UK electronic music band Disclosure's debut album 'Settle' has been awarded the playlist's album of the year.
The album, composed by brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence, has also been nominated for a Barclaycard Mercury Prize and a Grammy, the Daily Star reported.
While Howard claimed that their success was a combination of right timing, a bit of luck and hard work, Guy said that a year ago, getting an album like 'Settle' into the Top 40, let alone the Top 5, would have been impossible.
Guy said that they have been producing and releasing music as Disclosure for nearly 4 years now and it's not like an over night success like some people believe.
The duo embarked on their first US tour this year, made a linkup up with disco legend Nile Rodgers and also headlined the dance tent at Reading Festival.
