Discover

Discover artwork.

Discover is a covers album by LorD and Master and the third non-original studio album by the artist. It was produced using Apple's Logic Pro software. It is a collection of songs originally by various artists and lends itself to the quote by LorD and Master that "I only cover songs I wish I'd written." The album was released on 13 August 2011.

Concept

The collection of songs covered was arbitrarily chosen by Dan as some of his favourite records and those he was familiar enough with to produce. The album is predominantly filled with high-energy dance songs, hence the title is a portmanteau of the words disco and cover.
