Disclosure continue their strong album campaign for August release Energy. Today, they share the track and video for a third single 'Douha (Mali Mali)'. The new cut features Grammy-nominated Fatoumata Diawara and was teased back in April during a virtual Boileroom set.

While lead single 'Energy' seemed to be a follow-up to 'When a Fire Starts to Burn' and recent collaboration with Aminé and slowthai tracked like a hip hop/House mash-up, 'Douha (Mali Mali)' focuses on a gentle sense of joy and the communal euphoria that comes from raving as a community.

The sunlit dance track soars on the high of Diawara's vocal and lyrics: the artist is Malian by birth.

An equally joyful video shot in quarantine by drone, captures the vibe perfectly. "Right now, all over the world, we're going through an incredibly strange time. I wanted to make something that was visually beautiful, but also felt symbolic of what we’re all going through," director Mahaneela said.
