Flume - Holdin On

I've been following Flume for quite some time now and played many tracks of his on the show. This is one of the best, tapping into the Garage sounds that are ever popular at the moment mixed with hip hop break beats, the Sydney based producer has create something pretty special here. This cross over makes this type of track unique, a head nodding number is what it is.

Real name Harley Streten is signed to the brilliant Australian label Future Classic, some tracks on his are more like M83 some are just plain big. I recommend looking up both's back catalogues if you like this. A few on my favourite of Flume's remixes and originals after the jump....

And a link to his competition that he just ran, on Beatport, to remix one of his latest tracks...

SHAX TRAX Remix Competition

Everyone loves a remix competition, well they should, its' gives you a chance to hear the different styles and different interpretations that each artist has on music and what they think should be done with it. It is also a good indicator for people that want to make their own music as they are able to hear other artists techniques and how thy go about creating a remix.

The current remix competition that is running that came to our attention is the SHAX TRAX Remix. Here is our favourite entry at the moment by Stereocool.
