About

In 2012, a young beatmaker called Flume burst on to the scene and single-handedly changed the face of Australian dance music and its possibilities.

The then 20-year old had just one single (‘Sleepless’) and one remix (Hermitude’s Hyperparadise) to his name. The buzz was growing, thanks in part to a standout afternoon performance at Splendour in the Grass, but his audience was confined largely to fans of underground electronica propagated by rising tastemaker label Future Classic.

Flume's debut self-titled album was released in 2012 by Future Classic in Australia, and Mom + Pop in the US. The album features guest vocal contributions by Chet Faker, Moon Holiday, George Maple and Puerto Rican LA-based MC T.Shirt.

 "Flume got his first taste for producing at age 13 from the most unlikely of places - a music production program he found in a cereal box. Taking a no-holds-barred attitude to music creation, Flume takes inspiration from a wide variety of sources and scenes distilling his sound into a melodic bass heavy style that is uniquely his own.

Flume is one of the first generation that doesn’t know life before the Internet and perhaps this explains his global appeal. Praise has come from the likes of Clash, i-D, The Line of Best Fit, and FACT Mag in the UK, while across the pond, The Fader, XLR8R and no less than The New York Times have all marked Flume as one to watch. He is equally popular in his native Australia, with across the board support from national alternative broadcaster Triple J and taste-making community stations and blogs." – Mom + Pop

“The Australian beatmaker Flume mixes woozy Dilla-fied production, R&B-inspired bedside intimacy, and guest vocals on his promising debut.” – Pitchfork
