    This is, without any doubt, one of the (if not the) best electronic album of the most recent years. Kavinsky can easily be compared to the level of Daft Punk. Really looking forward to his future projects.

    This makes NO SENSE but this album reminds me of the FEELING I get when listening to Rage Against The Machine. Does that make sense? No. But I liked that feeling. And so I'm giving this album a 10/10 review. Because I love RATM.

    With Outrun on the books, Kavinsky has firmly defined himself as a musician capable of forming, and then effectively nailing, an overarching concept of artistic vision.

    Too much of Kavinsky's debut LP is overly repetitive, and little of it leaves any lasting impact. [Mar-Apr 2013, p.100]

    Outrun is exactly what it aspires to be: a fun retro-pop-dance album for those who like to drive fast through cities at night, perhaps behind a pair of sunglasses.
