Oneohtrix Point Never – Replica

In my opinion, this is one of the most iconic albums of our generation. This album blends a lofi sample-driven cacophony with the most beautiful sways in timing and harmony. At first listen when it came out i was mesmerized. As the years have ed, Replica holds up as a timeless sound collage and also a very unique album that has likeness to almost nothing on the market. As if Boards of Canada had a baby with Aphex Twin, but with even more loose boundaries. Highly recommend

yea yay yes yes, there's distortion on this repress (A5)

my copy never had its # written in. just says ___/1000

I can’t tell if mines a 2021 ( seller said it was) pressing sounds amazing, tiny bit of surface noise but no , no distortion, or complaints I’m very happy with this

got a copy of this repress today to replace the original I sold a few years back. it's slightly warped and has a bit of surface noise, but overall sounds noticeably better than my old one, lacking the distortion that plagued some copies of the 2011 pressing.

Apparently there are new pressings of this record. Can someone explain to me why these are not listed as "Reissue"/"Repress". I mean, they can't have been pressed by Rainbo, can they...? As far as I can , there was a separate entry for these newer pressings, but eventually the entry was merged back in with this release. Seems odd considering Rainbo closed a few years ago and the newest vinyl must have been pressed somewhere else. Is there anyone here who might be able to the matrix/runout info on the (supposedly) newer pressings? That would be great, thanks!

Sound quality is good and it comes with a cool insert, but the sleeve seems really flimsy and could bend easily

Great to find that out now..... Wish sites that deal with vinyl imports in my country (aka raru.co.za.....) would be a bit more open with their sources. Don't want to risk discogs marketplace as shipping fees get outlandish. No idea if I have the original pressing or this rerelease now. Either way, I'm very glad with the record, one of my favorite OPN albums by far.

My copy came with a sticker on the cover. Anybody else?

My copy sounds pretty great. Very minimal noise and has a pretty good dynamics, especially considering how cheap this record was ($20 total from Mexican Summer). It’s possible that some of the early pressings were not great.
