"Under the Sun" (Live at the Pitchfork Music Festival)

Video: Junior Boys: "Under the Sun" (Live at the Pitchfork Music Festival)

Canada's Junior Boys perform "Under the Sun" under the sun. For early shows they were just a duo, with programmed beats and sequencers filling most of the space and Jeremy Greenspan's guitar the only traditional instrument. In their set-up here, the electronics are further augmented with live drums. But then they leave the stage Kraftwerk-style, with the music continuing as they set down their instruments, wave goodbye, and make their last exit. (Thanks again to Optimus for making this video possible.)
