Fresh from an extremely busy festival season The Whip have announced details of a massive UK tour as well as an exciting new remix album.
The Manchester four piece were born with the adrenaline rush of the Hacienda in their veins, and their electro-rock has caught the ears of influential stables such as French label Kitsune. Now signed to UK based indie Southern, the band are renowned for an ultra tight live set.
Debut album ‘X Marks Destination’ was a brilliant mix of indie rock and dance influences, recalling New Order at their peak. Now the band have invited some of their friends to re-interpret the tracks for a new remix album, which will be available from iTunes and Beatport.
Titled ‘Remix Marks Destination’, the album is available now and features a cast that can boast such acts as Van She, Black Ghosts, Hearts Revolution, Black Affair, Crookers, Hadouken!, South Central and more.
In addition to this the band have announced plans to make the live experience even more hi-tech. Fans will be able to buy a USB stick with the gig of their choice uploaded onto it – fancy!
