Almost a decade on from his debut, Sam Shepherd has produced yet another masterful body of hypnotic dancefloor pounders, decorated with agile synths & conductive percussion.

This deep into his discography, we shouldn’t be surprised by his ability to get our heads nodding and our limbs popping but it’s a fresh joy every time this hits the decks. 

'Cascade' pushes Floating Points’ sound forward into new places - the eight songs here are allowed to smoulder and spark for up to eight minutes at a time, allowing for more expansive exploration of sounds and grooves than before. A subtle homage to his hometown of Manchester ripples across Cascade. “Afflecks Palace” an enveloping glide of harp melodies overtaken by otherworldly bleeps and beeps, named after a Mancunian market described as an “emporium of eclecticism.” Elsewhere, there’s ‘Key 103’, named after “an underground Manchester radio station a young Sam Shepherd would listen to “religiously”.

Almost a decade on since 'Elaenia', his revered debut album, the composer has discovered ways to thread his experiments outside of club music seamlessly into his music designed for the dancefloor.
