“Of all the electro pop artists lately , Dansette Junior seem the least contrived, and judging by ‘Drums n Bass‘, have the big songs too” -
Steve Lamacq - Radio 1
The brainchild of singer/producer/songwriter Will Hunts alter ego Dansette Junior, was borne through a chance encounter on the ’High Road‘,
in the not so salubrious area of Kentish Town, North London, with like minded Johnny Mac(synth geekery n bass) and Graham Gaffney(drums

Steve Lamacq - Radio 1
The brainchild of singer/producer/songwriter Will Hunts alter ego Dansette Junior, was borne through a chance encounter on the ’High Road‘,
in the not so salubrious area of Kentish Town, North London, with like minded Johnny Mac(synth geekery n bass) and Graham Gaffney(drums
n machines)
They seem to be three of London’s hottest boys right now, - ‘armed with synths and a cross between Damon Albarn and Calvin Harris style
vocals (seriously)’ - London Lite, with their anarchic live shows, twisted comedy lyrics and sonic assault, that has since landed them with a
recording deal with Columbia Records / Sony Music.
The record label was drawn to their unique sound through their first sonic offering ‘Drums and Bass’ which is fast becoming a cult classic,
combining hypnotic comedy-sequence lyrics, analogue synths and computer geekery to create a unique blend of edgy electro pop.
This adventurous musical mix together with some highly-charged live shows across London, was noticed immediately by new fan and label-
mate, dance pop superstar Calvin Harris, who invited Dansette Junior to support him on his arena tour during late 2009 in both UK and
Europe. « hide |
