Oneohtrix Point Never - Replica

Title track:

http://soundcloud.com/mexicansummer/oneohtrix-point-never-replica

And it's a good 'un.

Truely amped for this.

yes that second replica track is really good. I really think that this will be one really good album !

Ordered the LP bundle. Wish this would come out already.

Really liking these preview sounds. But how the fuck are you supposed to say this artist's name? It bugs me greatly.

one oh trix point never

its like 106.7 or something like a radio station

leg it?

good album!

this is a very tasty album i enjoyed it a lot

it has this interesting style of being kind of 'thrown together' which in a lot of casses would not be enjoyable but the lush sounds make it great. its lik ea show case of little looping moments that have time to breathe and then they go away

its yumyum taste after yumyum taste after yumyumtaste

i am going to listen to this 3 more times

also that song with the punching is weird LOL its like , what did the guy let his kid play with his sampler for a day and so he re created the mortal kombat theme song with punch noises, HEH =p

Apparently this is the official music video for Replica, lol

This song is very much a highlight for me. You're right in that the sample is weird and kinda ridiculous, but like all Great OPN Classics I find this song insanely hypnotic and quite addicting *u*

a bit repetitious was my first impression, gonna give it more time. i like the sampled material but OPN is all about the arp

i wasn't fussed about this but after listening to the title track i'm excited to give it a listen. this dude really is interesting...

Odd but awesome.

I love OPN but I ain't feeling this new one at all. His sample manipulation just feels sterile and clumsy. Really tried hard to get into it but it's still a fucking slog to make it through the album. Ah well, he's still had a pretty strong year overall.

love the new one, the first 2 tracks hooked me immediately. I Forgot the good ole days of what it feels like to listen to a record for the first time with a group of friends (not in a chat room but in real life) who haven't heard it yet.

Last track is awesome.

Intriguing stuff... bringing together his sample manipulation and synth stuff... The bass work is amazing on some tracks. Other tracks are a bit... boring in comparision with the rest, I guess releasing only the very good tracks would have made this record sound stronger after all... but never mind

i agree. some of the tracks are aces, but others seem like afterthoughts that weren't given the same attention to detail.

would of made a great EP with some editing, but still a decent album. I'm excited to hear more from this new direction he's going

I did stream a bit the album, that first track seems to be pretty mind blowing ! but I prefer to wait for the real thing to arrive... dunno why !

I feel similarly.

if you read the interview, it goes in depth about the repetition, simplicity, general awkwardness of the sound. seems as though it's all intentional, he wasn't necessarily trying to make an accessible album
