Flume puts picky hearts at ease by rolling out a buffet of a concert experience on the Palaces Tour. It’s often said you eat with your eyes first—Flume introduces sound sensory to the mix. There are flavors for every guest at the Palaces tour: nostalgic or romantic soundbites, raw or complex servings. There is something to satiate you no matter your tastes. In Vancouver, A.G. Cook, QUIET BISON and Prospa whipped up appetizers before Flume stepped up to the turntables. Flume transformed the PNE Amphitheatre into a racetrack, a psychedelic forest, a horror movie and everything else his heart desired. Flume, appropriately wearing a Motocross suit, revved the crowd up with a high-octane, race-themed intro before diving deep into the recipe bag. He immediately set the tone for a fun-fille...
Just weeks after the bombshell release of her collaboration with Flume and QUIET BISON, “ESCAPE,” KUČKA is back for more—this time with her first solo release of the year. And for KUČKA, this one has been years in the making. In fact, it wasn’t until several months ago that “Messed Up” was dusted off and completed after vexing the artist for years. The final “Messed Up” tantalizingly pairs an eerie, flute-like melody with KUČKA’s signature cosmic vocal tone, swirling amongst the colorful chaos of its synths. Masterfully it brings together U.K. garage and hyperpop, building on dreamy sound design and energized breaks to maximize the song’s disorienting, mesmeric effect. “I’m under a spell that’s hard to b...

Laura Jane Lowther is a creative pioneer living her truth and inviting everyone to join the party. The beauty of KUČKA’s artistry lies in the power of contemporary exploration in duality, emotions, and the nuances of self. An introspective yet, vibrant and upbeat approach, the globally raised producer/songwriter, bares her being within her sensory satisfying LP, Wrestling. She has a very distinct sonic palette that bridges experimental elements with a percussive/bass heavy rhythm, overlaid with a futuristic etherealness that all combine to create a complete, energetically balanced signature sound. Within the entire exploration, the composition of the entire project does not fail to showcase her ability to tell a cohesive story. The proof is seen within the way she vividly translates the fu...
All great things take time, and KUČKA‘s debut album, Wrestling, is no different. First announced nearly two years ago, Wrestling sees years of the Australian artist’s work come together in an intimate, 12-track arrangement of spellbinding soundscapes and masterful lyricism. Released April 30th via LuckyMe, the project also follows KUČKA’s three-year hiatus from solo work, which concluded in 2019 with the release of Wrestling‘s lead single, the Flume-assisted “Drowning.” Built around haunting vocals and quirky, bouncy chords, KUČKA kicks the door down with Wrestling and ushers us into her world. Her lyrics are raw and blissfully simple, telling a tale of love and acceptance as old as time. Still, her unique twist...
After the crushing loss of electronic music icon SOPHIE last month, artists from all ends of the music community united together to mourn collectively and share their favorite moments with the late artist. Her far-reaching influence can be attributed to her unique manipulation of sonics and her persistent sense of self, inspiring young creators—especially those holding LGBTQ+ identities—to feel comfortable in their own skin and pursue their dreams. SOPHIE’s work received large-scale recognition in 2018, when her debut album, Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides, earned a Grammy nomination for Best Dance/Electronic Album. At the same time, she was also a prolific producer, assisting a plethora of iconic names in the studio over the years. To celeb...
Experimental pop-electronica artist KUČKA has hit a sweet spot with her latest single, “Ascension.” Out today via LuckyMe, the track is a seamless blend of electronic synths, driving percussion rhythms, and silky vocals. The track tells its story through both its melodic progression and its companion music video, taking us through a dynamic dream world of hollowed-out sonics and cleverly arranged vocal chops. KUČKA’s clear, airy vocals are on full display, stealing the show with their lilting cadence and raw expressiveness. “’Ascension’ is about the continual growth that we are all undertaking at every stage of our life,” KUČKA said in a press release. “We’re constantly faced with new challenges, whether we realize it or not, and it...
