Instead, it’s when he realised that Flume was a sustainable full-time project. Harley’s most memorable moment of his 11-year-long career isn’t a release or award. “When I feel like I’ve got a strong body of work, I’ll just put it out.” “No, I just make stuff and it comes out when it comes out,” he says. Though Palaces comes 10 years after his debut, Harley isn’t celebrating this anniversary with a third album. Collectively these remixes have amassed hundreds of millions of streams on YouTube alone.īy the time his second album, Skin, dropped in 2016 with features from the likes of Vince Staples, Beck and AlunaGeorge, the scene had their ears locked on Flume’s frenzied productions. He was soon thrust into the limelight and gained further fame for his genre-warping remixes of Disclosure, Lorde, Ta-ku, Rustie and more. In 2012, Flume shook the electronic music scene with the huge, wonky synth parts, heavy beats and chopped vocals of his self-titled debut. Such an intricate, rich and abrasive sonic palette is not unusual for a Flume record. “There’s so much diversity on the record, you know? There’s a wide range of sounds and every song is quite different.” The paths that haven’t been trodden,” 30-year-old Harley Streten tells MusicTech when asked about his wild sound design.
