On this view of human freedom, our place in the universe is quite distinctive

"Apathy-Rise" Niche Trio (ft. Pierre Janssen) / "Deadlines" Niche Trio

“Apathy-Rise,” a parody of Coldplay’s Paradise by Niche Trio featuring Pierre Janssen, humorously explores existential themes from The Stranger and Antigone. It contrasts Meursault’s indifference with Antigone’s defiance, highlighting their opposing responses to absurdity and fate. Janssen’s feature adds commentary on their shared tragic outcomes, blending humor with literary insight. “Deadlines,” a parody of Drake’s Headlines, similarly examines existential struggle and inevitability in both works. Through clever wordplay and philosophical reflection, Niche Trio (Tysei Murao, Felix Janssen, Gabriel Reque Cruz) delivers an engaging and concise take on these timeless tragedies.
