FLUME 2022 ALBUM CRACK
He’d hand me some of these ads, I would have a crack at it and see what I could do. I was probably 13 or 14, and I had an interest in doing music and was always messing around on the computer, downloading torrented software, things I couldn’t afford.

Sometimes he’d have clients who wouldn’t like the library music they were offering for some of the small ads, so he’d hand me the video like, “Can you make something for this?” My dad was particularly supportive of it.

My dad, he actually owned a production company making TV ads.

My mom was a horticulturist, so she would teach us about plants and plant life. What did your folks do for a living when you were growing up? What do they think of your job now?

FLUME 2022 ALBUM DOWNLOAD
As a kid, I used to just go on Napster or Kazaa or whatever, and download music. I think what shaped me and my music is the Internet being able to access the world of music at my fingertips. How do you feel growing up in Sydney shaped who you are as a person and artist? He’s one of my friends that is really into it, and we go nerd out, record some stuff and hopefully something good happens.Ģ. We’ve got modular synths, the ones that look really crazy and you got to plug the stuff in. I’m about to go in and do a session with my friend Charlie. I live in Byron, which is two hours south, but my mom is up here, and I’m in Australia for a second so I thought I’d come see her.

Still, with another thoughtful and intentional studio masterpiece now under his belt, another Gramophone is likely coming Flume’s way next year for Palaces. The Grammy-winning artist’s second album, Skin, took the awards for Best Dance/Electronic Album and Best Dance Recording back in 2017, followed by his Hi This Is Flume Mixtape earning the Best Album award again in 2020 (despite the fact that it wasn’t technically an album). Taking his signature experimental sound to its pinnacle point of perfection, Flume’s thirteen track Palaces LP is the album that electronic music fans the world over have been waiting for.

From the offputting number, “Only Fans,” featuring the voice talents of Virgen Maria, to gorgeous solo originals from Streten, such as the ambient instrumental ballad “Jasper’s Song,” expansive tune “Love Light,” and the bouncy number “Go,” Flume has proven once again (and to no surprise) that he is a master of his craft.Īnother stand out is the LAUREL-assisted track, “I Can’t Tell,” which showcases her angelic vocals as well as Streten’s bold, lush-filled production style so evenly that the balance feels effortless. Now Palaces is joined by eight more fluorescent numbers that glisten with left-field bliss, tangy melodies, and scorching glitches. The Australian musical icon, born Harley Streten, has been teasing releases from the groundbreaking piece of work for months now- with MAY-A assisted lead single “ Say Nothing,” followed by “ ESCAPE” with QUIET BISON and KUČKA, then “Sirens” with Caroline Polachek, title track “Palaces” with Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn, and “Hollow” with Emma Louise. After six long years since his sophomore full-length release, Flume has bestowed the world with his third studio album in Palaces, out now on Transgressive Records.
