Disclosure's third album stripped away the pop-star cameos that defined their breakthrough, betting everything on the dancefloor itself. Released into a world of shuttered clubs, Energy doubled down on warehouse rave fundamentals: UK garage skitters, techno's relentless pulse, house music's devotional repetition.

The Lawrence brothers turned inward to their DJ roots, crafting instrumental tracks designed for peak-time euphoria rather than radio playlists. It's both a creative reset and a purist manifesto, prioritising rhythm and texture over accessibility, club culture over crossover ambition.
