Step into the neon-lit purgatory of Dawn FM, The Weeknd's ambitious fifth studio album, now pressed across two heavyweight vinyl records. Released in January 2022, the album is a conceptual tour de force that transports listeners to a fictional radio station broadcasting to souls in limbo — a seamless fusion of '80s synth-pop, R&B, and cinematic soundscapes helmed by producers including Max Martin, Oscar Holden, and Daniel Lopatin (Oneohtrix Point Never). Featuring guest appearances from Quincy Jones, Tyler the Creator, Lil Wayne, and Jim Carrey as the sardonic radio host, Dawn FM is as much an immersive audio experience as it is a collection of songs.
The 2LP format is the definitive way to experience this record. Spread across four sides of vinyl, the album's meticulously sequenced tracklist — from the euphoric rush of "Gasoline" to the tender vulnerability of "Best Friends" and the arena-ready anthem "Take My Breath" — unfolds with the warmth and depth that only analog playback can deliver. The physical format also honors the album's radio-drama concept, allowing listeners to flip between sides as if tuning through late-night frequencies, making each listen feel like a complete, uninterrupted journey.
Available in multiple pressings — including standard black vinyl and the striking translucent silver collector's edition — the Dawn FM 2LP is an essential addition to any serious vinyl collection. The gatefold sleeve showcases the album's haunting, aged-photograph artwork of Abel Tesfaye, making it as visually compelling as it is sonically. Whether you're a longtime fan of The Weeknd or a vinyl enthusiast seeking a modern classic, Dawn FM on 2LP delivers an experience that streaming simply cannot replicate.
