    Lopatin's best work since 2013's "R Plus Seven", it contains a few large features with The Weeknd, Arca, and Nolanberollin.

    One of Lopatin’s best album: a great compendium of his skills with an unexpected tendency to the emotional, empathetic side, leaving the listener with a pleasant and intimate moment, and a warm feeling inside, similar to a nostalgic happiness

    As ever, it's as unpredictable as it is beguiling. [Jan 2021, p.31]

    Overstuffed with ideas, some of Magic Oneohtrix Point Never's odd juxtapositions and clever references feel merely "neat." You don't get the sense Lopatin's deeply invested—more that he's throwing concepts at the wall and seeing what sticks. There are stunning moments on Magic Oneohtrix Point Never.

    The album still comprises some truly enchanting touches that could only have come from him, and often they appear when working around a vocalist. These pop turns envision a world where radio hits have a bit more depth and experimentation, and if Lopatin’s output can continue to minutely steer mainstream music that way, then so much the better.
