In 1984, two major events occurred that shaped Parisian electro producer Vincent Belorgey’s (Kavinsky’s) life: in America, Miami Vice made its television premiere, and in France, nine-year-old Belorgey (aka Kavinsky) quit taking piano lessons for good. These two historical incidents intersect in the Frenchman’s songs, which sound like a musical stab at remaking Jan Hammer’s synthetic score for the fabled Florida-based cop show.
