Kavinsky, French DJ Known for Hit Song 'Nightcall,' Found Dead at 50 in His Paris Home. Kavinsky, the French DJ who was best known for his 2010 hit single Nightcall, died on Tuesday, July 28, three days before his birthday. Kavinsky (real name Vincent Belorgey) was found dead in his Paris home, the prosecutor's office in the French capital told Reuters on Wednesday, July 29. An inquiry into the cause of death has been opened to determine the circumstances of the death, as first responders found no suspicious elements at the scene, the office said in a statement to the news agency. France's Minister of Culture, Catherine Pégard, also confirmed the news, writing via X on Wednesday, With the sudden death of Kavinsky, France loses one of its most singular voices. … Both danceable and nostalgic, his music will continue to resonate across generations and borders. The Weeknd, who worked with Kavinsky on the 2013 song Odd Look, was among the first of many A-list collaborators to publicly pay tribute to the electropop producer after his untimely death.
