Alongside the announcement, the Swedish DJ, producer and label boss has shared the first single and title track from the project, 'Explorer' — a punchy peak-time banger featuring searing bass and a moody vocal asking: "So whatchu gonna do?".

The new record is said to be inspired by "permutations of Adam's headspace", exploring the producer's interests in sci-fi, the creative journey and more.
