Architecture in Helsinki is an indie electronic band from Melbourne, Australia. This track is taken from their album Moment Bends which was released by Cooperative Music in 2011. This is a fun, danceable track that makes me think of late night revelry under the stars. Frontman Cameron Bird's lyrics offer little clue as to who or what the 'escapee' is escaping, though it may be from a troubled relationship. His words are chosen more for the sounds the rhymes elicit than for any coherent images they create. The strident synths and bouncy rhythm make it almost impossible not to move your body in time with the beats, so expect to find yourself putting this one on repeat. The album Moment Bends is patchy with a few great individual songs, but Escapee is the record's undisputed highlight.
