Streten proves that potential mass appeal need not come at the expense of creative flair or fresh ideas. The music box twinkle of Warm Thoughts, meanwhile, is such a seemingly simple idea but manages to carry a deep soul and emotion via its rolling melody and deftly layered vocals.īy turns sensitive, soulful and idiosyncratic, while maintaining an underlying pop aesthetic (and that is to its credit, not its detriment), Flume has created a refreshingly open and varied debut. This evolves into tribal chant-led ambience before the two seemingly opposing forces combine magnificently. That strong opening is backed up by the galloping melancholy pop of Insane and dubstep-paced bass workout More Than You Thought. The chopped-up, pitch-shifted vocals (a recurring theme), electro-stabs and gentle chords of Sinatra flows into the raw emotion of Holdin On and Left Alone, the latter featuring the considerable vocal talents of Chet Faker, and onto to the summery strains of Sleepless. The wonky funk of What You Need and the fizzing, almost distorted electronic hip hop of On Top prove that the 21-year-old is more than worthy of rubbing shoulders with LA’s finest Brainfeeder beat-manglers. But in contrast with more niche artists such as Flying Lotus or Slugabed – with whom there are clear parallels at times – Flume seems adept at combining leftfield sonic quirks with a hook-led accessibility. Streten has already enjoyed considerable success in his native Australia, where this album has been available since November 2012. It is robust and fault tolerant with tunable reliability mechanisms and many failover and recovery mechanisms.
It has a simple and flexible architecture based on streaming data flows. For years fans have begged to hear the entire version and thanks to Flume we finally have it. Welcome to Apache Flume Flume is a distributed, reliable, and available service for efficiently collecting, aggregating, and moving large amounts of log data. It’s the first time we heard a 90-second snippet of this unreleased tune that he released, in collaboration with Greenpeace Australia Pacific. That said, his eponymous debut as Flume should guarantee success across the board, both commercially and critically. Five years ago Flume was teasing some unreleased songs via social media and Youtube. The Sydney-based producer favours aural substance over fake gold-plated sheen. Not for Harley Streten the trance-lite builds and drops. Five tracks from a fifteen track album highlights how consistently great this album is.At a time when many of dance music’s big guns seem happy to overlook the past 20 years of the genre’s progression in a bid to pander to the hugely lucrative global EDM market, Flume’s emergence has been a somewhat welcome breath of creative fresh air. There are also two covered bridges along the.
But the Gorge is amazing and beautiful - a narrow channel of waterfalls and rapids between sheer cliff walls. There is a 20 ticket fee, which is steep for a hike at a state park. It’s an easy hike along graded gravel trails and boardwalks. I enjoyed every track a lot but the ones in particular that I felt stood out really well include Insane, Bring You Down, What You Need, Ezra and Sleepless. The Flume Gorge is a 2+ mile hike in Franconia Notch. All these characteristics amalgamate with each other to produce a fantastically fresh, unique and cohesive album with so many little elements throughout each track differing slightly to enable high replayability.
As a producer curated album, it succeeds on many fronts the unusual chord progressions, off-kilter instrumentation, pitch-bending as well as the heavily chopped and manipulated vocals paint a very vivid image of the sound Flume went for. The self-titled debut album by Flume released back in 2012 is a great, ambitious, electronic downtempo record which has plenty of positives to The self-titled debut album by Flume released back in 2012 is a great, ambitious, electronic downtempo record which has plenty of positives to take from.
