Jutland, Denmark (1998 – 2008)

Junior Senior formed in 1998 in Jutland, Denmark when Senior (b. Jeppe Laursen December 25, 1977) and Junior (b. Jesper Mortensen Feburary 7, 1979) got back together after their previous band, entitled Ludo X/Ludox, broke up in 1995. Both Junior and Senior grew up in Jutland. The band signed a deal with Danish label Crunchy Frog Records.

The band released their debut album “D-D-Don’t Stop The Beat” in 2003. The first single, “Move your feet”, was one of the most played songs on Danish radio and eventually climbed the charts in over thirteen countries, including Australia, France, the UK and Denmark. The single is also available on the soundtrack of the popular American television show Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. Additionally, it has also been included in the US version of the hit dance game DDR Extreme for the Playstation 2. It is often associated with its pixelated music video, created by the art collective Shynola, which is seen in the VH1 commercial for “I Love the 90’s: Part Deux” and in the background of its Dance Dance Revolution: DDR Extreme dance.

The follow up single, “Rhythm Bandits”, made the singles charts in the UK and Australia, and was included in the soundtrack of the game FIFA 2004.

D-D-Don’t Stop The Beat was included in several publications’ “Best Albums of 2003” lists, including Rolling Stone, NME, Entertainment Weekly and Blender. The Sunday Chronicle in San Francisco rated “Move Your Feet” as the single of the year, calling it “the best song ever”.
