Encapsulating!
26 February 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This short 30 minute film really encapsulates what Dawn FM is about. The Weeknd (Abel) really excels in drawing in his audience into this mysterious, dark and twisted world. His live vocals once again were beautiful, adding his signature flare for live performances to this film. The choreography as well was stunning, as well as the dark, cobalt-esk night club which this takes place in. He was able to make the sound of Dawn FM become a visually pleasing spectacle. My only point would be that he sadly didn't perform every song from the album, although this is just a short nitpick. It doesnt affect the overall viewing experience as he includes the best of the best from the album. Personal favourite was the change of pace for Out of Time, although different from the original, it felt almost more calming and enjoyable as well. The theme of purgatory has been perfectly visualised here, truly an amazing watch for any fan of The Weeknd and his music. Overall this is an amazing venture for Abel, cant wait to watch the rest of this story unfold!
