Given they're about the only people to achieve the amazing feat of making Sam Smith sound listenable, I'm optimistic about this!

excited for new Disclosure! Sam's collabs are much better than his solo stuff so also looking forward to his contribution.

can't wait to hear this dancing.gif

hopefully this can save the era after the massive floppage of 'Holding On' sob.gif

Finally, maybe there will be a second Disclosure single that I like.

I'm sure Naughty Boy has achieved this too laugh.gif I like him, but I didn't like his retreat into ballardy for his last album. His upbeat material is infinitely better.

Excited to hear this, it's got some high expectations to live up to. Latch is going down as a 2010's classic. This seems like a label decision to get Disclosure a big chart hit before album release.

very excited to hear this!

am i the only one with absolutely no interest?

i'm tired of sam's voice still and they've done a single together before

all feels a bit pompous

Posted by: Liаm 27th July 2015, 03:23 AM

I expect I'll hear this and just think I'd like it more with anyone else singing. Latch is an excellent song but I just can't listen to it anymore, his voice puts me off that much sad.gif

I like. Their best from this era for sure.

Posted by: mr_aly 27th July 2015, 03:52 PM

It's not very good. sad.gif

Disclosure have disappointed me this era except for 'Holding On', and even that doesn't compare to some of the best from Settle.

Posted by: jark 27th July 2015, 05:17 PM

Holding On is my #2 Disclosure track now, and Omen is pretty great too. Insane beat. Just a shame it's become fashionable to hate on them all of a sudden.~

I agree that it seems to be retreading old ground, but with Sam Smith on board they are bound to get a HIT. Could be a grower anyway.

“Holding On” remains great though.

I really liked their music and now I do struggle with it. It all seems so 'not quite there'.

Posted by: Chez Wombat 27th July 2015, 05:45 PM

^Yeah, I'll echo that really.

Omen's OK, but it just falls a bit flat next to Latch (which I know is a tad unfair, but that's clearly what they were going for). I guess with Latch, Sam Smith was then pretty unknown so it was a nice surprise, now I'm just sick of hearing his voice so it puts me off. Overexposure curse.

Posted by: Dobbo 27th July 2015, 05:50 PM

How refreshing to hear him on a dance track again smile.gif

Sounding pretty good atm. Very slick & much prefer it to Latch which I never got the love for.

Unsure on how it'll do chart wise. Obviously better than their last 2 but it's not quite stand out enough for me, guess we'll see how much Sam Smith's name tag will benefit...

it's like a mediocre version of their own past glories rly

Posted by: ScottyEm 27th July 2015, 10:26 PM

I love it but, for me, they're at that stage where it's practically impossible for them to put a foot wrong for me...

I'm a little bugged that it sounds far too close to the track they did for Mary J and the album seems, as so far, much in the main of R&B than club/house flare.

We'll see...

Posted by: #DivinersHYPE. 27th July 2015, 11:31 PM

Finally listened to this. Not bad! Already prefer it to Latch which was ok. About time we had more Dance Smith!

I kinda agree though on second listen, it instantly grows on me.

And the video would've been better had the director arranged a couple of guys to dance with Sam Smith. kink.gif kink.gif
