FLUME — Palaces LP 2x12"

Wildly acclaimed Grammy-winning artist Flume returns with anew album, ‘Palaces’, on Transgressive Records.‘Palaces’ began to take shape when Flume returned to hisnative Australia after struggling to write music in Los Angeles atthe beginning of the pandemic. Settling in a coastal town in theNorthern Rivers region of New South Wales, Flume quicklyfound the inspiration he needed through reconnecting with thenature around him - the rolling hills, walking around barefoot,the green colour the sky turns before a big storm, growing andeating his own vegetables, the smell of rain.He and his neighbour and long-time collaborator, the visualartist Jonathan Zawada, became fascinated by the local wildlife,in particular the birds, collecting field recordings that ultimatelyworked their way in to the album. As Flume continued to forge astrong connection to his surroundings, the album he wanted tomake started to form, eventually adopting a title to properlyhighlight the luxury and magic of the natural world.‘Palaces’ is his most confident, mature and uncompromisingwork to date, a true testament to nurturing the relationships thatmake us whole and bring us peace.The album features a host of vocalists and collaborators, itscast list spanning new and household names from around theworld - breakout US star Caroline Polachek, British polymathicon Damon Albarn, Spain’s Vergen Maria, France’s Oklou andfellow Australian Kučka, who returns following her standout turnon ‘Skin’.Deluxe CD including two exclusive bonus tracks in 6-panelheavyweight board digipack with tube pocket and 8-pagebooklet.
