Featuring Dicte with Kasper Rasmussen, Mika Vandborg, Mads Reinhold, Kasper Tranberg, and more. Let's Escape celebrates life, love, and bold choices.
Dicte's LET'S ESCAPE is a fearless and deeply personal exploration of life's complexities, created with boldness, reflection, and a celebration of individuality.
The album's ten tracks reflect Dicte's evolution as a songwriter, exploring themes of love, resilience, and self-empowerment. Written after the passing of her mother, the music balances moments of tender introspection with unrestrained energy. Songs like the title track, "Let's Escape," embody a liberating spirit: "We may not be Barbie and Ken, but it's still you and me till the end." Other standout tracks, such as the defiant "Shoot a Hole in the World" and the poignant closer "Starchild," encourage listeners to live boldly, take risks, and embrace life's uncertainties.
The album also delves into universal truths about relationships and identity. Dicte reflects on complicated familial bonds and the way art can open up otherwise unspoken conversations: "Many people feel they should love unconditionally, but those feelings can sometimes feel lonely. Music helps make sense of that complexity and allows for healing."
Produced by Kasper Rasmussen, LET'S ESCAPE is steeped in the influence of 70s icons such as Bowie, Blondie, and Stevie Wonder. Dicte channels their timeless energy into tracks like "Mobil Home," a heartfelt ode to taking chances, and "Cry Wolf," a powerful anthem of self-determination. The instrumentation--featuring Mika Vandborg, Mads Reinhold, Kasper Tranberg, and Mads Hyhne--adds depth and texture, blending soulful guitars, horns, and Dicte's unmistakable vocals.
Through LET'S ESCAPE, Dicte delivers a resounding message: take control of your destiny, find beauty in the unexpected, and dare to live authentically. With its mix of reflection, rebellion, and liberation, this album inspires listeners to embrace life with open arms and fearless hearts.
