Lovewhip’s new album, Love Electric, is a futuristic dance party complete with unicorns, icebots, intrigue, electronic sex toys, and rock'n'roll! Each song on the album is chock full of catchy hooks, mixing dancehall reggae with disco, pop and rock. The album was produced by Jake Zavracky (producer/composer, of the bands Cyanide Valentine and Quick Fix), and recorded in Boston and Brooklyn.

PRESS QUOTES
“Hit it, but don’t you ever quit. Love Electric is a ride on dance cloud 9 that will keep you up until you realize the light reflecting off the disco ball is actually a sunbeam. While less-original party rockers will find one groove and play it to death, Lovewhip takes seemingly disparate styles of dance music and finds a way to bring them together into an album that isn’t the least bit repetitive.

Album opener, “Love Electric,” blends shiny, modern production techniques with X-Ray Spex attitude (and sax styling) and a pulse worthy of the Talking Heads. Short musical interludes blend the space between songs, making transitions like the one from dubby “Becky Oh” to Justice-style synth pop number “Wrecking Machine” completely natural. “Chauffeur Blues” is a classic blues cover providing a short respite between two high-energy tracks at the end of the album. The bare bones setup adds a nice contrast to the glossy mix present everywhere else on the CD.

Lovewhip back up their unique album with unique promotion. Want to throw an end of the decade party? Check out their website for house show prices or an opportunity to buy a guitar used to record the album.”
