FROM THE CREATORS OF UNTOLD STORY, HOUSE OF FRIENDS AND CHASING SUN(SETS)

THE MONOLITH PROJECT PRESENTS

APE DRUMS

Friday, July 31, Chasing Sun(Sets) opens its 2026 series after dark at Kashmir for their first Annual Pop-up — built around one city and one community.

Houston-born, Miami-based Eric Alberto-Lopez — known worldwide as APE DRUMS — has spent a decade turning Caribbean rhythm into global dance music. His breakout single “Bashment” helped set the course for modern dancehall-electronic fusion, and “Mutant Brain” — hand-picked by Spike Jonze for his worldwide Kenzo campaign — carried the sound from festival stages into popular culture.

Since 2019, Ape has stood as one-third of MAJOR LAZER alongside Diplo and Walshy Fire, contributing to the group’s Grammy-nominated era and records featuring J Balvin, Anitta and Nicki Minaj — while his solo work has pushed deeper into raw, percussive Afro tech, including “GQTECH” with South African gqom pioneer DJ Lag.

Big-room energy, sound-system roots, and the drums the name promises — inside Kashmir, for one night only.
