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.― Treeship, Sunday, November 22, 2015 6:09 PM (3 months ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

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

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.

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.

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.

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).

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

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:http://www.factmag.com/2017/11/13/oneohtrix-point-never-fact-mix-good-time/
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.

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

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*
― the late great, Wednesday, 4 April 2018 17:17 (six years ago) link
cover is very trenchant
The line between critiquing techno-fetishism and just straight up techno-fetishism does feel increasingly nonexistent in 'art these days'
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.
