The London producer Sam Shepherd, who records as Floating Points, released one of the most arresting debut albums of 2015, Elaenia, a graceful confluence of electronica, modern classical music, and even esoteric jazz. His brand new EP, Kuiper, inspired tonight's special "long songs" edition of UKNY at 11.
The show will not only feature Floating Points' epic title track from Kuiper—a propulsive, thrilling journey—but other extended songs from Radiohead, at New York's Madison Square Garden earlier this week, Euros Childs and others.
Missed the show? You can catch up to UKNY in the FUV Weekend Archives for two weeks after broadcast.
