The Ninja on this record
At 128 BPM, it lands with the effortless swivel of UK garage refraction, though Floating Points’ signature sound design polishes every hi-hat and sub-bass throb to a near-analytical sheen. The 4B key keeps the harmonic palette open and airy, letting the groove breathe without collapsing into predictability, while a steady seven-out-of-ten energy ensures the room fills without the track ever grabbing for the spotlight. Slot this after something rowdier to let the crowd recalibrate, or use it as a mid-set pivot where the floor expects a drop but gets refinement instead. It is a DJ’s tool with enough personality to stand alone, bridging club functionality and the forward-thinking, hi-fi electronica that this Pluto release embodies.
