KAVINSKY MOTHERFUCKERS


Kavinsky. The man behind of some of my favorite French speed electro that ran parrellel to the bloghouse era of 2k8 is back a new EP entitled Nightcall. An EP which was mixed by SebastiAn, who turned Kavinsky's "Testarossa Autodrive" into the most testosterone fueled electro explosion of the whole era. An EP which was produced by motherfucking Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo of Daft Punk. With vocals from Lovefoxxx from CSS!

"Nightcall" itself is not exactly a return to that unabashed energy, but its a super slick track thats definately worth a listen.

However, the true highlight, at least, for myself, is "Pacific Coast Highway," which is a return to that energy, and is perhaps the closest thing to "Testarossa Autodrive" that there can be, as a reporter tracks an high speed chase. I have no idea why Kavisnky knows how to perfectly soundtrack an 80's influenced high speed pursuit, but he does, and it works.

You should probably check out "Testarossa Autodrive" if you missed it, because its one of the coolest things ever.
