Floating Points, aka Sam Shepherd, has returned with a new track.
Titled LesAlpx, the house music banger serves as the a-side to a 12" that’s set to arrive via Ninja Tune next month, backed with Coorabell. Discussing it, Shepherd said in a statement:
"I started going back to my early records and all the sounds I loved playing at clubs like Fabric and Plastic People. I wanted to capture the immediacy of that music and the feeling that I got when I was on the dancefloor, of being immersed in a track that pulls you along instantly.
"I actually made these tracks quite quickly, which helped to get rid of any desire to overthink the music — it's essentially the sound of me having loads of fun with the machines in my studio and going back to basics."
Les Alpx also marks the UK producer's first new material since 2017's short film and soundtrack, Reflections - Mojave Desert. His debut album as Floating Points, 'Elaenia', arrived in 2015.
