Let’s get this straight from the start, to quote Kevin Rowland – whatever musical hat he’s wearing, David Jaycock writes fantastic songs and tunes. In the guise he’s adopted for his latest album Hold. Star. Return, he’s buried himself in analogue synths to make a delightful record of 80s flecked synthpop. Taking influences from across …

As I constantly point out, Warp Records is one of, if not my favourite label. Ever. And one of its most brilliant and interesting artists right now is Oneohtrix Point Never, aka Daniel Lopatin.
