Agency-X | uk

The band consists of two operatives,
San Francisco-based singer/songwriter/producer davidmahr and Swedish keyboardist/composer
Lars Wallden. With influences spanning the history of synthesizer music-from 80s synthpop to eurodisco and back-the duo's mutual electronica obsessions merge flawlessly on their debut album, despite the fact that the band mates have never met in person.

This deliciously danceable music is the fruit of an organic synthesis that begins online, of all places. The band mates work separately in studios in San Francisco and the commercial port town of Karlshamn, Sweden, and trade music files over the Internet.

Agency-X's front man, davidmahr, has released solo projects on his own Delicious Records label including 1997's No Drama! and 1999's Lost & Found albums as well as the three-song EP Only You, featuring the title Yazoo cover track and the international club hit "Sugar Candi (What You Mean to Me)."
Lars Wallden, the keyboard-programming mastermind behind Agency-X, is best known for keeping alive the machine-made, Clarke-influenced sound with his Swedish synthpop band AvantGarde, which he started in 1990.
