GO THE WAY YOU PLAN’

Surprise record featuring
unheard music from
throughout Flume’s career

Electronic music titan Flume has unveiled a surprise package of unheard music from the last decade. Things Don’t Always Go The Way You Plan is out now – Listen here. The release marks ten years since Flume’s self-titled debut, 2012’s Flume launched the now-iconic producer and his signature sound into the stratosphere, with billions of streams worldwide and Platinum sales in multiple countries. 

The music for the release was culled from laptops and hard drives stashed away while Flume worked on other projects. Fans displayed significant nostalgia around the ten-year anniversary of his debut album with mounting requests to share more music after the release of the early demo, ‘Slugger 1.4 [2014 Export.WAV],’ in late 2022. Things Don’t Always Go The Way You Plan may be the response.

Things Don’t Always Go The Way You Plan features tracks with Injury Reserve, Panda Bear and Isabella Manfredi—with whom Flume previously collaborated on ‘The Greatest View’ and ‘TRUST.’ The collection is an immersive dive into the various eras of Flume with a combination of experimental and vocal material. There’s uplifting cinematic moments, ‘Close 1.2 [2016 Export Wav],’ wonky mixtape era beats, ‘Nice 2 Know U 1.5.3 [2020 Export Wav],’ a return to hip hop, ‘Counting Sheep (V2) [2018 Export Wav],’ and classic song driven material, ‘Rhinestone 1.7.2 [2018 Export Wav].’ It’s all very Flume and consistent with the eclecticism that has earned him his unique lane in electronic music and popular culture.

In May 2022, Flume shared his third studio album, Palaces (featuring ‘Say Nothing’ with MAY-A, which recently came in #1 on Triple J’s annual Hottest 100 countdown (only one other artist has ever earned the top spot twice), and ‘Sirens’ with Caroline Polachek) to international praise, six ARIA Award nominations and a J Award nomination for Australian Album of the Year. Flume spent the majority of 2022 touring internationally, including a celebrated main stage slot at Coachella and a run of headline dates throughout Australia.
