After playing keyboards in a number of more or less failed indie bands, Stockholm-based Erik Ceder decided to create something on his own. He built a small studio and connected his warmest analogue synthesisers, old drum machines and vintage effect boxes. The result is General Procedures, which he describes as “cold and dreamy indie electronica covered in arctic snow”.
The General Procedures sound draws influence from a range of styles such as electronica, indie-tronica and shoegaze creating vast sonic landscapes. Warm synth tones sway through delicate melodies with energy injected into the sound by the gently driving beats. The debut EP, titled Eloquent dropped March 1st and features 4 works of dreamy lo-fi indie instrumentals equally at home on the dance floor as they are on car stereos late at night.
