Biography
Real name Vincent Belorgey, DJ Kavinsky was born on July 31, 1975 in Seine-Saint-Denis, France. After self-taught piano lessons as a child, he became interested in electronic music while doing his military service. In the 2000s, he released a number of EPs, including Teddy Boy in 2006, 1986 in 2007 and Blazer in 2008. After opening for Daft Punk in the late 2000s, a duo to whom he is often compared, he gained recognition when his track "Nightcall " (also released via the EP of the same name in 2010) appeared on the soundtrack of the film Drive in 2011, giving him unexpected exposure. After two new EPs in 2013, ProtoVision and Old Look, he finally released his debut album the same year. OutRun immediately brought him success in the French charts, where he climbed to number two. In the years that followed, the DJ became less frequent, devoting himself to live performances, before returning with the album Reborn (No. 13) in 2022. It is preceded by the singles "Renegade " and "Zenith" and features collaborations with Romuald, Cautious Clay, Sébastien Tellier, Kareen Lomax, Prudence and Morgan Phalen. On August 11, 2024, invited to the closing ceremony of the Paris Summer Olympics, he performed his hit song at the Stade de France with Belgian singer Adèle and the group Phoenix. The version released as a single a month later reached its highest-ever number 3 in France.
