I've never been a huge fan of electronica, but in the last few months several bands have drawn my attention. One of them is Canadian based Junior Boys, whose influences include minimal techno and contemporary hip hop. So This Is Goodbye is their second album, and is remarkably different from the first. The first album was heavily influenced by original member Johnny Dark, who split from the duo just before the release of Last Exit. Since then founding member Jeremy Greenspan has collaborated with Matt Didemus resulting in their second full length LP.
It's not groundbreaking stuff, but soothing; a wine drinkers electronica for those late Friday nights at home with friends. Nothing jumps out and screams for attention, but that's a good thing. It allows So This Is Goodbye to slide on through the night, and you'll only have to set the volume once.
