Guy and Howard Lawrence, the brotherly electronic duo Disclosure, have never been shy about putting their influences on full display. Classic house, UK garage, hip-hop, and 2-step have always been central to their formula. On *Ecstasy*, an EP of club-calibrated tunes that comes on the heels of their Khalid collaboration \"Know Your Worth,” Disclosure adds a whole lot more to their mix of inspirations. They sample vintage disco from Aquarian Dream on the title track, tweak funk and folk sounds from Cameroon and Niger on “Tondo” and “Etran,” and recontextualize the soulful backing vocals of Boz Scaggs’ “Lowdown” on “Expressing What Matters.”
