UK fraternal duo Disclosure essentially launched Sam Smith’s career on the strength of their ubiquitous breakout single “Latch.” And now, it looks like they’re getting the gang back together. The two artists announced the news of a new collaboration via a string of tweets featuring Disclosure’s iconic mask logo on top of Smith’s face:

Disclosure’s highly anticipated sophomore album Caracal is out 9/25 via PMR/Island Records, but it’s not clear if this new Sam Smith thing will be on it or if it’s just a one-off or what. Either way, this is good news! Although Smith’s made himself a nice career out of his sentimental balladeering thing, for my money, he’s never sounded better than when he’s backed by the brothers Lawrence.
