  • Early this summer, Editions Mego will release the next full-length by Brooklyn-based experimental artist Daniel Lopatin, AKA Oneohtrix Point Never. The album comes less than a year after Rift, a hefty double-pack that collected Lopatin's first three full-lengths under the moniker. Entitled Returnal, the new record presents a wide scope of beatless electronic compositions, ranging from cataclysmic noise tracks like "Nil Admiradi" to drifting ambient numbers like "Ouroboros." All the songs were performed and recorded by Lopatin on a personal computer and an array of vintage hardware, consisting of an Akai AX-60, a Roland Juno-60, a Roland MSQ-700 and a Korg Electribe ES-1. Returnal will be available on CD and vinyl, with artwork by Sunn O))) guitarist Stephen O'Malley. Tracklist 01. Nil Admirari 02. Describing Bodies 03. Stress Waves 04. Returnal 05. Pelham Island Road 06. Where Does Time Go 07. Ouroboros 08. Preyouandi Editions Mego will release Returnal on June 22nd, 2010.
