Oneohtrix Point Never has shared a second chapter of his forthcoming radio-inspired album, Magic Oneohtrix Point Never.
‘Midday Suite’, following on from ‘Drive Time Suite’, encompasses five tracks from the album. One of those tracks, ‘No Nightmares’, can be heard above and features vocal contributions from The Weeknd, who it’s been revealed executive produced the album alongside Oneohtrix Point Never. Arca and Caroline Polachek have also made contributions to the record.
The 17-track Magic Oneohtrix Point Never is a reference to Boston’s Magic 106.7 radio station. It takes inspiration from the radio listening experience with a press release explaining that the album "loosely summons the broadcasting logic of radio dayparts, starting in the morning and ending overnight." It;s Daniel Lopatin’s first studio album since 2018’s Age Of and comes a year on from his soundtrack for the Safdie brothers’ film Uncut Gems.
Warp Records will release Magic Oneohtrix Point Never on October 30, 2020.
