Welsh Producer Koreless Returns With "Droids"
In July of 2021, Welsh Producer Lewis Roberts aka Koreless released his highly-anticipated debut album “Agor.” An album over five years in the making, ‘Agor’ was released to critical acclaim and is widely regarded as one of the best electronic records of 2021.
One year on, Koreless returns with his new single, “Droids,” taking his hyper-polished productions to new depths and picking up where the final single of ‘Agor’ left off. It’s a carefully designed soundscape that journeys through multiple layers of electro and techno; marking the beginning of a new phase for the producer “that has been subtly shaping British dance music” (Crack Magazine).

Dry Cleaning Share "Anna Calls From The Arctic"
London-based 4-piece Dry Cleaning have released their second single, “Anna Calls From The Arctic,” off their highly-anticipated second album, ‘Stumpwork,’ out 21 October, via 4AD.
“The lyrics were partly inspired by phone calls with a friend who was living and working in the Arctic,” explain the band. ”The song developed from a keyboard, bass and clarinet jam. This then took shape during our pre-recording sessions with John Parish and Joe Jones in Bristol and finalized at Rockfield studios a month later, with some musical inspiration coming from the dramatic scores of John Barry.
