‘Twas exactly one month ago today that Calvin Harris and The Weeknd dropped their deeply smooth and oh so vibey breakup ballad, “Over Now.”
Now, Harris is offering a fairly comprehensive view into the making of the track in a new video that deconstructs the song into its various parts: beats, keyboard, guitar, bass and a fair amount of sage smoke wafted over various pieces of equipment.

Add all of these parts together, throw The Weeknd’s vocals over them and give Harris some time to consider the sound as he meanders around the studio while enjoying what looks to be a bowl of cereal, and you’ve got yourself a late summer into early fall slow jam. Watch the video below.
