Common Eider, King Eider is an enigmatic project that sits at the crossroads of dark ambient, drone, and experimental music, known for invoking hauntingly ethereal soundscapes that explore the metaphysical connection between the environment and the spirit. Often abbreviated as CEKE, the collective is renowned for its immersive compositions that blur the boundaries between music, art, and ritual. The project has been involved in the underground music scene for several years, gaining recognition for its unique approach to sound and atmosphere.

With releases like "A Wound of Body" and "Shrines for the Unwanted, Respite for the Cast Aside," Common Eider, King Eider has established a sonic palette that is both bleak and beautiful, crafting auditory experiences that are as visceral as they are meditative. Their works such as "Yearn" and "Palimpseste" showcase a deft blending of organic textures with minimalist instrumentation, enveloping the listener in an aural mist of melancholic reflection. Each release invites the audience into a world of somber tranquility and introspection, often touching upon themes of nature, decay, and the passage of time. As they continue to release projects like "Égrégore" and "Extinction," Common Eider, King Eider remains a bastion of avant-garde sound art, resonating with those who seek solace in the shadowy depths of music.
