Disclosure Kwabs
When Disclosure shared the official tracklist for their upcoming 2nd LP Caracal, our eyes were drawn to one track in particular. No, not "Omen," the sizzling dance anthem featuring their "Latch" co-star Sam Smith; it was "Willing & Able," that had us wild with anticipation, thanks to the name that came attached: Kwabs. A London-based singer with an absolutely astonishing vocal range, Kwabs has built his young career on a string of sweeping dance and R&B tracks--songs that clearly took cues from Disclosure's 2013 record Settle. It was impossible not to wonder what it would sound like when the two acts finally met and rolled tape.
Opening with a smooth and subtle air, Kwabs and Disclosure's new collaboration "Willing & Able" is everything we could have hoped for: emotive, forceful and gorgeous. Warbling synth chords build a platform from which Kwabs can soar, and as things crescendo into the hook, everything in the world feels just right. This is one to lose yourself to, there's no mistaking it. Watch the new animated video for "Willing & Able" below, and check out Disclosure's North American tour schedule after the jump. Caracal drops on September 25th, and you can pre-order it on iTunes today.
