Processed with VSCOcam with acg preset If you're looking for a crystal clear reboot of The Weeknd, look no further. JR Nelson brings us a remix that explores a slightly lighter side of The Weeknd's originally heavy hit. Where Abel explores the negative space JR Nelson explores clever drum programming and scintillant strings. Packed with bouncy 808s, hazy synths, and a vocal reboot that introduces even more levity, this NY producer takes us for a sonic spin we won't soon forget.

"This was my first time working with someone's vocals as opposed to building a song around a stripped down track so I felt like I really got to be more creative with it. Doing a cover is kind of my step towards releasing my own originals and I'm especially excited to get to work with Amory again." - JR Nelson
