Floating Points, Pharoah Sanders & the London Symphony Orchestra - Promises
Black Vinyl • Gatefold Sleave
Promises does not rush toward you. It hovers. Floating Points builds the frame with a small repeating phrase, glowing and almost still. Pharoah Sanders moves through it with breath, space and feeling. The London Symphony Orchestra rises slowly behind them, not as decoration, but as weather. Nothing is forced. Nothing is crowded. Jazz, electronics and orchestral weight, held in quiet suspension. A record built on restraint, patience and emotional force. Music that asks you to slow down, then rewards you for staying there.

About the album.
Originally released on 26 March 2021, Promises is a collaborative album by British electronic musician Floating Points, American saxophonist Pharoah Sanders and the London Symphony Orchestra. It was released through Luaka Bop and produced by Floating Points.
The album is structured as one continuous 46-minute composition divided into nine movements, centred around a repeating motif written by Sam Shepherd. Around that motif, Sanders’ saxophone drifts, searches and lifts, while the London Symphony Orchestra adds slow-building strings and orchestral depth.
Widely acclaimed on release, Promises was shortlisted for the 2021 Mercury Prize and became one of Pharoah Sanders’ final major recorded works before his death in 2022.
