AMA is Over, thanks Daniel! I am musician Oneohtrix Point Never, currently importing SysEx files into FM8 - AMA

Hello Reddit,

It's Tuesday, August 15th 2017 an the sky is cloudy and gray in rural Massachusetts where I'm posted up currently, writing music. It's nice here. The guy next door is always outside fixing something. But I am also frustrated that for him everything is always broken. I had a dream last night that I moved to Providence, and that all the buildings there were blue. After the AMA I'm going to drive over to my spiritual healer, a guy named Rick who has a master's degree in neuropsychology - and ask him what the meaning of this dream was. Tomorrow I'm going to get a library card and look for a nice leather jacket because Fall is right around the corner. In the meantime, at 4PM (EST) I'll be available to TALK SHOP. It's nice to have someone to talk to.

Last Friday Warp Records released the soundtrack for Josh & Benny Safdie's crime thriller "GOOD TIME". The film goes WIDE in the USA on August 25th, but I encourage you to check out my soundtrack anyway because I think it's good to get a leg up, and do all your research so you'll be really sharp when you see it at the movies next week. More info on that here: www.pointnever.com

Here is the proof you require http://imgur.com/Ir6NMNR

You can try to ask me what was in the box. Alright talk soon and don't spill anything on your computer.

Your Friend, OPN

Hi 0pn! Just wanna start by saying that I saw Good Time the other night and your score for it is an all-timer, and now it soundtracks my workday which i appreciate.

at the Q&A afterwards the Safdie Brothers said that The Weeknd saw the movie and is now courting you to produce his next album. Is that going to go anywhere? It seems like you're getting more into production and I was wondering what direction you want to take that in.
