>write great album
>need to come up with album artwork
>open Illustrator and just scribble all over a white background
>pleb listeners think it's so meaningful and that the art represents the chaotic and spontaneous nature of life reflected in the music

I could die to For Marmish
It honestly is a great piece of work.
>>60285905
fuck yes, i feel the same about silhuettes
>>60285879
Hard to say really. I don't think there's a single song on here that I don't like. Silhouettes is such a beautiful composition, but I really love the chords/Rhodes piano on For Marmish as well. Peroration Six is a fucking SOLID closer too with its post-rock influences, but on the flip side of the coin, Elaenia is a gorgeous ambient track. Argenté -> Thin Air pulsates in such an delicate, enticing manner, and then finally Nespole, however one may classify it, is just a really nice song that seems to tie in a lot of the themes from the entire record without being too flashy or forgettable.
At first when I'd seen the tracklist I was disappointed that there weren't a whole lot of long form songs/that it was only seven tracks in length, but now I'm really glad to listen to it as a whole. Definitely one of the more complete/cohesive albums to come out this year. I'm just hoping that he'll do a bit of a run through the states sometime in 2016.

im glad im not the only person with those thoughts on elaenia. the instrumentation is just gorgeous
>>60285663
Pretty good, as lauded as it is it's not very accessible or streamlined which is nice
>>60285885
Actually in the RA feature about Floating Points it's mentioned that he made the album art using some custom engraving machine he made, nice being retarded though
>>60285916
Pristine but kind of soulless, always surprised it came out on PAN, seemed like a weird fit.
>>60285772
I don't want to get into an argument here but Eleania isn't bleep at all.
I really enjoy it but it's not dance music.
>>60287516
agreed, i was just saying that FP is inarguably bleep tho. majority of mu outside of /bleep/ prolly don't know who FP is, and it's a dang shame cos this lp is too good to go unnoticed.
