Flume

Flume is 24-year-old Australian producer Harley Streten. After releasing his debut in Australia in November 2012 on Future Classic, Flume experienced wildfire success winning 2013's Triple J Award for Australian Album of the Year and four ARIA Awards for Producer of the Year, Best Male, Breakthrough Artist and Best Dance Release. He has since gone on to tour extensively worldwide including headlining Paris' Rock En Seine for over 40,000 fans and sold-out, multi-night runs in New York, Los Angeles, London and Berlin.

Acclaimed Australian artist/producer Flume debuts a new track, "Never Be Like You" featuring Kai , the first single from his highly-anticipated Skin, set for release later this year on Mom + Pop.

"Never Be Like You" premieres as Annie Mac's "hottest record in the world" today on BBC's Radio 1 and is a collaborative effort with Canadian vocalist Kai-a rising artist in her own right who has written for Jessie J, Rihanna and Janelle Monae as well as featured on tracks by Diplo, Jack Ü and Childish Gambino.

"Kai and I were sending ideas back and forth online, then met up in NYC and went into the studio," Flume says of making the track. "We laid down some chords and started an idea but weren't feeling inspired. So we went out into the night for a few hours and when we returned, it all started to come together."

"The song comes from an extremely personal place," notes Kai. "It's about a moment in my own life when everything was going really well and my inner saboteur tried to do what she does best. At the end of the day we are all human and flawed and I felt like I needed to be as real and as candid as possible. I am absolutely in love with this song."

Already being touted as one of the most anticipated releases of 2016, Flume recently shared a teaser for Skin featuring snippets of many of the album's tracks. Since the 2012 release of his self-titled debut, Flume became one of the first artists to top 200 million Soundcloud plays and has reached more than 366 million streams on Spotify. The New York Times' Ben Sisario praises Flume's "darkly textured electronic songs with a soulful edge."

Flume will play select dates worldwide this spring and summer, coming Stateside for Coachella in April.
