Sam Shepherd aka Floating Points has released a new single today entitled ‘Vocoder’ via Ninja Tune.
The track marks a return to the producer’s solo work after last year’s top of the list collaborative album Promises with Pharoah Sanders and the London Symphony Orchestra,.
‘Vocoder’ is typical of Sheperd’s penchant for creating memorable dance and electronic tracks with a minimal sonic palette, and is markedly a hugher BPM than most of his usual work
Floating Points is playing Forbidden Fruit this summer.
