Flume Debuts “Sirens” ft: Caroline Polachek
Flume, has shared the Daniel Askill-directed (Sia, Lady Gaga, Paul McCartney etc.), Dion Lee-styled video for “Sirens.” The multi-artist’s new single features Caroline Polachek. “Sirens” was, co-written and co-produced by Danny L Harle, is taken from Flume’s forthcoming new LP, Palaces, out May 20, 2022 via Future Classic and Transgressive.
“This amazing track by Flume and Caroline inspired us to create a film that hovers at the intersection of nature and technology, transcendence and materiality,” Askill says. “We were lucky enough to be supported by an incredible team of collaborators including Jonathan Zawada, Dion Lee, Khalid Mohtaseb, Serial Pictures and Glenn Stewart at Collider who designed and built the incredible environment.
”Palaces began to take shape when Flume returned to his native Australia after struggling to write music in Los Angeles at the beginning of the pandemic. He settled in a coastal town in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales and soon found inspiration through reconnecting with the nature around him—the rolling hills, walking around barefoot, the green color the sky turns before a big storm, growing and eating his own vegetables, the smell of rain. He and his neighbor and longtime collaborator, the visual artist Jonathan Zawada, became fascinated by the local wildlife, in particular the birds, collecting field recordings that ended up on the album”.
