Picking the next single off their critically acclaimed #1 debut album ‘Settle’ was likely a bit of a headache forDisclosure. With a wealth of captivatingly slick cuts to choose from, including collaborations with some of the country’s most unique vocalists, the Lawrence brothers have decided to keep their latest release a truly family affair - ‘F For You’, released August 18th on PMR Records, features Howard Lawrence on vocals, the first time either of the duo has assumed full singing duties on a track. In another first, the accompanying video steps away from the character-led narratives of previous singles like ‘You & Me’ and ‘White Noise’ to bring Disclosure themselves on to our screens. Lending an up-close glimpse at the pair’s exceptional live set-up, ‘F For You’ provides the soundtrack as we witness the kind of performance that has entranced audiences across the planet over the past year or so. Upon release, ‘Settle’ has wasted no time in becoming a global sensation, and ha

Having steadily built a name for themselves as purveyors of a standard of music production way beyond their tender years, Disclosure have spent a solid couple of years honing their prolific output, which includes two Top 10 singles so far in 2013. Now they are delighted to announce that their debut album, ‘Settle’, will be released on June 3rd through PMR Records (home to, among others, Jessie Ware and Julio Bashmore). For a while it seemed like the chain-of-command in Britain’s dance establishment was forever set in stone. The Chemical Brothers, Basement Jaxx and Fatboy Slim would headline festivals from now until the end of days. The only way a new UK dance act could reach millions of people was to get a song on Masterchef . But in less than a year, Disclosure have turned all that on its head. The most successful British dance act in a generation, they’ve not only soared to the top of the charts and sold out venues across the world – they’ve also changed the nature of British

Off the back of storming the UK charts once again with latest single ‘White Noise feat AlunaGeorge’, Disclosure are extremely excited to announce their debut album, ‘Settle’, out June 3rd on PMR Records. It will be preceded by new single ‘You & Me’, which is available to buy from iTunes and physically from June 3rd. The first taste of new material from the album, ‘You & Me’ features Eliza Doolittle and, as you’d expect, yet again proves Disclosure’s ability in bringing the best out of their vocal collaborators, with Eliza’s lustrous vocal immersed among Disclosure’s trademark 2-step garage rhythms, once again showing beyond doubt their capacity in delivering yet another anthem alongside previous singles ‘Latch’ and ‘White Noise’.Having steadily built a name for themselves as purveyors of a standard of music production way beyond their tender years, they’ve spent a solid couple of years honing their already prolific output into what’s sure to be one of the debuts of 2013 – in

Disclosure are back. Returning on March 17 with new single ‘White Noise’, featuring vocals from one half of another of the UK’s most exciting new acts Aluna Francis of AlunaGeorge. Within one week of launching the new track as Zane Lowe’s Hottest Record on Radio 1, ‘White Noise’ has racked up over 750,000 plays online - topping both the Hype Machine and Elbo.ws music charts, has been playlisted at Kiss Radio and enjoyed over 30 plays between Radio 1 and 1Xtra, had support from 6Music and XFM, as well as landing Zane’s ROTW this week – all 8 weeks upfront of impact. This incredible and instant reaction to this young duo’s latest offering prove that Disclosure are well on their way to owning 2013. ‘White Noise’ follows the amazing success of Disclosure’s last single ‘Latch’, which was a-list at Radio 1, 1Xtra and Kiss, peaking at number 11 in the UK charts, staying in the top 30 for 15 weeks and going silver (sales in excess of 330,000 worldwide). ‘Latch’ also notched up several numbe
