Junior Senior

created by fondue

(thing) by revolution (5.7 mon) (print)   ?   (I like it!) 1 C! Fri Mar 07 2003 at 13:53:55

An unmistakable duo from the Jylland (aka Jutland) countryside of Northern Denmark. Together they've bent the musical rulebook in creating an unusual hybrid of equal parts soul, pop, punk, disco and hilarity. Junior is thin, Senior is fat. Junior is straight, Senior is gay. Juniors real name is Jesper Mortensen, Seniors real name is Jeppe Breum Larsen. They are both quite shy. Their broad influences range from the Cramps, B52s, through Lamont Dozier and the varying soul and garage sounds of Detroit to the classic British indie sound of the 90s.

Famous for their debut hit "Move your feet" from the album "D-D-Don't Don't Stop the Beat" which entered the UK singles chart at number 4 on 3rd March 2003. It has to be said that the music video for "Move your feet" is very funny and features not only themselves as pixelated sprites but also a manic orange squirrel.

Rumour has it that Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim) tried to sign Junior Senior to his Southern Fried label after hearing "Move your feet" for the first time. Mercury beat him to it.
