das sich selbst und jeden floor antreibende aufeinanderhetzen von genres wie disco, funk, punk- und indierock ist nur eine von ihren disziplinen. ok, man darf es paradedisziplin nennen, immerhin ist das bandgefźge aus tomas barfod, dem drummer mit dj/producer-expertise, sŠnger/bassist tomas hoffding, der als bon homme eher in den subtileren gefilden des dance-pop zuhause ist und jeppe kjellberg, der die vergangenheit als jazz-gitarrist bereits mit seinem zappa-schnurri highlighted, ein genre-źbergreifender thinktank. andererseits gibt es einen wesentlichen grund, warum whomadewho, anders als geistesverwandte acts wie the rapture, lcd soundsystem oder radio 4, die so genannten nullerjahre źberlebt haben. es ist ihre unbedingte neugier gegenźber kontemporŠren clubsounds und ihr ansatz, einem eigenen song oft auch die funktionalitŠt des clubtracks einzuarbeiten.
