Late Night Tales: Floating Points received favorable reviews. Fred Thomas of AllMusic wrote, "...producer Sam Shepherd weaves together an intricate mix of dusky jazz, pastel-colored ambient tracks, and orchestral soul sounds from around the globe that begin to mirror the same patchwork of rhythms and vibes that makes up the best of his Floating Points compositions."[1] Pitchfork's Andy Beta wrote, "Shepherd takes the opportunity to float through an unhurried selection of ruminative, crepuscular music for the wee hours. Unlike his good friend Four Tet's own eclectic contribution to the series, Floating Points keeps the mood consistent."[2] Resident Advisor's Matt McDermott wrote, "Late Night Tales' 17 tracks are unsurprisingly tasteful including many that are impossibly rare. But it's not an overly studied trainspotters' paradise. Many of the obscure songs should appeal to the fanbase drawn in by Shepherd's productions."[3]

Sam Davies of XLR8R wrote that "Many of Shepherd's choices are the product of hours spent listening to music, a penchant for the obscure which is to be applauded, but the true art of DJing, as Shepherd exhibits here, lies in making connections between records—not based on genre or bpm, but because together they create the desired mood, tell a particular story, paint a certain picture; whatever the metaphor, it’s a skill not just in playing music, but in listening to it." Crack Magazine's Katy Hawthorne wrote, "It's no surprise that Floating Points' contribution to the Late Night Tales series feels so healing and patient. The DJ, producer, Eglo Records co-founder and actual neuroscientist specialises in fluid, warming electronic music that has become increasingly mind-bending since his 2009 debut J&W Beat."[10]
