Australian EDM DJ Flume Announces U.S., Europe Tour Dates
One of the highlights of this year's South by Southwest festival was Harley Streten, the 21-year-old Australian producer who, under the name Flume, blends a love of soulful, Dilla-esque melodies with fractured beats that wouldn't be out of place at a Brainfeeder DJ set.
Live, though, Streten ratchets it up, turning bedroom compositions—he recorded last year's eponymous debut in his parents' house—into arena-worthy anthems. At the tiny Latitude 30 in Austin, Streten alternated between hands-in-the-air big-room club music and reflective, moody compositions. His tracks keep the grandiosity of EDM while forsaking the fist-pumping lunkheadedness of some of his peers.
The producer/DJ, who found his first music production program in a cereal box, announced a string of European and U.S. dates starting July 3 in London, stopping in Australia for the Splendour in the Grass festival and landing stateside in August and September. You should see him is what I'm saying.
