This week we’re highlighting new music from Floating Points, Dora Jar, and Foxing.
Floating Points – Cascade
Floating Points’ Cascade marks a return to the dancefloor for Sam Shepherd, blending his expertise in electronic music with the musical depth he’s honed over years. Released on Ninja Tune, the album follows Shepherd’s 2021 collaboration with Pharoah Sanders and is a direct sequel to 2019’s Crush. Cascade is a vibrant, club-focused record featuring industrial-strength tracks like ‘Vocoder,’ with chaotic synths and unpredictable rhythms. While showcasing softer, more intricate moments with guest appearances like J-pop legend Hikaru Utada, Cascade reaffirms Shepherd’s mastery of blending spontaneity with precision.
Standout Songs: ‘Vocoder (Club Mix),’ ‘Birth4000,’ ‘Ocotillo,’ and ‘Tilt Shift.’
