Sep 11, 2024Cascade, Shepherd’s first wholly Floating Points album since Crush (2019), is, enthrallingly, made up almost entirely of dancefloor-adjacent bangers, each unique in their tinkering with genre, tempo and chosen instrumentation.
-
Sep 13, 2024Floating Points continues to create striking, original electronic music, and with this album comfortably achieves his aim of creating a set of bangers rich in colour and content. Harnessing his electronic orchestra for wholly uplifting means, Sam Shepherd has made something rather special.

Oct 4, 2024It’s Shepherd’s harnessing of electronic music’s power to tease your imagination to different places that makes Cascade such a wonderful club record.
-
Sep 11, 2024Cascade is yet another marvelous Floating Points album, and easily the most successful work he's made as a dance producer.

MojoSep 11, 2024The delicious, Moroder breakbeat thump of Birth4000 and squealing garagey rave of Vocoder (Club Mix) have the swagger and heft to leave club soundsystems wobbling, but also need good headphones for home enjoyment. [Oct 2024, p.82]

UncutSep 11, 2024Pure pleasure with an experimental edge. [Oct 2024, p.34]

Oct 1, 2024Pulls its weight at the points that count, fumbles mainly at those that don't, feels less successful holistically than it does as the sum of its parts, leaves me with anything but satisfaction by the time it's done, and does very little to address the question of when Shepherd will finally show the chutzpah and scope of vision to make a truly great work on solely his own terms.
