Swedish House Mafia and The Weeknd have reunited for "Closing Night," a new track steeped in the seductive melancholy that has defined their collaborations thus far. 

Available exclusively on the "Pharrell Williams" edition of Hurry Up Tomorrow, the song marks another chapter in a partnership that has blurred the lines between electronic music and pop grandeur.

For Swedish House Mafia, the track reinforces their unique ability to meld their stadium-filling, euphoric sound with something more intimate, an ability that has kept them at the forefront of electronic music for over a decade. The trio stuns with sweeping synths, aching chord progressions and an undercurrent of tension that builds like a slow-burning fire beneath The Weeknd's vocals.

The collaboration is another addition to a saga that began in 2021 with "Moth to a Flame," their hypnotic anthem that became a billion-stream behemoth. They followed it up in 2022 by co-producing "Sacrifice" and "How Do I Make You Love Me?" on Dawn FM, projects that further wove The Weeknd into the fabric of the electronic dance music world.

Fans eager to experience "Closing Night" will need to seek out the limited Pharrell Williams edition of Hurry Up Tomorrow, available through a dedicated portal on The Weeknd's website
