The Whip

Techno
Techno

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, New Young Pony Club, Siriusmo and Midnight Juggernauts, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Sons and Daughters, Robert Smith, Asobi Seksu, Editors and Hadouken!, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 24 connections around The Whip, reaching back through Hadouken! and forward to Sons and Daughters.
