Kavinsky is a character made by Belorgey that physically resembles Belorgey, but has red eyes and blue skin. The character's story is that after crashing his Testarossa in 1986, he reappeared as a zombie to make his own electronic music in 2006. Kavinsky's songs help tell his story; Belorgey once said, "'Night Call' is just about the zombie guy [who] goes to his girlfriend's house and says okay I'm not the same, we need to talk", referring to Kavinsky going back after the crash to find his girlfriend, who has already moved on with her life.
