Slow Celebration - Fun

Music Video

Wiki

Synopsis

Slow Celebration's "Fun" turns a simple night out into a series of absurd, deadpan play sessions. Mads D. Kristiansen and Esben Andersen move through club-like spaces and colorful settings, dancing, fencing, relaxing, and throwing themselves into a ball pit. Their exaggerated physical energy is paired with remarkably serious expressions, creating a surreal contrast with the repeated invitation to enjoy yourself. The video feels less like a conventional narrative than a stylish, playful showcase for the duo's chemistry and eccentric sense of humor.

Factoids & Trivia

  • "Fun" premiered on January 13, 2014, alongside Slow Celebration's debut EP, "Worlds."
  • Slow Celebration was a spontaneous collaboration between Mads D. Kristiansen of Reptile Youth and Esben Andersen of Rangleklods. The project reportedly began after the pair decided to make music together following a night out in Copenhagen.
  • The duo completed the EP in less than a month. Kristiansen and Andersen wrote, produced, mixed, and mastered the release themselves.
  • The video's visual joke comes from the contrast between the pair's energetic behavior and their controlled, almost expressionless faces.
  • The clip includes fencing, club-style dancing, lounging, and a brightly colored ball pit, using deliberately playful activities rather than a conventional storyline.
  • The song's musical character was described at the time as a blend of alternative electronics, early-1980s synth-pop, rap, R&B, and psychedelic influences.
  • The production team included cinematographer Jacob Moller, editor Adda Elling, colorist Hannibal Lang, and producer Mik Frikke-Grundahl.
