Sneaky Pete's

**update** In the same week as this show, Cut Hands will perform with Jeff Mills in Tokyo to 10,000 people.

Cut Hands is a solo project of William Bennett (pictured), the guiding force behind the recently rested – but far from retired – Whitehouse.

Bennett will always be known first and foremost for the scummy, excoriating power electronics sound that has been Whitehouse’s bread and butter since the late 1970s, but he’s always explored his own highly idiosyncratic path through music – a truth to which anyone who’s seen him spin italo and hi-NRG records as DJ Benetti will vigorously attest.

Cut Hands finds Bennett indulging his love of the African (particularly Ghanaian and Congolese) percussion that he has avidly collected over the years; its sound is an aggressive but dizzyingly psychedelic composite of machine and acoustic vaudou rhythm, carefully constructed at his home studio over the course of several years.
