The response was too good, and the food was outrageous-- ApSci returns to Monkey Town for purely indulgent reasons... with a set featuring glitched-out opera, sing-along choruses, and some rigorous delay & pitch-shift effects tweeked with a Wii remote. Not to mention ApSci's signature stop-motion videos filling up the 4-wall display. Some of ApSci's favorite scenes from their favorite directors may sneak their way on screen as well-- that and the Full Monkey Town Menu at your disposal!

Also on the bill is Ghost Society (Denmark).

ApSci perform electro-pop with indie rock & hip-hop undertones. This live set will feature vocal loops, live sampling, sing-along choruses, beats & rhymes, a little opera, and some rigorous delay & pitch-shift effects tweeked with a Wii remote, along with ApSci's signature stop-motion videos filling up the screen...

Featured in this year's URB Next 100, ApSci's new album Best Crisis Ever (out now in digital stores) is intricately designed and immensely fun. Dana's warm voice is a versatile instrument that adds an alluring depth and charm to Ra's complex, detailed production and biting lyricism. NPR’s All Songs Considered called ApSci's single "Crazy Crazy Insane," “incredibly contagious."

In the family of Gnarls Barkley & Santigold, ApSci blend elements from electronica, pop, hip-hop and R&B into quirky electro-pop that has appeal to everyone from mainstream radio listeners to underground heads chasing the latest beat. If this is the next generation of pop music, ApSci can only be considered one of its brightest new faces.
