White Sea (Morgan Kibby of M83) affirms The Weeknd's (whose Canadian government name is Abel Tesfaye) sexual prowess on her remix of his latest single "Often". Understated and suggestive, her layered vocals effortlessly bleed into Tesfaye's hazy recollection of affairs. From their harmonies alone (check 3:00), it's clear he should add collaborating with females (in the studio, not just the bedroom) to his list of things he does often. His song “Love Me Harder” with Ariana Grande showed this earlier, but this track takes it to another level. It's the dark, millennial equivalent of what an Annie Lennox and Michael Jackson collaboration might have sounded like.
