Sam Shepherd, known as Floating Points, announces his forthcoming fifth album Cascade, slated for release on Ninja Tune. Alongside this announcement, Shepherd unveils the lead single 'Key103,' continuing his ongoing collaboration with Tokyo-based artist Akiko Nakayama. Cascade emerges as a culmination of creative evolution. In late 2022, Shepherd found himself in the California desert, crafting a new sonic journey. This album follows his acclaimed Promises, where he ventured into airy dreamscapes with saxophonist Pharoah Sanders and the London Symphony Orchestra, earning a Mercury Prize nomination and a sold-out Hollywood Bowl show in 2023. With Cascade, Shepherd returns to his electronic roots, craving the pulse-racing communion of the dance floor. This album serves as a sequel to Crush, diving deeper into ravey, experimental realms, unexplored due to lockdown cancellations. Tracks draw inspiration from Manchester's record shops and California's desert landscapes, blending Buchla rhythms and glitching melodies. Shepherd's journey, from orchestral collaborations to laptop productions, underscores his relentless pursuit of innovation.
