It was only two weeks ago that Timbaland was spotted in the studio with his frequent collaborator Justin Timberlake (and fellow super-producer Pharrell), but he’s already making moves with another artist.

On Friday (April 7), Tim’ posted a photo to Instagram of himself with Sam Smith. Revealing what we all expected, the producer admitted in his caption that they were making music together and complimented the singer’s skills, writing:

“It was a pleasure working this man @samsmithworld #puretalent #goodvibes #makingmemories and #timeless #music 🔥🔥🔥🔥”

It’s been nearly three years since Smith released his debut album In The Lonely Hour and two since his last single “Lay Me Down,” but this is the first hint we’ve got towards new music.
