ONEOHTRIX POINT NEVER COVER GROUPER


The other day I posted a few intergalactic synth swells from Oneohtrix Point Never. Today I came across OPN covering one of last year's most generally blabbed about tracks, "Heavy Water" by Grouper. This version takes the beautiful vocal melody and wraps it in all sorts of healthy pulses, rainbow prism lightshaft gleams, shooting stars and various otherworldly tones.

The track is streaming from the Upstairs CDR Myspace. Upstairs CDR will be releasing a compilation next month titled Radio Scenic Dip Vol. 1 and will feature rad dudes Julian Lynch, Nonhorse (Lucas Crane of Woods), Alice Cohen and OPN's Grouper cover, among others. Stay tuned for more info on the comp and keep yourself busy with the "Heavy Water" cover, as well as chillzone tracks from Julian Lynch and Nonhorse AT MYSPACE.
