tra

Released as a three-track precursor to the full-length album 'Tranquilizer', the 'Tra' EP sees Oneohtrix Point Never building compositions from the sonic palette of lost 1990s sample CDs. The songs showcase a process of turning obsolete audio clichés inside out, shifting between ominous, percussion-less soundscapes and lush, dream-like synth compositions marked by jittery, complex rhythms. This juxtaposition of ambient calm and digital chaos explores themes of mnemonic decay and technological ennui.
