Oneohtrix Point Never

Oneohtrix Point Never is the recording name of composer Daniel Lopatin. His music has been described as “gentle eddies of sound”, and “l(fā)ike a cracked mirror refracting the sounds of the past.” A first-generation American, Lopatin is the son of immigrants from the former Soviet Union, both with musical backgrounds. Some of his first experiments with electronic music were inspired by his father’s collection of dubbed jazz-fusion tapes and his Roland Juno-60, an instrument that has since been used extensively by Lopatin in the studio and on-stage.
Lopatin is often credited as a major pioneer in, or more frequently the creator of, the vaporwave genre, due to his pseudonymous 2010 album, Chuck Person's Eccojams Vol. 1. He also runs the record label Software Recording Co., a subsidiary of Kemado Records. His alias is derived from a play on the radio station WMJX which is frequency 106.7 in Boston.
