un.procedure are a Birmingham/Berlin based experimental-electronic outfit, made up of synth player Piera Onacko, drummer Nathan England-Jones and Mercury Prize nominated alto-saxophonist Cassie Kinoshi. Since forming in 2021, un.procedure have established their curious amalgam of musical influences, first taking form in their self-titled debut EP release in 2022. 

The band’s sound flies anywhere between exploratory psychedelic textures and doomy, guttural grooves. Within a bed of electronic-led soundscapes and the dark drone of processed saxophone, industrial beats thrum and pulse, calling to mind elements of 70s sci-fi cinema, kosmische Musik and the avant-garde jazz movement of the late 60s. Cemented by a backdrop of transportive collage projections created and controlled by visual artist Guri Bosh, their immersive live set has been described by The Arts Desk as a “narcotic and dystopian journey”. 

un.procedure have gained support from leftfield music stalwarts Stuart Maconie and Max Reinhardt, both performing live on Soho Radio and curating a playlist for BBC 6 Music’s flagship experimental show Freak Zone. Other recent activity has included the development of an audiovisual installation, Themory, which premiered at Manchester Jazz Festival and shows across Europe, including Fusion Festival, Supersonic Festival, Jazz Cafe and Radialsystem, Berlin. More recently, the band were commissioned to write for an extended ensemble, un.procedure plus, which will form the basis of their debut album set for release in 2025.
