Wearing their early 1980s pop influences on their sleeve, they started to craft synthetic and mechanical songs layered with warm melodies, but those early demos received a tepid response, and Dark subsequently moved on to other projects. Their engineer Matt Didemus picked up the slack, partnering with Greenspan in a second incarnation of the Junior Boys. The new twosome assembled their first EP, <I>Birthday/Last Exit, </I> in 2003, followed by <I>High Come Down</I> (featuring a mix from Manitoba) in early 2004. By the time of their debut long player, 2004's <I>Last Exit, </I> they had perfected their blue-eyed Canadian electro soul sound (think Cabaret Voltaire duetting with the Lightning Seeds) -- wistful and dreamy pop with a robust machine-driven backing. - Nicholas BakerElectropopen720Thu, 26 Nov 2009 06:06:07 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7240203&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fjunior-boys%2Fplaylists.rss Junior Boys started out in 1999 as Jeremy Greenspan and Johnny Dark, a couple of Hamilton, Ontario, musicians joining the short, but perfectly formed, list of local bands and industry luminaries (Manitoba, Kieran "Four Tet" Hebden and U2's sometime producer Daniel Lanois).
