Disclosure at Heaven

Awaiting their forthcoming vinyl release White Noise ft AlunaGeorge, Disclosure sold out their headline gig on 7^th March at London superclub Heaven – and they truly tore the place down with their sound.

The brothers Lawrence, Sam and Howard from South London, supply music you can’t help but dance to. They are able to bounce off each other’s musical imaginations, bringing together electronic and acoustic beats into a fully live experience. The crowd was exhilarated, with the music energising their every step. As soon as you could hear the familiar 80s drum beats you knew it was vocalist Sam Smith’s time to shine with his flowing melodies. Their song Latch sent the crowd into overload, a singing and dancing frenzy.

Most of their songs were coming from their latest EP The Face, but the duo’s set list was also mixed with refixed club classics.

At last, but far from least, AlunaGeorge joined the stage for the final song, their latest single White Noise, currently at 2^nd place in the UK singles chart. In combining her unique, London-soulful sound and the Lawrences’ ultimate production skills, they have created a definitive “club banger”. The tune screamed disco and the crowd responded phenomenally, shouting back every lyric.

Disclosure more than impressed with a mix of dance classics and sure-to-be future classics: they were getting down with the grooves, and so were we.
