Disclosure -

Brothers Guy and Howard Laurence, dba Disclosure, team up with singer-songwriter Sam Smith and songwriter Jimmy Napes for the second single from their forthcoming sophomore album “Caracal” (due Sept. 25 via Capitol). And they make the glossy “Omen” sound like it was a no-big-deal thing, y’know, some guys hanging around a piano. “It’s very traditional way of writing songs,” Guy Laurence says in the announcement, with Howard adding, “We had three whole days to hang out with Sam and write, which are two of my favorite things to do.” Meanwhile, the even glossier video is directed by Ryan Hope and is Part 2 of a series that began with the Gregory Porter collaboration “Holding On.” Starring Mariela and filmed in Mexico City, it’s dramatic. Both videos are below.
