Living through a pandemic, Jaga Jazzist’s track ‘Apex’ takes up the role of a soundtrack for the merciless pressure of quarantine and Isolation. The perfect accompaniment for a journey into the dark reaches of our sanity, where time just floats, no matter how hard the clock works to move on.
Because we all felt it – the creeping malaise tightening its grip. And then a feeling of defiance. The need to break free from the restrictions and the isolation. To express ourselves and relentlessly fight on, no matter what comes in our way. No matter how alone we are.
