Calvin Harris has given fans the unique opportunity to go behind-the-scenes of the recording of his Frank Ocean collab ‘Slide’, further proving he’s the ultimate one man band.

He posted the video on Twitter, simply captioned ‘How I Made Slide’, and begins with him sitting at a piano playing those opening chords of the now chart topping track.

Next up he’s on an electric guitar, before jumping on a synth, Rhodes piano and then a bass guitar, before mixing it all together like some sort of musical wizard.

He makes it all look so ridiculously simple, yet as some of the lesser successful chart entries prove it’s really anything but.

Meanwhile we’ll just go back to listening to Slide on repeat, because how else are we expected to get through a Monday?
