Kavinsky's "Nightcall" is almost as synonymous with Drive as Ryan Gosling. The French musician's new album isn't linked to a film, but centers around an automotive story of Kavinsky's creation, and replicates the soundtracks to 1980s driving video games with eerie accuracy.

Getting all the minor complaints out of the way, Kavinsky's 2013 album Outrun is a limited listen with a handful of highlights that were made available previously, but such is life for the fast and futuristic.

Kavinsky's Nightcall was the seminal moment in Drive – soundtracking the opening credits, it became the film's signature track, and went on to gain international recognition for Vincent Belorgey, the French producer who helmed the song behind Lovefoxxx's seductive lyrics. The success of both Drive and Nightcall have made Outrun one of the most anticipated albums of 2013, and for the most part it doesn't disappoint.
