Oneohtrix Point Never - Magic Oneohtrix Point Never Vinyl 2LP

Oneohtrix Point Never returns with a new self-titled album, Magic Oneohtrix Point Never, released on October 30, 2020. It marks his fourth full-length release for Warp Records and follows Age Of (2018). The eponymous title is drawn from Lopatin’s original Oneohtrix Point Never moniker—a misheard play on the Boston soft-rock radio station Magic 106.7.

Musically, the album encompasses all facets of OPN’s output over the past 13 years, from the deconstructed New Age plunderphonics of Replica and R Plus Seven to the alt-rock and chamber pop songwriting of Garden of Delete and Age Of, as well as the symphonic, cinematic qualities of his scores for Uncut Gems and Good Time and his production work for other artists. The self-titled release thus serves as both a nod to his roots and a statement firmly rooted in the present.

Lopatin has long been engaged with radio as a mode of aleatory listening, a theme that continues to inform this work.
