Based on the critical acclaim of their 2006 LP So This Is Goodbye the Canadian electro-pop duo Jeremy Greenspan and Johnny Dark, aka Junior Boys, will release an EP of remixes through Domino Records in April.
Titled Dead Horse, the EP brings together five artists from completely different fields and musical backgrounds to get their hands at some of the stand out tracks from the duo's second album.
London-based formation Hot Chip contributed to the EP by reworking "In the Morning" alongside Detroit techno legend Carl Craig who provides his reinterpretation of "Like A Child". Other names include U.K. dubstep producer and Hyperdub label founder Kode9, ambient wunderkind Marsen Jules (aka Martin Juhls), as well as Tensnake (aka Marco Niemerski) of German techno outfit Arp Aubert.
