Special-K is so sincere it seems sarcastic. An Icelandic avant-garde musician and artist, her music has been described as “depresso pop bangers” and “sarcastic baby pop”. Coming from a background of visual arts and classical music, she combines different elements like pop culture, fashion and poetry to create a universe of her own. The music (which is all written, recorded and produced by her) is a mixture of rawness and sophistication, combining complex chord arrangements with amateur recorder flute solos etc. The videos were made in collaboration with a variety of talented artists and show an alien- and innocent looking girl in diverse circumstances. Themes like unfulfilled dreams of fame and glory, love and boredom in the age of social media and impostor syndrome are to be found in her songs, delivered with a cheeky naïvety wrapped in playful instrumentations.
