Escape (Gorgon City album)
2018 studio album by Gorgon City

Escape is the second studio album by English electronic music production duo Gorgon City. It was released on 10 August 2018 through Virgin EMI Records. The album produced six singles, and includes collaborations with Vaults, Duke Dumont, Naations, Kamille, JP Cooper, Lulu James, D Double E, and Josh Barry, among others.
Background
The duo released the first single, "All Four Walls", featuring vocals from British band Vaults, in April 2016. Around the time of the song's release, the duo announced their second studio album, under the title Kingdom and that it was expected to come in two parts, with the first part being released in August 2016. Furthermore, the duo said that they were to release a new song every three weeks.
Critical reception
Thomas H Green of The Arts Desk found the album to be "no worse – and may even be slightly better – than its predecessor", and wrote that its "best tracks have a zest and bounce that's contagious". Green concluded that the duo "adhere to a cool deep house sensibility, deeply flavoured with UK bass culture, never wandering into the crass corridors of EDM". Hannah Mylrea of NME commented that the album "picks up exactly where their debut Sirens left off" with "a string of catchy tunes, though it's also a record of musical experimentation", highlighting "Hear That", "One Last Song" and "Night Drive".
