Kavinsky has toured alongside Daft Punk, The Rapture, Justice, and SebastiAn in 2007.
In addition to his music career he has also appeared in several films including Steak, directed by longtime friend Mr. Oizo, who appears on Ed Banger label. The SebastiAn remix of Testarossa Autodrive off the 1986 EP is featured in the video games Grand Theft Auto IV and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.
Kavinsky's production style is very visceral and reminiscent of video game music and film soundtracks of the 80s.
First Blood
Kavinsky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never let him destruct you, worth to start the fight
You're shiftin 'cause your brother shin, you step through the night
I know you, I know you
Know that there's a thunder deep inside of you
It makes you think it's all a dream, it cannot be true
Just follow me and go
Just follow me and go
It's not known what we'll do, they can break your heart
Without love, without my desire
I see a thing that is not real but I'm still alive
I know you, I know you
And when the power comes from deep within
I never ran a story that gon never begin
We'll inhale, we'll inhale
Just follow me and go
Just follow me and go
This time know when we'll do
They can break your heart again
That's enough
The song “First Blood” by Kavinsky is a powerful and uplifting song about overcoming adversity and finding strength within oneself. The lyrics begin with a message of empowerment, encouraging the listener to never let anyone “destruct” them and to “start the fight.” The second line references a sibling (“your brother shin”), perhaps alluding to the idea that one’s family can be a source of support and strength.
The chorus repeatedly emphasizes the idea that the listener possesses an inner strength, or “thunder,” and that this strength enables them to overcome obstacles that may seem unreal or impossible. The phrase “we’ll inhale” is repeated throughout the chorus, perhaps as a symbol of taking in this inner power and using it to propel oneself forward. The verses also touch on the theme of heartbreak, but ultimately emphasize the importance of perseverance and staying alive, even in difficult circumstances.
Kavinsky’s use of repetition and simple yet powerful imagery in “First Blood” creates a sense of unity and purpose among listeners. The song encourages us to tap into our own inner strength and keep pushing forward, even in the face of adversity.

"Let's go."
((intro keyboard))
Heads alight ('ae') it strikes your weather,(a') Star goes by.
You're shiftin' gears, you're punishing, you step through the night.
I know you!
(oh/ho..yeah-eahyh..)
I know you!
(yeah-eyh..eyhhyh...)
Heaven, There's a thunder deep inside of you;
it makes you think it's all a dream, it cannot be true.
Wheelin' hell!
Wheelin' hell...
Just call me, I'm alone!
(ah..yeah-heayh...)
Just call me, I'm alone!
(oh-ho..yeah...)
(oh-ho..oh...)
(yeeyh...yeah-eayh!)
His time; no one will do,
they can break your heart again.
Open my love and now my desire.
I see you think that is not real, but I'm still alive.
I know you!
I know you!
(oh..aw-yeah..heayh...)
And when the power comes from deep within,
I never run a story that will never begin.
Wheelin' hell!
Wheelin' hell...
Just call me, I'm alone!
(oh yeah-eayeah)
Just call me, I'm alone!
(oh-ho..yeah...)

His time; no one will do,
they can break your heart again.
(oh..yeah...yeah....)
(oh..oh-oh...)
"That's enough."

Y cuando el poder viene de lo más profundo
And when the power comes from deep within

If Kavinsky isn't a definition of cool, then I don't know what is it. Seriously. 40 year old man wearing a varsity jacket and sunglasses at night driving a Testarossa is that kind of man I want to be when I grow up.
