"Escalera" closes the release with a chugging groove underpinned by a deep bassline and pitched tom drums. Dramatic bass chords and Arabic synths give the track an expansive sound that builds to the suspense of a sun-drenched breakdown, before the drums are reintroduced to release an exhilarating burst of energy.
