The Whip is an Electro band from Manchester, UK, formed in 2006. The band members are Danny Saville, Lil Fee, Nathan Sudders and Bruce Carter. In 2006, they released both Frustration and Trash. This was soon followed in 2007 by the release of three singles through a selection of labels; Muzzle No.1, Divebomb and Sister Siam.
The band’s debut album, ‘X Marks Destination’, was released on Southern Fried Records on March 24th 2008. The album was preceded by the re-release of a newly recorded version of Trash.
Amari is a band formed in 1996, after a an odd idea of Dariella and Pasta.
They were curious to see what could happen if weird mutations were applied on hip hop music. With nothing but a sampler and tons of teen-aged spleen, these guys started a long trip made of concerts and music tapes: and it worked.
In 1999 they released the split project “Il contigente” together with the band “21”: a pure naughtily hip-hop debut. After this first experience, the high-flyer guys included in the band two new members:a bass player, Cero, and a dj, H.C. Rebel. That's how they started to play together a mix of hip-hop, electronics and rock, in a psychedelic and dark mood: the result is the album "Corporali”, published in 2000 by Riotmaker Records, which is actually their label.
In 2007 Amari released their last album “Scimmie d’Amore”, distributed in all the country (and also in iTunes) by Warner Music Italy; the band loves to define this their “black album”. The black cover and Love are the Leitmotiv of this record, which embodies their growth as musicians. The first single is “Le gite fuori porta”, introduced by a videoclip by the Bonsai Ninja Collective, which features some of Amari’s friends: Frankie Hi-Nrg, Syria, Crookers.
In the meanwhile their tour goes on, but the guys are once again on the set to shoot their second clip, “30 anni che non ci vediamo” directed by DanXzen and sponsored by Emerica (their wear sponsor): a stop motion video, fulfilled with color drips and nightlight games.
