%% title = "Floating Points - Tilt Shift / Ablaze"
% id = "01JK5SN2WBQ1Y4SR1BQGSKRAKG"
- the two last tracks on Floating Points's latest album, [_Cascade_](https://floatingpoints.bandcamp.com/album/cascade).
they form a continuous mix, so I always talk about them as one.
% id = "01JK5SN2WB1Y76ABASAY0QFHNV"
- these are my single highlight of the album.
amidst the pumping beats, floral patterns, and fractal palaces, you find these melancholic little gems...
% id = "01JK5SN2WBJYBSM758ZF63WC7N"
- listening to _Tilt Shift_, I see visions of traffic in a city at night.
streaks of light travelling along the streets, illuminated by lanterns and buildings around.
% id = "01JK5SN2WBG6B8SH8FKBQ3198R"
- as the sound distorts, the light streaks become more smudged, shifted.
% id = "01JK5SN2WBZG4Y9XV0YHH0R2XT"
- it's as if the whole city is responding to a call to dance with the track.
% id = "01JK5SN2WBSX7Q84BKN74R2E54"
- then the beat ends, and you find yourself standing on a bridge crossing a river.
% id = "01JK5SN2WB2BHMRBGA7M58734J"
- contemplating life, how beautiful and full of life the city can seem at night.
% id = "01JK5SN2WB7JH6H0YV53C5YQ0J"
- looking at the calming waves, listening to the sound of the water.
far from the city centre, just pondering, taking a pause...
% id = "01JK5SN2WBWP4TJ4TP7PXY36P3"
- as the music slowly fades away.
% id = "01JK5SN2WBN01AWB1ME6CFG68G"
- as you see dreams flickering in the front...
% id = "01JK5SN2WB091DE6TFM0CYPVMH"
- as you imagine sky lanterns flying high.
in various shapes.
% id = "01JK5SN2WBKBM2KVN71DPZDQSW"
- I imagine it would be fun to make a music video from at-night Tokyo footage for these two tracks.
% id = "01JK5SN2WBJCP96GXY2QFFCGNQ"
- it honestly saddens me to know most people will never hear these.
they were barely promoted, with no music videos to speak of...
honestly, I'm not even sure they fit the album they were born into.
% id = "01JK5SN2WBJJMMYE5J87EWKAFJ"
- but they will forever remain my two little underrated Floating Points gems.

- visions of a city ever living, ever calming.

- I've been meaning to write about those tracks [for the longest time](https://src.liquidev.net/riki/treehouse/issues/23), but just didn't get around to it.
today I was giving the album another listen, and decided to write up my visions.
so that I can remember, and so the world can see, too...
