OPN is dope, but i find it hard to get through some of those meandering synth tracks on some of his albums (Memory Vague comes to mind). He has made some great tracks though, especially on Returnal.

i also prefer GAMES to his other aliases and projects (oneohtrix point never, KGB MAN, chuck person, dania shapes, etc etc) but OPN releases awesome music. listen to these songs if you haven't already. only bangers.

across the board, daniel lopatin is definitely leading the way in the underground hipster music scene. ain't nobody even remotely coming close. and tigercity sucks lol. check out joel ford's new project called "airbird". go to his myspace and listen to the "dania shapes remix". it go.

Yeah, i've heard most of those. Nobody Here is awesome, that and Angel are probably the only tracks i can listen to more than once off 'Memory Vague' though.

I can get into the Zones Without People album, but it takes effort almost. That Laser to Laser track is nice, never heard it before.

And yeah, i've checked out Airbird and Megafortress, and read an interview where he talked about Software.

How they now have access to an entire recording studio, as often as they want. Should be interesting to see what comes out of that.

What he call his music? Synth-Psych or something? It's a pretty accurate description.

Been listening to various beatish things:
