The Weeknd has shared a pair of new Starboy tracks, including the second of his double-header collab with Daft Punk

The Canadian electro-R&B artist (real name Abel Tesfaye) dropped "I Feel It Coming" featuring Daft Punk, a chilled tune which hints at what might have transpired if Michael Jackson hit the studio with the French robots. 

It's here. The Weeknd's album Starboy is just around the corner, and the official tracklist is up on Twitter for the whole world to see.

The album opens and closes with the Daft Punk assist, with features in between from Lana Del ReyKendrick Lamar, and Future. Check the stats below, and hit the web for that preorder.

The Weeknd recently revealed his "remarkably spontaneous sessions" with the electro duo yielded two songs on the new album, the first being the title track. Listen to "I Feel It Coming" below. 

The Grammy-winning star also shared "Party Monster," a considerably darker track which, like "Coming," will appear on the album Starboy, due Nov. 25 through XO/Republic. Listen to "Party Monster" below. 

As if muddafudda "Starboy" wasn't enough, The Weeknd and Daft Punk have another dope interstellar collaboration on the way, according to a recent post from the Canadian singer's Instagram.

Daft Punk is one of the most influential musical act of the last 20 years. Dance and electronic music defines the musical movement of our era. It's leaked into rock, rap and even country. It is the pop sound of the day, and Daft Punk has most certainly played a heavy hand in that sonic domination.

At almost every turn, and with almost every release in its career, Daft Punk has been derided by critics only to be hailed in years to come. Daft Punk is the kind of band other bands write songs about (looking at you, LCD Soundsystem). When Skrillex accepted his first Grammy, he was all "I think Daft Punk should have won Grammys." The French duo invented the concept of the bedroom producer with its first album Homework in 1997, yet Daft Punk has had only two tours in 20 years, the second of which launched the modern dance music stage production concept.
