Baron von Luxxury interviews Midnight Juggernauts
I’ll make no bones about being a huge fan of Midnight Juggernauts. So when the opportunity came to interview them before their show with this small French band they’re touring with, I hopped like a Kangaroo. Get it? They’re Australian. Har.
Anyway, here is my interview with Midnight Juggernauts from backstage at their show with Justice in New York City last month, in which they discuss their relationship with fellow electro-Aussies like Cut Copy, the origins of “Into the Galaxy” and the excellence that is ELO’s “Time” album.
Want more? We’ve been throwing MJ tracks around all year on DiscoWorkout.com, if you missed those posts go catch up and grab some of the best music of 2007 here here and here.
Special thanks to Alex from Magnum for setting it up, and to Jonathan from ScribeMedia for shooting and editing it beautifully.
xx,
Baron von Luxxury
