SEXY LAZER — Ape Escape

Our favorite Icelander is back on Riotvan. Sexy Lazer! His midlife crisis is over, and he's diving headfirst into a new chapter—reinvented and re-energized. Honestly, we can’t quite put it into a box, but that’s exactly what makes it so thrilling. It’s pop, it’s lo-fi, it’s electro, it’s indie. It’s pretty much everything we think is cool. With Ape Escape, he not only throws a nod to his roots (the pros will know) but also opens a gateway to a world of playful details that leave us absolutely delighted. This EP is a concept, a performance, and so much more—without ever feeling forced or pretentious. Pure authenticity from start to finish, culminating in… a film. Yep, you heard that right. Not just a music video, but a proper short film that does this whole thing justice. And now, suddenly, it all makes sense. Or maybe it doesn’t. But that’s exactly why we love Sexy Lazer. A wild-haired whirlwind who does whatever the hell he wants. And for that, we say: Thank you!
