Biography

Volta Bureau is an electronic music group formed in Washington, DC consisting of Will Eastman, Outputmessage (Bernard Farley) and Micah Vellian (Miguel Lacsamana). Bernard and Miguel first meet as roommates, with Will coming into things through a shared studio, where the three of them routinely collaborated with each other on their own solo material. As things began to grow they realized they all shared a common thread musically and in the spring of 2011 decided to come together forming Volta Bureau.

Will Eastman is also co-owner of U Street Music Hall, Eastman’s releases and remixes have received support from a diverse range of DJs and media coverage by URB, NPR and BBC Radio 1, among others. Outputmessage is Bernard Farley: a vocalist, producer, DJ, record label owner, and math nerd. Starting out as a producer while working on a master’s degree in mathematics, Farley saw his first music release on Ghostly International at the age of 20. Miguel Lacsamana , aka Micah Vellian cut his teeth, in typical DC DIY fashion, writing, producing and performing in several indie bands (Stamen & Pistils, Metropolitan, Person). More recently, he has done production and co-writing work with fellow Volta Bureau member Will Eastman, Dmerit (with Outputmessage) and solo releases on Output Noise Records and Plant Music.

Volta Bureau draws on all three members’ musical tastes and experiences creating a hypnotic, cosmic take on house, techno and disco.
