Product Description

Floating Points, the alias of producer and DJ Sam Shepherd, presents "Elaenia," a captivating journey through the realms of IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) and Gnawa, a traditional Moroccan music genre. Released on November 6, 2015, under the Pluto label, this album is a testament to Shepherd's innovative production skills and his ability to blend diverse musical influences into a cohesive and enthralling soundscape.

"Elaenia" spans a concise yet impactful 42 minutes, featuring six tracks that weave together intricate electronic beats, hypnotic melodies, and atmospheric textures. The album opens with "Nespole," setting the stage for the sonic exploration that follows. "Silhouettes (I, II & III)" showcases Floating Points' mastery of rhythm and melody, with each part building upon the last to create a mesmerizing suite. The title track, "Elaenia," is a standout, offering a blend of ethereal vocals and pulsating beats that draw the listener in.

Throughout the album, Floating Points demonstrates a deep understanding of both electronic and traditional music forms. Tracks like "Argenté" and "Thin Air" highlight his ability to create immersive soundscapes, while "For Marmish" and "Peroration Six" showcase his skill in crafting dynamic and engaging rhythms. The album is a testament to Floating Points' unique vision and his ability to push the boundaries of electronic music.

  • Wax Excellence, Thoughtful Packaging

    5 out of 5 stars
    yayapforah13 December 2025United Kingdom🇬🇧

    Absolutely, I'm right there with the other reviewer on this one. The packaging is so understated at first glance, but once you open it, you see the thoughtfulness put into every detail, from the photo inside the sleeve, the thorough liner notes, to the inner bag itself. And that wax! It's so quiet and dynamic with incredible instrument separation, even on the more complex tracks. This is outstanding music treated with the utmost care. A labor of love from a dedicated musician. Kudos!

  • Hype Overrated, Unoriginal

    3 out of 5 stars
    aohmiukc30 August 2025United States🇺🇸

    The hype surrounding this album is unjustified, as I can't detect any originality in it. It just seems like a pop-infused mix of 90's Pete Namlook's house-ambient style and The Cinematic Orchestra's jazzy vibe.

  • Clear Dynamic Album Version

    4 out of 5 stars
    VoqukOkplaij21 August 2025United States🇺🇸

    A bit of surface noise creeps in during the quietest parts… but apart from that, this is a clear, dynamic version of this fantastic album. Just so you know, bought it new in 2025 with the blue sticker featuring the Pharaoh Sanders quote.

  • Flawless Vinyl Masterpiece

    5 out of 5 stars
    pjusm_ivu6 July 2025United States🇺🇸

    Honestly, this vinyl release is absolutely flawless. It's pressed on 180 gram black vinyl and comes in a top-notch slipcase. The record is kept safe in a high-quality poly sleeve and has been half-speed mastered. It's a 33rpm double-sided release, featuring the whole album. This makes it an absolute joy to listen to and handle. I can't imagine how it could be any better. The sound quality is outstanding, and the presentation is incredibly satisfying. The music itself is amazing too. From one collector to another, great job Sam. Everyone should take note of this.

  • Timeless Artistic Treasure

    5 out of 5 stars
    Syoguvyi2823 March 2024United States🇺🇸

    A truly outstanding piece of artistry - a timeless treasure for generations ahead.
