@@manugra100 Love it, too, but the sounds are quite oldschool like from vintage synthesizers before the 90ies. Just playing around with waveforms and so on. Very similar also to Underworld's music. I prefer Ben Böhmer to this or is this style the new hype in this decade?
This is a man who puts 100% of his effort into everything he does. Truly one of the most innovative and skilled creators of our time. Thank you RA for posting this.
Listen to his albums and eps, he's not just another electronic music producer. His albums are filled with tracks that are a mix of various genres like minimal, ambient, old school house, jazz chord progressions etc. There are tracks that sound like Bonobo, others that sound like underground/abstract techno, deep house beats all mixed delicately without overpowering the sound. I cannot label Floating Points as a techno DJ, or a House producer or ambient artist. He's very unique and his use of synths and arpeggios I something very few people can do. He's a true artist, not a DJ. Also check out Max Cooper, Four-Tet, David August etc.
@@hjjhkkjhhjkxdf9184 it's something you have to experience live. Of course listening and watching he's just another artist but trust me, the whole euphoric experience he creates through light and sound live is what makes him so innovative. Very few electronic musicians are capable of that, richie hawtin and chemical bros are good examples if you've seen them live.
I have listened to this set countless times with headphones, and recently bought a pair of Linn Ninka speakers. Today I sat down on my armchair and put this on. Originally I just wanted to briefly check what it sounds like. 1 hour, 29 minutes and just as many seconds later the trip was over. Give yourself a favour and play this on a decent set of speakers. The souncdscaping is pure bliss.
@@JorisTechTalk I now have a rega Elex-R. I believe at the time I wrote this I still had my old Sony TA-F270, which also worked somewhat with the Ninkas, but with the rega, it's a different game. Probably the next thing I'd do is buy different speakers (suggestions :> ? ). Actually then the first thing I did once I had the rega was to invite 2 friends over and listen to this Floating Points set in 1 eyes-closed start-to-finish sitting.
His more recent sets like the one in Manchester are far better. I'm having to skip through this one because it's just not his best so I'm not enjoying it.
20:47 i love how often he puts in a big build up to what ends up being a super bare bones, clean, and minimalist drop. so energizing. knows when to pull back right when you are expecting more.
57:44 during Anasickmodular, the moment when the strings start to sound wider is, perhaps, one of the most beautiful moments in electronic music history
He released the best eletronic album of the year, this is the foundation for the music of the future. When the modern Mozart will be born he would take inspiration from this.
The modern mozart has already been born, he goes by the name of richard. . In 100 years time they will speak very highly of his genius and contribution to the world😁
@@haminacan i think of myself as weird also😁 the catalogue is vast, under many monikers, i would say something is there for everyone if you are not overwhelmed by this fact or put off by weird track names. Iz-us, polynomial-c, agesopolis, vordhosbn, avril 14th are just a couple i would suggest to anyone looking to start their journey down the long, winding and twisting road into the depths of one of the best catalogues of music from the last 30 years. To this day i still find music that surprises me. He is your favourite musicians favourite musician. A true pioneer in his field. What would be your suggestions for somebody looking to find a starting point?
simply amazing. thank you for recording this and releasing it, it really deserves to be seen. one man's music and vision embodied into an amazing evening. an experience for all senses. i really think this is quite special. big up to everyone that worked on it, especially sam
I have been listening to all forms of electronic music for 30 years and this recording has moved right into my top 10 ever. WOW I have to see this live.
even this recording of the set is one of the most awe-inspiring things i've ever seen, can't imagine what it must have been like to be in the room. unreal stuff.
I can't believe it.. I 'found' Floating Points and quickly looked up live sets. Missed this set by a day. Looks absolutely fantastic though, can't wait to catch the next one!!
Absolutely mesmerising, every moment and every sound is just perfect. God couldn't have sculpted a set better than this himself. How on Earth is Sam going to top this?! Surely it's impossible...
Unbelievable set, the visuals, the setting, the Sound.... 1:05:35 gave me goosebumps, you could hear a pin drop and all of a sudden that insaaaaane bassline! I salute you Mr Points
Completely stumbled on this today. Heard some songs before but this is special. Ratio from start to finish is Sublime. Well done to Sam, RA and the venue. Amazing.
Yes he is a true Audiophile - Anasickmodular through my Audeze LCD headphones is absolutely mind-bending, sam really is thinking quite forward with his music.
Saw him at Dour Festival 2018, already loved his music beforehand but his set was something else. Not your average set, challenging and hypnotic. He worked the crowd into an absolute frenzy!!
Still to this day I think this was the best live performance I've ever seen... The atmosphere at the start was slightly subdued, the horizontal layout of the hangar was peculiar and i wasn't sure if it was going to work. However as the visuals came up on that back wall and the atmosphere built I knew this was going to be a truly memorable experience...
Wartching loads of boiler room and RA you see and hear alot of crap. This is beautiful, not just great production but a masterfully creative set. Well done. Very jealous here in the states.
Highly recommend you visit Printworks then! I was Jon Hopkins, Modeselektor and few others on soundcrash gig last Friday and it was magical! The video here doesn’t do it’s justice how amazing the venue is!
Tracklist:
01. Falaise 00:30
02. ARP3 05:12
03. Ratio 15:19
04. Nuits Sonores 23:57
05. Karakul 39:33
06. Environments 44:43
07. Anasickmodular 52:34
08. LesAlpx 01:04:26
09. Coorabell 01:10:53
10. Bias 01:21:12
Just wish the audio could be as good as the video. Is this uploaded anywhere other than youtube? or is this as good as it gets?
LesAlpx starts at 59:49
how can you tell
😁😂♓🆓
That cant be all tracks? So he only has 10 songs in his 1h and 29min dj set??
Can we take a moment to thank RA for not putting ads on this

Floating Points sounds like the part of Aphex Twin that loves his mother and finds forrests enjoyable.

Such a clever way to put a drop in a song. It sounds so accidental yet purposely left in.

just, wow.
I feel that. Def got lost in this mix and cane out at the end wanting more.
Its easy to get lost in mind to floating points music
Agree, this is awe inspiring!
More of a story rather than a set , love it

Wow. No words.
This is the Bicep Live set of 2019. Thanks again RA.
True! I Listen non stop to both of them.
recently saw the new live show of Bicep in Brussels, man, what an experience!
Stroke my neurons, daddy.
They study neuroscience i heard....

I love that festival, would have loved to go again this year!
thank you. thank you. thank you.

When I see big appreciations about a non-mainstream exhibition like this one, I feel like the world taste level in music is not so low

Every time I watch this I get upset I wasn’t there. I hope he does another set similar to this soon I’m waiting
Christmas has come early. Incredible
Holy fuck that transition from Ratio to Nuits Sonores
Nuits Sonores is still an absolute wonder of a track.
56:10 absolute magician at what he does
Yeah that transition is fantastic.
What I would give to go and see this man live
I found Floating Points music a month after he was in my city. This is such a good video!
Lourd, tellement lourd. Définitivement celui qui fait le plus planer mes oreilles avec toutes les fréquences possibles et imaginable !!

Four tet and one of his many aliases/caribou/Daphni/Boards of Canada/aphex/rei harakami for different kind of idm
MADMADMAD. Great band, descriptions in the name.
Erik Satie.
His KEXP performance. 100% bliss
Shout out to the lighting technicians, that audiovisual glitchiness before Nuits Sonores gives me chills! (24:00 - 27:00)
I can´t thank you enough for this!
Sounds from another dimensions.
Gracias por compartir 👍 maximo respeto y mucha vibra positiva 😎
Would be pretty cool if we could take some great old composers to this kinda show and see if they vibe or nah.
incredible gig , the sound was something else and the support act kirkis was also good
Looks like it was a great gig!
Could this be one of the best electronic lives ever?
Yes
this is a spiritual experience
0:00-15:00 is pure bliss
Out of body experience hearing his set at Centquatre Paris last nite
Simply breathtaking, thank you for sharing this xx I need this during quarantine at my house chilling😍😍
The transition from Anasickmodular to LesAlpx at 59:30 is pure class
Emotional, thanks Sam
still remember when i got to watch him at the main stage of body in soul in 2016
truly amazing
What a fantastic set!
Also, Patrick Nation 🙌🏽
What beautiful direction and editing. Makes the whole thing surreal!
Thanks man! ❤️
Glorious. What a genius
Nuits sonores loooooveeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel like every time I listen to one of his sets I am actually hearing a piece of his mind. Not sure how to explain it.
every time an artist shares their creation, they share a part of their soul...
