Album: Dawn FM

Best album some songs have the 90’s touch and brings you back and he knows what hes doing! Don’t listen to all these haters! because they don’t know what real music is! Keep doing what ur doing abel! Best songs out of time Less than zero Sacrifice Gasoline I heard you’re married Is there someone else? Here we go again Moth to a flame

Where is the music??? I can turn on the radio and listen to a Dj!!! Incredibly disappointing with this album.

Such a masterpiece album. From beginning to end. I was completely blown away by the production.....wow!!! best album I’ve heard in years. This is next level evolution!

Not feeling the super basic beat selections. I understand as an artist they have to evolve but Trilogy and Kissland have been his best music to present date in my opinion. Maybe he is too mainstream now to make music like that again, sucks😢.

The Weeknd is one of the most popular artists of modern music and I believe he deserves that. I was very excited to hear his follow up to After Hours (a definite must listen), and his continuation of his 80’s glam sound… and he didn’t disappoint. Produced by legendary music icon Quincy Jones, the album is reminiscent of Michael Jackson (i.e., Out of Time, Sacrifice, etc.). But we also see a new side of Abel in the penultimate track of the album, Less Than Zero. Backed by an acoustic guitar, Abel’s sound has indeed changed for the better. Also, the story has changed dramatically. Now a linear storyline, Dawn starts off with an enigmatic Jim Carrey voiced DJ, who makes very heavy handed threats(?) and Abel-performed authentic jingles like a regular radio station. I can’t wait for more videos or maybe a possible short film. The album sets itself up for more opportunities for remixes and artist collaborations. All in all, Dawn FM is an amazing display of 80’s music, FM radio, and Abel’s unique vocals and vulnerability. A definite must listen from the record breaking artist’s catalogue. Can’t wait to see what Abel and the XO team will release next. 1/12

Beautiful execution of 80s and retro futuristic music experienced in a compelling radio concept.

It’s like listening to heaven. Being taken to another world. Abel always at his best.

This just gives another feeling like you are stuck in this sonically beautiful universe. I love how artistic Abel is. This is a masterpiece.

I am obsessed with this artist!!!! I am so excited for this album and cant wait to get off work so I can blast this on my way home!!!!!
