Crossword Genius

Miss follows record release (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

disclose

'release' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'miss follows record' is the wordplay.
'miss' becomes 'lose' (I've seen this in other clues).
'follows' says to put letters next to each other.
'record' becomes 'disc' (eg a CD, compact disc).
'lose' after 'disc' is 'DISCLOSE'.

(Other definitions for disclose that I've seen before include "Announce" , "Sold ices (anag)" , "Make public" , "Make known - subject is closed" , "show" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
