The Floe

**The Floe** is the indie electronic brainchild of Chicago-based artist Michael Wade, blending dreamy synthscapes with indie rock sensibilities since the early 2000s. Known for crafting atmospheric tracks layered with introspective lyrics, Wade’s project thrives on balancing electronic experimentation with melodic warmth. Recent releases like *Headlights* and *One Deep Breath* showcase his knack for moody, textured soundscapes, while *Simple Pleasures (Live)* highlights how his studio creations evolve in dynamic live settings. The *Deco Remixes* EP and tracks like *No Looking Back* also reflect his collaborative spirit, often inviting reworks that reimagine his work. Whether through studio gems or stripped-back performances, The Floe remains a quietly compelling force in the indie electronic realm.
