For those of you who somehow don't remember him. I just gotta link to the opening for a certain movie.
Drive was a huge deal back when it came out, mainly because of it's retro-inspired soundtrack. With the opening theme by Kavinsky becoming one of it's most famous elements.
One of the people that watched it back then was a certain Jonatan Söderström. Who would go on to create the even bigger video game known as Hotline Miami. Which similarly licensed out 80's-esque synth music from other early acts of the time such as M.O.O.N. and Scattle.
Leading to the proper creation of Synthwave as a genre.
Now that the backstory is out of the way, here's what happened to Kavinsky.
Despite the aforementioned popularity of Drive/Hotline Miami. He only dropped one proper album + EP after the release of them, before promptly disappearing into the shadows.
Until now, that is.
Word is that this is the first single from his next proper album, entitled "Reborn". Though it's unknown when the rest of the tracks will get released.
