Facit is a duo from Göteborg, Sweden, consisting of Joakim Karlsson and Mai Nestor. Facit is quintessential melancholic Swedish minimal synth wave at its finest.

'They make everyday wave, reflecting the life of the lonely people in the north. Their sound is sparse and minimalistic, warm and cold at the same time. They are using analog synthesizers and drum machines from the past like the Korg Mono/Poly and Boss Dr. Rhythm DR55. They create melancholic melody and synchronized rhythm. The music is frozen in a minor key. Both members take turns on the microphone, singing their songs in different languages like swedish, english and french' (source: http://www.wavinghands.net/facit/).
