"W.I.T. (Whatever It Takes) is a new 3 piece girl group that has become
the cover girls of the new electro scene. Within a year of their
creation, they have appeared on the cover of Billboard, Fader, and BPM
and stands to bring the Electroclash scene to a much wider audience.
Their job is to deliver glamour, excitement and a touch of sex to a
genre that is overly intellectual and loaded with attitude. In early
2001, the girls approached Larry Tee about doing a group and won him
over with their impromptu version of the Cars "Just What I Needed". This
led them to perform it at the first Electroclash festival, garnering
international attention. Virtually every lifestyle/fashion magazine in
the US and England has featured them and now they are gettin ready to
deliver the much awaited album on Mogul Electro. The album entitled
"Whatever It Takes", will appear on Mogul Electro and will be
highlighted during their performance at this years' Electroclash 2002. "
"'W.I.T' or 'Whatever It Takes' are the latest artists to capture the
media's growing attention with all things oozing with electroclash. A
three piece Warholian girl group who play pop flavoured electro, W.I.T
promises to "not let integrity get in the way of their careers". This
mantra doesn't really do justice to the clever music and performance
that go into their work. Their music is relentlessly catchy and their
choreographed dance moves have impressed thousands in their first year.
Major labels are already courting them. But where did these girls come
from and how did they explode onto the scene so quickly? In the summer
of 2001, Melissa Burns, singer, Adam Ant obsessee and super fox of the
group, approached New York hipster Larry Tee who she had known for some
time with the idea of producing songs for her newly formed duo. Having
already gained a glamourous rep in the mandatory circles, Melissa's
penchant for acting and looking gorgeous has landed her roles in over 30
major pop videos - which include artists such as Elton John, Whitney
Houston and Bryan Adams. With her back up sisters Christine Doza and
Danielle Top, they won Larry over with their rendition of the Car's
classic 'Just What I Needed'. Larry Tee - of Mogul Electro Records; the
producer of the Electroclash festival; and writer of Ru Paul's smash hit
'Supermodel (You Better Work)' - started writing and assembling songs
for them to record. The legendary Joe's Pub in Manhattan, NYC, was the
site of their debut performance, and their confident stage manner and
slick moves blew the unsuspecting crowd away. Their next appearance was
alongside the queen of slut grunge Peaches and current electro stars
Fischerspooner at the New York Electroclash festival in October 2001.
Since then they have performed at leading fashion designer Jeremy
Scott's after-show party as well as at a plethora of venues and events
across the city. "
Who writes this pap?
Yes, let's relive that awesome decade known as the 80's by emboding
selfishness and greed and call it underground. ARgh. Great fucking
republican conspiracy, you fashionista sluts. Fuckin laaammmmme. I'm all
about fun, but damn... Shameless shallowness doesn't move me. Maybe I
should just be a gay cokehead...
ok, that's it...
I obviously need a friend...
