John Summit released his second album, CTRL ESCAPE, on April 15 through Experts Only and Darkroom Records. The album’s premise starts with a specific piece of biography: Summit worked as a CPA before becoming a full-time producer.
That former career gives the title “escape” a real reference point. The album presents Summit as a multi-dimensional producer rather than one confined to a single lane in dance music, making its pitch about more than leaving an office job behind.
The story here is expansion, not a clean break from house. CTRL ESCAPE is presented as a second full-length where Summit can test a broader definition of his work, with the former CPA chapter still part of the context.
