Last week, Daniel Lopatin announced a new Oneohtrix Point Never album, Again, which is set for release on September 29 via Warp. Today, he’s shared the first single, ‘A Barely Lit Path’, which was recorded with the NOMAD Ensemble and an orchestra conducted and arranged by Robert Ames. Freeka Tet, the experimental artist known for his work with Amnesia Scanner and Aphex Twin, directed the song’s accompanying video, which you can check out below.
Again, the follow-up to 2020’s Magic Oneohtrix Point Never, was described by a press release as “speculative autobiography” and “‘an illogical period piece’ where memory and fantasy converge to form something entirely new.” Its cover artwork is a sculpture created by Matias Faldbakken, conceptualized with Lopatin, and photographed by Vegard Kleven.
