Notes: Liner Note Author: Drew Barrymore. According to the liner notes, WHIP IT: MUSIC FROM THE MOTION PICTURE is Drew Barrymore's "mix tape for you!" That's right, Drew Barrymore has made a mixtape just for you, and it is every bit as sweet, punchy, and girly as her 2009 directorial debut. The disc is a blend of familiar old standbys (including a glittering remix of the Chordettes' "Lollipop") and indie acts (among them Barrymore's ex-boyfriend Fabrizio Moretti's band Little Joy), achieving the kind of safely edgy balance that embodies the Fox Searchlight aesthetic (that is, it's quirky enough to appeal to the cool kids, but never strays too far from the mainstream). If this soundtrack achieves anything, it serves to push a healthy handful of relatively obscure female artists into the mainstream. "Boys Wanna Be Her," Peaches' saucy retread of AC/DC's "Dirty Deeds," the Raveonettes' frosty dream pop offering "Dead Sound," and the Ettes' angular, gritty "Crown of Age" find this soundtrack at its exuberant best.
