I'm sure many of you have heard of Kavinsky, he has been around for a while now. But to those that have not let me introduce you to one of the best blasts from the past music you might here in a while. For an electro enthusiast or 80's aficionado such as myself it's a must listen.

[B][quote]Kavinsky[/B] (né [B]Vincent Belorgey[/B], born 1975) is a French [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro_house"]electro house[/URL] artist, and has released three [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_play"]EPs[/URL] on the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Record_Makers&action=edit&redlink=1"]Record Makers[/URL] label: [I]Teddy Boy[/I] in 2006, [I]1986[/I] a year later and "Nightcall" in 2010. He has been remixed by [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SebastiAn"]SebastiAn[/URL] and others. He toured alongside [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daft_Punk"]Daft Punk[/URL], [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rapture_%28band%29"]The Rapture[/URL], [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_%28French_band%29"]Justice[/URL], and [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SebastiAn"]SebastiAn[/URL] in 2007. In addition to his music career he has also appeared in several films including [I]Steak[/I], directed by longtime friend [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Oizo"]Mr. Oizo[/URL]. The SebastiAn remix of "Testarossa Autodrive" off the 1986 EP is featured in the video game [I][URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto_IV"]Grand Theft Auto IV[/URL][/I]. Kavinsky's fellow producer [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surkin"]Surkin[/URL] once jokingly claimed in an interview that Kavinsky was his father. There has been a long running joke since.
Kavinsky's production style is very visceral and reminiscent of film soundtracks of the 1980s[/quote]
