telescopes and we could see each other.” READ MORE WHAT ARE THE REVIEWS SAYING? _Dawn FM _has been released to largely positive reviews from critics and fans alike, with the Los Angeles

Times’ pop music critic Mikael Wood describing it as “2022’s first great album”. Roisin O’Connor, from the Independent, awarded the album four out of five stars, and called it “darkly

shimmering”. O’Connor says: “Dawn FM comes in the wake of 2020’s _After Hours_, The Weeknd’s moody, superbly conceived work that melded his love of cinema with ominous, Giorgio Moroder-style

electronic beats. “Now he’s delving into the darkly shimmering, Eighties synthpop world of Depeche Mode and Duran Duran, helped by Scandipop producer gods Max Martin, Oscar Holter and

Swedish House Mafia.” Will Dukes, from NME, also gave _Dawn FM _four out of five stars, calling it “less brooding and decadent” than the usual offerings from the Weeknd, but still “a

refreshingly light and accessible listen”. Joining the four star club is David Smyth from the Evening Standard, who said that The Weeknd “doubles down on pop in his latest album with

resounding success”. Smyth adds: “On_ Dawn FM_, [The Weeknd’s] reached his pop prime.” HOW CAN I LISTEN TO DAWN FM? The Weeknd dropped _Dawn FM _on Friday 7 January, following the release of
