oneohtrix point never

ooo

i was already kind of over it after garden of delete, that cover makes me even more over it tbh

i hope Garden of Delete was a one off, really wasn't into the sound palette on that one

Sweet, the Good Time soundtrack didn't get enough love. One of my favorites of last year

rong and rong xp xxp

yeah that was great, i wonder if this one will be anything like it xp

rong?

ok rite and rite idk i loved it

Yeah, cover is bad. But, he is good. So, I guess we'll just have to see. The line between critiquing techno-fetishism and just straight up techno-fetishism does feel increasingly nonexistent in 'art these days'

Also garden of delete rules but it is fatiguing, i blame the mastering job tho

cover is sick wtf

earliest releases were evocative by managing to be sort of blank and ambiguous ("zones without people")

but i feel like he's getting increasingly ham-fisted in his attempts at creating *meaning*

cover is very trenchant

I don't think he can ever top R Plus Seven in this regard

i kinda think that cover art is passed it's sell-by date, but looking forward to this nonetheless. the art/promo for his MYRIAD show (or w/ever it was called) was pretty dope.

sticky drama video still one of the best this decade, his aesthetics are excellent

I hope this expands on GoD/is an even bigger clusterfuck since that's the first time his music interested me tbh

Surprised by how many people are fed up with him itt tbh

p much with ultros but I did also like R Plus Seven

also the music in the trailer has me hyped

hypesichord

Didn't love GoD, didn't hate it either, but I'm totally up for something new. He doesn't really repeat himself much.

don't love the album cover but the rest of the visuals for the album are dope. esp the typography

that cover rules!

thread seems to indicate we should start filing OPN in the prog / art-rock section instead of electronic

can't he be both

The trailer sounds like R+7 filtered through baroque progressions or something? seems promising. I never really got into GoD, it was a disappointment after how much I loved R+7. Haven't listened to the Good Time soundtrack yet which I probably should get around to

*gasps*

I mean OK, who cares. Are those things still scary in 2018?

xxp

no judgment, just sayinbg

kind of bummed that OPN has resorted to using hot women to sell records

my album artwork prominently features a computer

Still think this is one of the most genuinely disturbing songs & videos of the decade so far

I think this was intentional. His life show kind of hammers sound at you, too

Cover rules, can’t wait for the album

live show! my typing has gone downhill

i will anticipate this

cover be like "technology is our new religion" DO U SEEEEEE

those are the cool synthwave sounds of oneohtrix shining out of the labtob and those ladies are about to get funky

It does seem weirdly on the nose/obvious for someone who’s done an admirable job of being surprising and ahead of the curve for most of his career.

kind of reminds me of https://img.discogs.com/HYOg4gqQw-xHitglZ07d78Yq2Ww=/fit-in/600x600/filters:strip_icc():format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/R-2717577-1378584293-8565.jpeg.jpg

i thought the cover was just like, anachronistically adding a laptop to 70s album art. i’m imagining some mbdtfian prog influence. i guess it looks a bit culty.

beats putting ivanka on the cover next to the word complicit i guess

I lost track of OPN after the follow up to the amazing Returnal was kind of bleh. I guess that record was a long time ago now.

Still waiting for a sequel to Channel Pressure, the best thing he ever made.

surely there are a dozen vaporwave albums out there these days that could scratch that itch for you

Shocked at the backlash itt tbh

death to false vaporwave

um no the follow up was way better

agreed

also xxp, it's really only The Late Great and Sparkle itt who seem to be "over" him as far as I can tell. i'm not crazy about the album art but OPN's still great in my book.
