Lorde, legally known as Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor, has a voice perfect for an EDM twist, and for his remix efforts Flume did not disappoint. In many ways, Flume’s Tennis Court remix was crucial in the Australian producer’s international rise - and, to a degree, Lorde’s rise too - and the fact that it’s not officially available on Spotify is a near-war crime worthy of the Governer General’s attention. Flume puts an awesome spin on Lorde’s already stellar track Tennis Court, blending her lyrics with a darker beat that matches perfectly with her haunting voice.

It’s a national travesty that’s no doubt tied up to label deals and songwriting/production rights, but a national travesty nonetheless. How can we enjoy this new remix of Flume’s when the best one he’s done - the infamous flip of Lorde’s Tennis Court - won’t randomly come on when you shuffle your Spotify / Apple Music playlists, on the basis of it not being available on streaming? How is it that after six years of being thumped at every house party / club night there is on the planet, it won’t be able to come on at a house party, without having someone awkwardly load up YouTube and sit through an advert or two for it to happen? How is it that one of the best electronic songs ever created, is absent from the millions of playlists that think they feature the best electronic songs ever? It’s everything you could’ve dreamed of - a Hottest 100 winning remix in the making - that sees the old classic modernised and switched up with that signature Flume glitch, all in a bit of fun that keeps us going. The 10th anniversary of Flume, the debut album from the Australian. It was a very Tobias Funke-esque moment that had many questioning whether: 1) it was a legit remix on the way and 2) whether Flume had finally joined the Blue Man Group.Īs it turns out, the remix eventually did get finished and it’s just been made available on streaming services today, some two months following the initial tease. Flume’s Tennis Court remix is finally coming to streaming platforms. Around two months ago, Flume posted an Instagram that had him blasting a remix of Eiffel 65’s infamous Blue song (yes, the “ I'm blue da ba dee da ba daa” song), while coated in blue paint. 24 April 2014 1 Song, 6 minutes 2014 Universal Music New Zealand Limited.
