    I've been listening to him since I was 14, I'm 21 now. I always thought that he had this dark, doomer-like personality, but this interview shows that he's a funny dude! Beautiful smile. Thank you for everything, Daniel. You shaped my music taste forever.

It's been fun watching remixes from Magic release with pop singers vocals over them. I hope he has more influence over pop as a whole as he moves forward.

    Just saw this guy play a show in Sydney last week, and I can say hands down that this was one of the most fully immersive experiences I have ever had. From the music, to the lighting and visuals… everything was on point. It felt like more of a hyper sensory experience than just listening to some music, closer to being inside a movie or painting than anything else.

    This is another level of inspirational. No. 1 on my bookmarks bar for any time I hit a wall.
    For anyone wondering how It may feel for OPN when messing with music...
    During the music parts of this video, switch up the video speed (0.5, 0.75, 1.25, 1.5).
    Or hit 'custom' above that. Use your arrows to scroll between loads of varied speeds.
    'K' and 'Spacebar' are both play and pause, 'M' is mute, alternate them/hit them together or even better, press and hold, to make glitchy stutters. (double tap, hold on second tap to avoid long pause)
    See, everyone is a musician, and everything is an instrument.

    I relate to this music on a spiritual level. Idk if it the nostalgic factor of being in a hypnopompic state while falling asleep to the television in the late 80's/early 90's, the aesthetic and structure of sound that I grew up with hearing tangerine dream, even pink floyd as a young child.. I truly don't know. But I relate to it.

    Which Boss pedal is he using there?

      looks like a TR-2 which would do a good job chopping up/stuttering stuff with the tremolo effect set real deep (I'd venture to guess)

      @@PacificNatureTV I think that pedal is SL-2... it has 4 black plastic knobs... I am still not sure about this one.
