Kavinsky Feat. The Weeknd “Odd Look”
French producer Kavinsky has enlisted the help of superstar R&B sensation The Weeknd for his latest single, a remix of “Odd Look." The combination of Kavinsky’s musical-score-esque production style, and The Weeknd’s enchanting vocals and original lyrics, makes for a track that transcends genres, styles and labels to stand alone simply as an incredible piece of music. It seems The Weeknd (born Abel Tesfaye) plays the role of a drug dealer in the track, as he calls into question the “good girl” façade of the women buying from him. The dark story paired with Kavinsky’s flare for the 80’s-oozing dramatic create a musical experience of cinematic proportions for the listener, further proving the well of talent the French producer refuses to shut off much to our satisfaction. Out on his Odd Look EP, the remix is below for your listening pleasure!
