The Whip is a Techno act. Their sound grew out of Hadouken! and The Music. Those roots explain a lot about how The Whip arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Does It Offend You, Yeah?, The Rapture, Siriusmo, Midnight Juggernauts and Fujiya & Miyagi, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Robert Smith, Asobi Seksu, Editors, Hadouken! and The Courteeners, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
