Floating Points, also known as Sam Shepherd, is a British electronic music producer, DJ, and musician from Manchester, known for blending electronic, jazz, ambient, and house genres. What sets him apart is his ability to craft long, exploratory DJ sets where genre boundaries dissolve and unexpected connections emerge, and his live shows often incorporate improvisation and a melding of electronic and organic elements, sometimes with live visual artists and instrumentalists.
