Koreless @ Sneaky Pete's

Preview by Stu Todd | 29 Jul 2012

Sneaky Pete's has long been the purveyor of a forward-thinking music policy and a venue for UK-based artists and, with that in mind, their festival line up is quite possibly their finest to date. One of the most eagerly-anticipated of these will be the return of Glasgow based Welshman Lewis Roberts, otherwise known as Koreless, who has spent this summer doing the rounds at some of Europe's top festivals but who will scale things back when he joins local support Telfort for an intimate shindig.

Lewis's productions are perfectly suited to the club’s Night Music project which focuses on live electronic performances, existing in an intersecting Venn diagram space where club meets gig, that will allow his signature sound of a wide spectrum of mellow dubstep coupled with the lush electronica to be best experienced. His latest release Lost in Tokyo on Vase, Jacques Greene’s label, has been gaining a lot of plays of late and is a fine example of his approach, featuring low prominence beats with the emphasis instead being placed on the atmosphere he is able to create with simple melodies and rich reverb.
