oneohtrix point never

atsonicpark · 01.03.2010, 06:43 PM

I've talked about them on other threads but I figured they needed their own.. great band (er, great guy).

Derek · 01.03.2010, 06:53 PM

Something I'd like?

Genteel Death · 01.03.2010, 06:55 PM

What do they sound like? I can't access myspace, at the moment.

atsonicpark · 01.03.2010, 06:55 PM

They're minimal synth, for the most part. Lots of synth. It's good.

Derek I'm CooLy on slsk right now if you want to get an aldumb.

Genteel Death · 01.03.2010, 07:03 PM

The very little of this new wave minimal synth I've heard didn't do much for me. Are there particular selling points for this band? Also, any of the newer bands I should check out?

atsonicpark · 01.03.2010, 07:06 PM

I'm not sure, I'm not really familiar enough with the genre as a whole yet.

Genteel Death · 01.03.2010, 07:11 PM

A lot of the stuff I know is fairly old.

james ferraro type shit, the few things i've heard haven't done much for me

atsonicpark · 01.03.2010, 09:37 PM

Well, Ferraro has a thousand albums, and this guy has quite a few already, so I don't know what you've heard, but I don't think those two artists sound much alike at all..

Toilet & Bowels · 01.03.2010, 09:42 PM

yeah they're different but that's the general stylistic ball park

SYRFox · 01.04.2010, 12:50 AM

I thought you already liked him, Genteel. Strange.
I love Oneohtrix Point Never. I want to buy Rifts but it keeps appearing/disappearing on Amazon - and I have no paypal account yet.

Bal · 01.04.2010, 12:06 PM

i dont think rifts sound any special..
classic detroit techno from the mid 80s used to sound exactly like that but 20+ years ago..
and even techno producers these days make minimal synth music like this
try stefan goldmann's 'voices of the dead' for example or innervision 'muting the noise compilation'
from last year this was the best tune in this genre.
ame are kings anyways

_slavo_ · 01.04.2010, 12:55 PM

I like his music a lot.

It's got lots of 80's synth nostalgia, which is the prevailing feeling that's coming out of this music. Rifts has been in my player much recently and so have the other records of his.
What I really fancy though, are his "Memory Vague" jams ... the weird combinations of looped sounds with psychedelic 80s style computer graphics. Awesome, if you ask me!

Check some of them out:

I finally ordered Rifts this afternoon

ni'k · 01.05.2010, 05:24 AM

i've never even considered that i would listen to or like synth music but i really like oneohtrix - everyone needs the ruine lives CS which is different from everything else he's done and entirely essential

narlus · 01.05.2010, 01:11 PM

i saw Dan this year open for Prefuse 73 and his performance was much noisier than what _Rifts_ contains.

I quite enjoy _Rifts_...reminds me of mid-70s german stuff.

Isn't that called hypnagogic pop nowadays, as coined by David Keenan in The Wire some months ago?

Terrible genre name, I wish he'd just called it james ferraro type shit instead.

Anyway, I do enjoy Oneohtrix Point Never and other recent synth folks like James Ferraro, Emeralds and Stellar OM Source.

blunderbuss · 01.06.2010, 12:21 AM

He's touring Europe with Carlos Giffoni's No Fun Acid in March.

Toilet & Bowels · 01.06.2010, 05:10 AM

i like james ferraro and spencer clark's stuff, but overall it's not a style of music that enthuses me that greatly.

Toilet & Bowels · 01.06.2010, 05:13 AM

actually I like ducktails a lot, that's probably my favorurite of this stuff.
