Album Review: Floating Points - Kuiper

Christopher H James

"The definitive version of this galactic odyssey somehow does justice to the overwhelming enormity of space..."

More Floating Points Floating Points

Named after a vast formation of cosmic debris outside our solar system, Kuiper has been a favourite from Floating Points' live sets that has been deliberately played differently each time.

Through a combination of shimmering drones, jazz drumming and electric keys, the definitive version of this galactic odyssey somehow does justice to the overwhelming enormity of space over the course of 18 spellbinding minutes. The EP is gently rounded off by the incandescent drifter For Marmish Part II, part one of which appeared on Floating Points' stellar debut Elaenia.
