.
Palaces, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart the week of its release, continues to receive critical acclaim:
“Palaces picks up where his 2016 record Skin left off, finding the Los Angeles-via-Sydney superproducer turning stadium-sized EDM into something off-kilter and genuinely weird…it’s also got one of the year’s best feature slates.”
– The FADER
“Australia’s leading electronic experimentalist and alt-pop crusader is back with another expressive, expansive and exotic collection of sounds…a singular sonic statement that blends aggressive synth edges with lovable hooks.”
– Billboard
“Some of Flume’s most intricate and mindbendingly complex beats to-date…”
– PAPER
“A clear totalisation of Flume’s talent-yielding wheelhouse thus far…it’s highly unlikely that Streten’s influence will diminish anytime soon.”
– DJ Mag
“Euphoric dance music, borrowing from rave and electropop while putting his stamp on proceedings with deep bass, frenetic beats and dramatic crescendos”
– Sydney Morning Herald
“Harley Streten‘s first proper studio album in six years reaffirms why the powerhouse producer is one of our most in-demand exports…’Palaces’ sees Streten following his intuition with more confidence than ever before”
– NME Australia

Flume unveils new versions of tracks from his much lauded new album Palaces from Mount Kimbie, Logic1000, Prospa and Otik, today. Opening the package, U.K.outfit Mount Kimbie make the album’s title track their own with their first official remix in eight years. Composed in two parts, the first half bounces the original’s slowly rising cinematics into a stuttering pulse with Detroit rapper Zeloopers contributing original verses. Damon Albarn’s vocal enters midway through, floating over a euphoric change-up that captures both the melancholy and optimism at the heart of ‘Palaces’.
Prospa ramp up the tempo of album release single ‘Highest Building’ into a decidedly U.K. dancefloor piece with Oklou’s haunting vocals placed carefully throughout. Flume’s collaboration with Emma Louise, ‘Hollow’, is reinterpreted by Logic1000 into a low-slung dancefloor slow burner. Otik closes out the package with a fiery drum ‘n’ bass take on album cut ‘Go’.

More about PALACES AND FLUME:
Palaces began to take shape when Flume returned to his native Australia after struggling to write music in Los Angeles at the beginning of the pandemic. He settled in a coastal town in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales and soon found inspiration through reconnecting with the nature around him—the rolling hills, walking around barefoot, the green color the sky turns before a big storm, growing and eating his own vegetables, the smell of rain. He and his neighbor and longtime collaborator, the visual artist Jonathan Zawada, became fascinated by the local wildlife, in particular the birds, collecting field recordings that ended up on the album. With a title that properly highlights the luxury and magic of the natural world, Palaces is Flume’s most confident, mature and uncompromising work to date, a true testament to nurturing the relationships that make us whole and bring us peace.
Flume (born Harley Streten) rose to prominence as a teenager with his self-titled 2012 debut album, which established him as an international sensation. His 2016 LP Skin achieved Platinum certification around the world and earned him his first Grammy Award for Best/Dance Electronic Album. He went on to sell over 300,000 tickets globally across a sold out, 59-date world tour that year, with headlining sets at Reading & Leeds Festivals and the famed Alexandra Palace. In 2019, Flume’s acclaimed Hi This Is Flume mixtape earned him his second Best Dance/Electronic Album Grammy nomination and he played lineup topping sets at festivals worldwide including Lollapalooza, Osheaga, Outside Lands, Japan’s Summersonic, Italy’s C2C and more.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
