“reaffirms that there’s no end to the wilfully obscurantist manoeuvres of Keigo Oyamada, aka Cornelius. Not for him mere sublime popscapery dressed in its Sunday best. Alongside fellow upbeat mavericks such as Max Tundra and Four Tet, it’s the mischievous desire to deconstruct his own perfectly rounded pop snapshots that marks him down as a post-everything wunderkind. Like all of Matador’s new-sound adventurists, Cornelius paints unorthodox, brainiac tapestries with a healthy non-puritan ethos. But where others are prone to explore tearful territory, ‘Point’ chooses the gentlest of found sounds and the brightest of colours from the post-rock palette.” - Darren Johns, NME
