MUMBAI: Gorgon City has today released their brand new album Escape – the eagerly anticipated follow-up to their debut album Sirens in 2014 which sold over 70,000 UK copies, with the pair amassing over 675 million combined streams in their career so far. In line with the arrival, they have also released the official video for Let It Go featuring NAATIONS.
Let It Go follows on from previous NAATIONS collaboration Real Life (with Duke Dumont), a Balearic anthem which soon became the soundtrack to the 2017 Ibiza season. The video is directed by Mikhail Mehra, the Indian-American creative talent responsible for Major Lazer and DJ Snake’s Lean On. Focusing on Matt and Kye (Gorgon City) as they drive through the LA night, Let It Go sees two ambiguous female figures emerge from the duo’s vehicle, matching the brooding and mysterious mood of the production.
Escape showcases Gorgon City’s sonic diversity, ranging from more down tempo summer chill-out anthems, to more club-ready productions, including Go Deep, as well as Hear That feat D Double E and One Last Song with JP Cooper and Yungen.
