Inside The Rockers Studio: Junior Boys

You should be all over So This Is Goodbye by now but, if not, hit MySpace and stream the trickly synth, blip bass, and aspirated come-ons of "In The Morning." Better yet, here's a free MP3:

Junior Boys - "In The Morning" (MP3)

It's our favorite cut on Junior Boys' infectious sophomore showing -- and it's dead sexy. Seriously, this is the blend of melodic, electro-yearn and art-in-the-machine that the post-Postal Service set should lap up like lattes.

We wondered: who are these mysterious Boys? What is their process? What makes them tick? Boys' vocalist Jeremy Greenspan took a stab at the famed Bernard Pivot questionairre for our ongoing Inside The Rockers Studio feature. And now we can rest at night.
