Welsh producer Lewis Roberts aka Koreless announces his much-anticipated debut album Agor, due for release via Young / Remote Control Records. An album over five years in the making, Agor is announced with the single Joy Squad, a track that has a life of its own already.

Played by Caribou, Jamie xx and TNGHT in their BBC Radio1 Essential Mixes and with further support from Oli XL and HAAi, Joy Squad sparked a mass trawling from fans online for the track Koreless describes as his attempt to build a club rollercoaster that swallows you up and spits you out.

The Agor album cover features artwork by visual artist Daniel Swan. It is the result of a trip to the mountains near Snowdonia, where he and Roberts hiked and built a sequence of home-spun portal machines threading a path through the mountains into the forest. Its like the idea of physical objects which link together Swan says, “taking you on a specific geographical journey, acting like lenses to view the landscape differently, kind of an analogue of the way the tracks of the record might change the way you experience specific places in a certain way”.
