description Oneohtrix Point Never - Replica Overview

Replica is the fourth studio album by American electronic musician Daniel Lopatin, who records under the name Oneohtrix Point Never. Released in 2011 on Warp Records, it marked his first album with the label. The music is constructed primarily from looped and heavily processed audio fragments sampled from 1980s and 1990s television commercials. This plunderphonics approach results in ambient, glitchy collages that explore themes of memory and nostalgia.
