BEMF 2015: Floating Points (live) + Paul Raffaele

After countless singles and EPs, Sam Shepherd a.k.a. Floating Points visits NYC with an 11-piece band to perform from his debut LP, Elaenia, which arrives November 6. The young British neuroscience Ph.D. has won fans from Caribou to Jamie xx with his jazz-influenced, improvisational dance-floor tracks that have more in common with post-rock bands like Tortoise than the latest four-on-the-floor club banger.
