Floating shelves would be a challenge for records. They cannot support a lot of weight due to their design. So in order to get a full shelf (say 4 ft long), you'd need some sturdy floating shelf support AND make sure to have them attached to the studs.
If you look at those (https://www.amazon.com/Solid-Steel-Heavy-Floating-Bracket/dp/B01FL4551S), the rating is 150 lbs, but that's for 6" shelves. With records that are 12", I'd say that the rating is divided by 2. Assuming that a record is 0.5 lbs, that means that a shelf like that can only support about 120 records. But at 24" long, you can't really put more than 100 records anyway.
Adding the cost of the shelf (assuming $10). It would cost $50 per 100 records.
Unless you are ready to spend a fair amount of money, Kallax are still the best choice around.
