Float

Texas-based experimentalist Gregory Nunn continues his exploration of abstract soundscapes with the 2025 album Float, released through his Language Instinct imprint. Nunn, a prolific figure in the American underground known for numerous aliases such as Field Designer and Ammothea, has established a reputation for intricate sound collage and modular synthesis. Across eleven tracks, the album functions as a sonic mosaic that bridges the gap between traditional ambient drone and the tactile manipulations of musique-concrète. Mastered by Mitchell Meyer, the recording emphasizes a sense of weightlessness and warmth, utilizing layered textures to create an immersive, cloud-like environment. Float arrives as a central piece of Nunn’s recent output, preceding further 2026 explorations into shaky acoustics and experimental electronics. The release situates itself within a lineage of modern sound design, drawing comparisons to the processed, emotive structures of artists like Tim Hecker. Presented as a digital long-form work, the album reinforces Nunn’s position as a significant voice in the contemporary Texas experimental scene.
