Nightcall EP

by Kavinsky

/
  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Nicolas Winding Refn's cult film, "Drive" 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 it's effortless debonair. Since the film's release, the single has been on repeat across an expanse of playlists, always fueling the after-after party with the slow burn of glossed synth echoes. Now Kavinksy emerges from this late-night haze with the helping of friends, bearing a collection of covers, remixes, and second takes for yet another drive through the midnight hours...

    The song was produced by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo of Daft Punk and mixed by SebastiAn and finds the spooky, distorted, zombie vocals of Kavinsky perfectly counterbalanced by the sultry purr of CSS' front kitten Lovefoxxx.

    On the other side, Kavinsky has produced the fantastic "Pacific Coast Highway". This track really taps into the Kavinsky story as a voiceover narrates a high-speed ghost-car chase on the freeway. Kavinsky's trademark arpeggiated 80's sound forms the stylish backdrop to a thrilling pursuit the cops haven't a chance in hell of winning.

The remix package for this release comes courtesy of secretive and emblematic figures. Nightcall gets a rework by the mysterious Dustin Nguyen. The sensuous vibe of the original gets sped-up for dancefloors around the world by one of the finest French talents to emerge in recent years. ‘Pacific Coast Highway’ gets a treatment by the enigmatic Jackson, the true hero of the French electro sound of the last decade. The avante-garde producer, signed to Warp, transforms the original chase into a sprawling, drawn-out nine-minute epic that is pure high-octane.

The three digital bonus remixes are signed Breakbot, the funky Ed Banger crew member, and the two winners of a successful remix contest (544 final entries!), SAWAGii, with a metal cover of the song, and Robotaki, who offers a fantastic and fresh remix.
