Review

Disclosure's debut album, "Settle," dropped in 2013 and is an absolute gem of deep house, garage, and pop. The singles "Latch" with the velvety voice of Sam Smith, the addictive groove of "White Noise," and the catchy "You & Me" really highlight how these guys can get your feet moving while still serving up unforgettable hooks and melodies.

One of the most striking things about "Settle" is its lush production. The duo layers atmospheric soundscapes and sprinkles in clever vocal samples, making each track feel like an auditory dream. Collaborations with artists like AlunaGeorge, Ed Macfarlane, and Jessie Ware add a stunning variety, ensuring the album never feels monotonous. It's no wonder the album received critical acclaim and even snagged nominations for prestigious awards like the Mercury Prize and a Grammy.

"Settle" didn't just win over critics; it was a commercial smash hit too. The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and sold over 300,000 copies in the UK alone. In the US, it topped the *Billboard* Dance/Electronic Albums chart. Honestly, this album is a cornerstone in the electronic music landscape, setting a high bar for future artists and cementing Disclosure's place in music history. - Sienna
