Whenever i think of what else Slovenia has, Apathy Apartment comes to mind. Not every band has to be 100% screamo all the time, there are some things that can be soft, eclectic and relaxing, which AA did offer at the time.

AA was an electronic duo formed in Ljubljanja and in Zagreb, respectively. The duo gathered around in 2015, teased their first single and then dropped their only self-titled EP, played one or two shows before calling it quits... and it lasted less than a year.

Consisting only three tracks (with the exception of 'dank' memes and Jake Gylenhall references in the titles), the EP serves some of the distinctive emo/synthwave bops i have ever heard. The Nine Inch Nails/Bowery Electric is definitely prominent throughout these tracks, yet their own flair keeps them to the ground on their own uniqueness, with an addition of Kaja Skrbinšek's ethereal vocals on the third track which gives an immense amount of charm of this sweet little EP. 

What could've been an adventurous journey for the duo has diminished way too soon. Apathy Apartment's music is eclectic, atmospheric and charming to the point of making a name for themselves in Slovenia's otherwise small DIY scene.
