Record Makers

Kavinsky is a French producer based in Paris. Born Vincent Belorgey in 1975, he is known for his electro house music and production style that heavily draws inspiration from the synthesized, electro-pop film soundtracks of the 1980s.

Record Makers is a music label that was founded in 2000 by Air (Nicolas Godin & Jean-Benoît Dunckel) along with their associates Marc Teissier du Cros and Stéphane Elfassi. With a focus on electronic and alternative music, the label quickly gained recognition for its unique sound and innovative approach to production.

Throughout its history, Record Makers has been home to some of the most influential artists in the industry. From *Air* themselves to other notable acts such as Sebastien Tellier, Kavinsky, and Charlotte Gainsbourg, the label has consistently delivered groundbreaking music that pushes boundaries and defies genres.

In 2004, Air decided to step away from their roles within Record Makers. However, this did not hinder the label's success or creative output. Under the continued guidance of Marc Teissier du Cros and Stéphane Elfassi, Record Makers has continued to thrive and evolve, remaining at the forefront of cutting-edge music.

Kavinsky's 'Odd look' is one of those songs which will haunt you for a long time after hearing them, one of Kavinsky's acclaimed 'Outrun' highlights for sure.The deep, raw and soulful instrumental brings a cinematic sound which has the power to litterally put you in a virtual movie just listening to music! And Sebastian's vocal part on top is a unique rendering, somewhere between Stevie Wonder and Hal. The Weeknd was invited to sing on the song by Kavinsky himself. As a big fan of his singing skills, the zombie wanted him to give his song the real soul touch that he'd had in mind for ages. His performance reminds of Michael Jackson, a fast and swinging vocal line, extremely addictive! A-Trak who has been Kavinsky's pal for years now delivers a banging remix with bass and drums and a beautiful and strange vocal hook. The kind of tune that can be played in a NYC hip hop party, as well as in a techno warehouse in Berlin with the same effect : arms up! A-Track rules it as always. Midnight Juggernauts have taken the spacey-progressive path for their approach towards 'Odd Look'. Trancey sounds built around those Scarface-like choirs surround you and bring you back to the early 9O's chill out era, It's emotional music, as on their recently released 'Uncanny Valley' album. Prince 85 is the newcomer of this selection of X-tra strong producers. His new-hip hop sound fits Kavinsky's moods perfectly, adding a brilliant re-cut work and some exquisite additional keyboards. Real drinving music, that's the deal. Surkin has the recipe for producing absolute club anthems, his re-do of Kavinsky's tune is one more proof of his skills. Sirens, brilliantly produced vocal excerpts and his signature synth sounds alltogether create a happy and hysteric mood that one could imagine create club riots!
