Disclosure & Sam Smith’s Timeless Hit “Latch” Just Turned 7

A lot has happened in the last seven years, but one thing remains certain: Disclosure & Sam Smith’s “Latch” is just as good as it ever was. The smash hit turns seven years old today.


To give you an idea just how old “Latch” is, Your EDM itself only began in June 2012, just four months before this track came out. Since then, both Disclosure and Sam Smith have gone on to become global names; though, Smith obviously has a bit a leg up on the UK duo.

Disclosure released their debut album Settle, including the singles “Latch” and “When A Fire Starts To Burn,” on May 31, 2013. Listen to their breakout hit, nearing 500,000,000 plays on Spotify, below.
