I’m fairly certain these are the same visuals…

After the set, my best friend and I were taking a break outside the ex-postal center that played host to Day for Night festival when we spotted Bjarki standing alone. Everybody around him didn’t seem to know who he was, so we figured it would be a good opportunity to let him know we loved the set.

After a thank you hug and a bit of chatting, my friend and I began saying goodbye only for him to interrupt with wanting to introduce us to his teammate who was just walking up. The friend was a huge man, and I quickly put it together that he had been the giant in the bodysuit having an exorcism on stage just 15 minutes earlier. He was friendly, but we could immediately tell he had some quirks up his sleeve.

The conversation flowed naturally, so I decided to broach the topic of the insanity visuals. Bjarki’s response was comically casual: “Oh yeah, my friend likes putting those together so we play them on the screens when we have them. I don’t really know what's on it to be honest.” I was shocked that he cared so little about a detail that would define the experience for a majority of attendees, but he let me know that DJing is really just a way to pay the bills and stay relevant, and he’d rather be at home in the studio.

Their story of how they had spent their day so far set the stage for a very bizarre night to come. They had gone to an (allegedly) legendary action figure store, as his friend was incredibly passionate about vintage toys. After picking out hundreds of dollars of action figures, they had to go buy a second suitcase to get them home to Iceland. After loading up the suitcase, the Hispanic family who owned the store invited them to a BBQ in their backyard for the afternoon, so of course they accepted and spent hours with them.

The hilarious moments just kept coming and coming as we got to know the duo better:
