saw him live two nights ago and there was way more distortion and the whole thing was super loud. when he talked to the audience he would still use the filter that rendered what he said indecipherable and it was a pretty funny gag.

My ears were definitely ringing afterwards. There's a surprising amount of bass engineered into his later work as well.

MikoMcha, Sunday, 22 November 2015 23:14 (eight years ago) link

he's playing at a pretty small club here in march - 300 capacity - i don't know if he's announced a full spring tour yet, but i'm curious if the idea is to play at mostly "rock"/"punk" type venues as part of the whole G.O.D. project

three months pass...

seeing him tonight, can't wait - hope it's not just songs from G.O.D.

flappy bird, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 18:12 (eight years ago) link

i'll be there too. i can see GoD stuff being really great live. psyched for whichever way he takes it tbh.

he's playing Thursday in NYC. what are his live shows like? does he have backup dancers or anything like that?

larry appleton, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 20:16 (eight years ago) link

Totes. The choreography between Lopatin and his backup dancers is really some next level shit.

Treeship, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 20:48 (eight years ago) link

i will be there thursday too btw.

at his shows, there is a light component, but mostly it's just him up there pressing buttons and turning knobs and singing.

yeah. i just thought the imagery was funny, art rock show with william hung-style backup dancers.

larry appleton, Tuesday, 15 March 2016 20:54 (eight years ago) link

make sure to catch Jason Lescalleet.. i believe he's opening for a few of the current shows

braunld (Lowell N. Behold'n), Tuesday, 15 March 2016 22:58 (eight years ago) link

i wish i saw him on the Replica and R Plus Seven tours. G.O.D. and Returnal are still a bit too harsh for me. Last night he played most of G.O.D. and the song "Returnal" (which i love). He also played a completely rearranged version of "Zebra" with none of its original elements except for a minute of the outro. the set was all a bit samey after a while. The unrelenting bass made me and all my friends really tired, bizarre feeling walking out of the show, felt like i took an ambien. During Jason Lescalleet's set, he played this tone that made me feel like time had slowed down - it was hard to breathe, my girlfriend said she almost fainted. we though it was neat. i enjoyed Lopatin's crowd banter processed beyond recognition. also, there were signs pasted all over the venue that read "PHOTOGRAPHERS: You are welcome to photograph ONEOHTRIX POINT NEVER for the *FIRST* song of their set. That's it. Thanks!" Doors opened an hour and a half late, too. Can't help but think it was all part of the rock band cliche concept of G.O.D., which was cool. I enjoyed all the conceptual accoutrement more than the music. There was someone in front of me that inexplicably knew every word to "Freaky Eyes" and was belting it out, beer in the air.

I went to the SF show on the R+7 tour. Audience seemed like they were very much there for the beats, not so much the kosmische stuff. Everybody staring at him cheering for the drops.

0 / 0 (lukas), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 17:52 (eight years ago) link

lol i saw him saturday and i mentioned in another thread that i fell asleep in the front row but this is really more my issue than with the music. it was cute how he kept circling his hand to illustrate that he was playing loops. yes i know you are playing loops.

This is way looser than the last set I saw from him.

Can anyone please suggest anything that has the same kind of sound as his pre 'R plus Seven' work?

Congratulations, Daniel Lopatin!

Oneohtrix Point Never (Daniel Lopatin) has won the Soundtrack Award at Cannes Film Festival 2017. He was honored for his original score for Good Time, a new crime thriller directed by Josh and Benny Safdie. The film stars Robert Pattinson and Jennifer Jason Leigh. Lopatin beat out Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood, Jed Kurzel, and Ibrahim Maalouf for the award. He joins former winners Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Cliff Martinez, Howard Shore, Jim Jarmusch’s band SQÜRL, Lim Giong, and more. Lopatin’s score features a collaborative song with Iggy Pop called “The Pure and the Damned,” which can be heard in the film’s trailer below. Good Time hits theaters August 11.

Handsome Bookor, Friday, 2 June 2017 13:59 (six years ago) link

can someone please come up with a good analogy for him working with iggy, this is bugging me. it's like ... uh ... al capp, working with chris onstad ... or ...ida b wells, working with bell hooks (ok that's sorta an obscene comparison sorry)

Ha, well. That failed. His new song with Iggy Pop, as part of the aforementioned score, was released.

I've got a wicked cold and I'm listening to Eccojams, I think I'm going to puke

Never encountered Lopatin before, but this film is good and the score is... prominent. V reminiscent of '80s thriller scoring.

The Iggy song I just found kinda ridiculous (end credits).

This soundtrack (Good Time) is out today and it's pretty fucking great on first blush

as is the film

ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Friday, 11 August 2017 16:10 (six years ago) link

Wasn't on my radar outside of the OPN connection. Definitely gonna check it out.

circa1916, Friday, 11 August 2017 16:18 (six years ago) link

Can't wait to see the movie - I feel like I should hold off on listening to the OST until I see it. Glad to hear all the positive feedback.

flappy bird, Friday, 11 August 2017 18:56 (six years ago) link

OST has really been growing on me. Worth listening on headphones as the mix is incredibly 3-dimensional. Would like to see the film, but the album totally stands on its own.

Saw the movie yesterday, fantastic.
He just did a movie themed mix for Fact:

According to an accompanying fb post of his, the Lewis remix was the blueprint for "The Pure & The Damned".

That's interesting, thanks for the heads up, mix looks great.

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

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

ok rite and rite idk i loved it

imago, Wednesday, 4 April 2018 17:14 (six years ago) link

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'
