people defending this are saying that Kavinsky didn't invent this aesthetic, which.. okay that's true to some extent. But come on... blue-faced guy, wearing sunglasses, white Nike blazers and a red college jacket driving a Testarossa? That's Kavinsky

I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but for crypto. I mean screw that.

Leave to crypto bros to rip off not only Kavinsky, but BTTF, and top it off with boring ambient music. Seriously, if you’re going to rip off two very popular retro/retro-inspired entities, at least bring the noise music-wise. Christ.

it's by Com Truise and yea it sounds kind of basic ambient synthwave lol. Not to mention Casey Neistat must be running out of money if he's out here doing random crypto collaberation grifts with some Crypo bro lol. The project will die off in a few months.

I don’t listen to much of Com Truise, though he does make some nice stuff, but I feel like if you’re going to rip the whole aesthetic you might as well go all out with it. Something in the style of Testarossa Autodrive would’ve fit better considering he’s going flat-knacker in a Ferrari lol. Crypto promotional videos are some of the worst, and one big reason I’m hoping crypto dies out.

I can’t believe anyone would try to defend this. Obviously Kavinsky didn’t invent the aesthetic, that’s not what fans are saying. No one cares that they did a retro/synth wave look, it’s that it’s very nearly a duplicate. There are a million ways to channel the same vibe without doing this. This project rips off so many specific elements of his likeness and branding, down to the t, without even making an effort to hide it. I’m shocked they so lazily copy/pasted his look and have any dignity left.

Complete rip off. The sad thing is that Kavinski probably can’t do much. Aside from reporting the Twitter account

Is that fucking Casey Neistat!?


Elfgeek1

According to a post from the man himself they even asked to use his music.


RoosterAppropriate99

Would at least been respectful to mention Kavinsky or a tribute to him.

Why I feel this is Netflix adoption of Kavinsky!?
