LISTEN: Flume Drops New Track ‘Say It’ Featuring Tove Lo
Get ready to turn your speakers up… Fresh from a mighty closing set at Coachella over the weekend, Flume has just dropped the second official single from his anticipated second album Skin called ‘Say It‘. The track featured the silky vocals of Swedish songstress Tove Lo. The travk was premiered overnight on Annie Mac’s BBC Radio 1 show.
The young producer wrote Skin in hotel rooms, aeroplanes, trains, taxis and tour vans all around the world – including locations as far-flung as LAX airport, a shack on the west coast of Mexico, a log cabin in rural Tasmania, a bus rattling towards Vegas, as well as studios in LA, New York and his hometown of Sydney.

On ‘Say It’ in particular, Streten says:
“It was a really fun one to make. I went and saw Kanye’s show at the Hollywood Bowl last year and after the show a few of us were at a bar and a Tove Lo song was playing.
I shazamed the song. I found out she was in LA – two days later we were in the studio together and we wrote ‘Say It.”
Tove Lo said of the track: “I was in LA for a few days between tours when Harley reached out to me about writing together. I’ve been a big fan of him for a long time so I pretty much ran over to his studio. He played me some ideas which one of them was the track for Say it, and I just started vibing melodies over it and we put together something we loved. It was so relaxed and fun and kind of a new way for me to write. Very excited for people to hear it!”
Meanwhile, ‘Never Be Like You‘ is smashing it on the charts, reaching #1 on the ARIA charts pushing it to double platinum status. In the US it’s reached #1 on the US iTunes electronic chart, charting in US Top 40 radio, is currently at 76 on the US Billboard charts and has been Shazamed over 1 million times. Flume’s album Skin is out May 27, and available for pre-order now. He headlines Splendour in the Grass this July.
