[News] Kavinsky Announces Debut Album, 'Outrun'

French electrohouse artist Kavinsky is probably known to most by way of his hit single "Nightcall", which was the lead track from the soundtrack for the neo-noir film Drive. Now, Kavinsky has nearly completed work on his debut studio album Outrun, which was produced by fellow French producer SebastiAn. The album will be released on Feburary 26th through Casablanca Records.

For a sense of what to expect come February, check out the lead single from the forthcoming LP, the grimy, electrofunk "Protovision". The song even comes paired with a video that clearly takes some cues from Drive. Watch it below.

[Listen] Kavinsky - "RoadGame"

In comparison to other French house musicians such as Justice, SebastiAn or Mr. Oizo, Kavinsky is one of the more lesser known, having stuck to a tradition of releasing EPs, remixing other artists and scoring films. More recently, he worked on the score for Nicolas Winding Refn's acclaimed film Drive, more specifically the fantastic track "Nightcall." Now, Kavinsky is back working on solo material, and with plans to release a new, currently untitled project. The first taste we have of this unnamed project is a brand new track titled "RoadGame," which, much like "Nightcall," is enough to make you feel like a bona fide badass. Give the track a listen below, via PrefixMag.
