REC 107EP
|
Kavinsky's "Odd Look" is one of those songs which will haunt you for a long time after hearing it, one of his acclaimed Outrun highlights, for sure, featuring vocals by The Weeknd. The deep, raw and soulful instrumental brings a cinematic sound which has the power to literally put you in a virtual movie just listening to the music. And Sebastian's vocal part on top is a unique rendering, somewhere between Stevie Wonder and HAL. Remixes by A-Trak, Surkin, Prince 85, and Midnight Juggernauts.

REC 024EP
|
2013 repress, originally released in 2005. Kavinsky's "Testarossa Autodrive" could be easily described as "heroic house" -- a fierce, edgy, powerful track that is getting the remix treatment from Mr. Oizo. Once again, expect the unexpected, but you can dance to it. To complete the package, find a remix from Detroit-based Arpanet (aka Dopplereffect). "Arpanet Nightdrive" is a must for true electro lovers.

2017 repress. Nicolas Winding Refn's film, Drive (2011) operates on a level of cool that's hard to articulate with just words; it takes a snippet from the movie -- take the opening credits backed by Kavinsky's "Nightcall" -- to really grasp its effortless debonair. Since the film's release, this single's Youtube video has climbed to over 30 million views, and has been on repeat across an expanse of playlists, always fueling the after-after party with the slow burn of glossed synth echoes. Kavinsky is not all about "Nightcall." He died in a car crash in 1986, while driving his beloved Testarossa. He re-appeared as a zombie in 2005, with his 12", Teddy Boy. Since then, he has shown up all around the globe, playing his music to fellow humans. Crowds gathered to witness the miracle: despite being dead, Kavinsky was still alive. In 2007, he released his second 12", "1986." This is when his French robot-mates in Daft Punk invited him to join their "Alive Tour," and A-Trak put together an American tour. After discovering the world with his red eyes, Kavinsky retreated to his base camp to release "Nightcall' in 2011. Kavinsky now presents his long-awaited debut album OutRun produced by SebastiAn, including appearances by Havoc (Mobb Deep), Tyson & SebastiAn. 1x LP 12" -- gatefold glossy coated + 12" printed inner sleeve.

Kavinsky's track "ProtoVision" is the new single taken from his debut album OutRun, here remixed. The mix by Red Sky is a vinyl exclusive that takes "ProtoVision" to another dimension. Boys Noize put his hands on "Protovision" and turned it in into a nervous and elegant club hit. Blood Orange gives a fresh and girly feel to the original track, transforming it into a groovy pop ballad. The Sébastien Tellier version is also a vinyl exclusive and highlights hypnotic strings and heroic guitars.

2018 repress. Taken from the Drive original motion picture soundtrack.
