Nicolas Jaar, Gesaffelstein and Daft Punk help craft The Weeknd's new album

Grammy Award winning artist The Weeknd has dropped his fourth studio album ‘My Dear Melancholy’ via his XO imprint.

The six-track project features unique collaboration efforts, along with some noteworthy production credits from a wide-spectrum of musical stalwarts. Nicolas Jaar nails down the composition for the album’s opening track ‘Call Out My Name’ while Daft Punk’s Guy-Manuel de Homen-Christo, Skrillex and Mike WiLL Made-It also receive production credits throughout the album.

The only formal collaborative feature on the album goes to French techno artist Gesaffelstein, who appears on two of the album’s tracks: ‘I Was Never There’ and ‘Hurt You’.
