Rhinestone - Flume

Flume: Proving that creativity doesn't expire on ‘Things Don't Always Go The Way You Plan’

Flume has been a dominant figure in the electronic music scene since the release of his self-titled debut album back in 2012. Over the past decade, the Australian producer has explored a range of sounds and styles, and his music has continued to push boundaries and inspire new generations of electronic music artists.

Flume surprised us by releasing a mixtape of previously unreleased tracks from the last ten years. Titled ‘Things Don't Always Go The Way You Plan’, the mixtape is a celebration of the producer's journey over the past decade, and showcases his creative experimentation and innovative production style.

One of the standout tracks on the mixtape is "Rhinestone". With its pulsing bassline and atmospheric synths, the track is a testament to Flume's ability to craft immersive soundscapes that transport listeners to another world. It's the kind of track that you can get lost in, with its hypnotic beat and dreamy melodies.

What's particularly interesting about the mixtape is that it's a glimpse into Flume's creative process over the years. The track titles are the original file names, and the aesthetic is an old version of macOS, giving the mixtape a nostalgic feel that harks back to a time when Flume was first starting out. It's a reminder that creativity doesn't expire, and that even the earliest ideas can inspire something great.

As we look back over the last decade of music, it's clear that Flume has been one of the most influential and groundbreaking artists in the electronic music scene. With his mixtape of unreleased tracks, he's given fans a chance to revisit his journey and discover new gems that they might have missed the first time around. "Rhinestone" is just one example of the incredible music that Flume has produced over the years, and it's a testament to his enduring creative vision and innovative spirit.
