Sam Shepherd aka Floating Points has today

announced his new album Cascade will be

released on 13 September via Ninja Tune. Along

with the announcement Shepherd has shared

lead single 'Key103' which comes with visuals

continuing his ongoing collaboration with Tokyo

based artist Akiko Nakayama. Shepherd released

Crush, his rave-reviewed second studio album, in

November 2019. It was hailed as one of the

albums of that year by Pitchfork, The

Independent, Mixmag, Loud And Quiet and more

– "but I never got to explore its ravey,

experimental side live", laments the musician,

whose world tour was cancelled due to

lockdown. Cascade was devised as a follow-on

from Crush that would allow him (and audiences)

to experience Floating Points in its traditional

form on a dancefloor once more: bursting with

Buchla rhythms, glitching melodies bewitching a

room full of heaving bodies.
