Floating Points - Mary Anne Hobbs Mix

FLOATING POINTS - MARY ANNE HOBBS MIX 11.10.19 (320kbs-m4a/52mb/22mins)
BBC Radio 6 Music broadcast: 11th October 2019

Ravers welcomes Floating Points to the 6 Music Decks for a live Friday mini mix. Floating Points aka Sam Shepherd recently announced a new album Crush, due out next month. The album will be released via Ninja Tune on the 18th of October and Shepherd offered another tantalising taste of what we can expect, when he shared new track 'Last Bloom' and announced new live dates, including his biggest headline show to date and London's Printworks.

'Crush' is Floating Points' first album in four years and follows on from his glorious compilation for the Late Night Tales series, which he put together earlier this year. Crush was made during an intense five-week period, inspired by the invigorating improvisation of his shows supporting The xx in 2017. It also includes some of his heaviest tracks yet, a nod to the UK bass scene he emerged from in the late 2000s. Given that Shepherd is also the man who dropped a 20 minute instrumental by spiritualsaxophonist Pharoah Sanders in Berghain, we can't wait to hear what he puts together for this mix.

So wherever you are, whatever you're doing, grab your earbuds (or take charge of that glorious early noughties era mini hi-fi in your office), and get ready to welcome in the weekend.
