I am following the wave scene for over two years now. Finally I made the decision to fly out to Krakow, Poland, to interview the artists and photograph and film the happening. Liquid Ritual is a Label from the scene, they have been invited to Krakow by Prozak 2.0, which is a well known electro club in Krakow. Liquid Ritual is run by wave producers from the UK and Poland. It has been the 7th time they were hosted in Poland.
A mini documentation will follow up my photo series in the next weeks. Big shoutout to HNRK(Team Sesh), Kareful and Stohou(Liquid Ritual).

"Every once in a while, a genre will rise from the murky musical swamp of sounds and styles and grab you by the short and curlies, and right now, that genre is wave music. Based largely on Soundcloud for now, it contains elements of dubstep, jungle, house, techno and hip-hop, but it has merged into a distinct new genre.
A DIY community born on the internet that’s gradually taking up IRL space across Europe and the US, wave music is on the rise. Chances are it’s in your musical DNA already: wave sits in the venn overlap of pretty much all of our electronic and hip hop collections and playlists, yet it’s something distinct and special.
The spacy 808 beat swag of trap, the subby rumbles and halftime pace of dubstep, the dense emotion of sad boy rap, the icy melancholy of witch house, the sci-fi savoir faire of instrumental grime, the loose formula-free experimentalism of the LA beat scene and the synthetic aesthetic of vapor wave… If any of those genres have touched you, wave will, too. The attitude and spirit behind the music heightens wave’s allure: elevating it from an internet genre to a tangible movement, artists who are centrally located (usually in London) are hosting events, and there’s a definite egoless attitude with artists sharing tips, supporting each other’s releases and creating collectives."
