French electronic legend Kavinsky, the mind behind the iconic “Nightcall” that defined the soundtrack of “Drive,” has died at 50. Found at his home on July 28, authorities are investigating his death, though no foul play was initially suspected. His synth-driven hits, from “Nightcall” to “Reborn,” shaped pop culture, appearing in films, TV, and even sampled by Childish Gambino. He once called being in “Drive” the highlight of his life — like “a kid in Disneyland.” Beyond music, he briefly acted in “Steak” and performed at the 2024 Paris Olympics. His legacy lives on in every car chase and neon-lit scene he helped soundtrack.
