Get Physical invite Canadian electro-pop duo Junior Boys to DJ the next instalment in the Body Language mix series.

Known more for their sweet pop records Last Exit and So This Is Goodbye than their occasional DJ sets, Junior Boys are a surprising choice for the mix series, which has previously been helmed by M.A.N.D.Y., DJ T., Jesse Rose, Dixon and Château Flight.

Mixed in between sessions for the new Junior Boys LP, Body Language Six sees Matt Didemus and Jeremy Greenspan mapping their interests and influences, which span the Balearic (Prins Thomas, Studio), the minimal (Nine, Love Nine, Kreon & Lemo, Steadycam), the ravey (Radio Slave, Matthew Dear) and selections from Junior Boys friends and family (Kelley Polar, former Junior Boy Johnny Dark as Stereo Image, Junior Boys drummer f0st3r). There is also one previously unreleased Junior Boys track, ‘No Kinda Man’, born out of the So This Is Goodbye sessions, as well as JB-like electro-pop in the form of Bill Nelson’s ‘When Your Dream Of Perfect Beauty Comes True’ from 1982.

Tracklist

01 Sorcerer - Surfing At Midnight (Prins Thomas Miks)
02 Supermayer - Saturndays
03 Chelonis R. Jones - Deer In The Headlights (DJ Hell Remix)

12 Matthew Dear - You Know What I Would Do

Sun, 20 Apr 2008I feel that that Prins Thomas Miks is going to be a summer anthem (whether a big anthem or an underground anthem)

Tue, 18 Mar 2008I was really looking forward to this as i love the Junior Boys. I find when mixes are on offer from artists who aren't really DJ's that the results can be great. Examples are Erlend Oye's and Booka Shade's DJ Kicks albums that were both exciting and eclectic whilst still managing to sound coherent.

This however is not. It has some great tracks and does have its moments but as mentioned before is full of dodgy mixing and tracks that just don't go together.

Disappointing.

Mon, 03 Mar 2008Agreed - don't find much flow in this album and some of the mixing is a bit sketchy. Probably my least favourite body language

Fri, 29 Feb 2008Haha, I wish it was. But who owns otters anyway? ^^

I think the problem is that kind of mix is that it lacks coherence, the first things I did after hearing it was downloading the original tracks I liked on it. It's not that I'm not interested in some artists' tastes but you cannot make a good mix out of any list of tracks.

Just listen to the transition between Matthew Dear and Pushe: it's not only technically weak, it's also a weird choice to go from one to the other.
