Flume has released a rather spectacular new video for “Some Minds” which is a collaborative effort with Miike Snow’s lead vocalist Andrew Wyatt. The clip features somewhat mysterious inside and outside the iconic Sydney Opera House at night shot over the course of one evening with director Clemens Habicht and Australian Ballet member Callum Linnane.
According to the press release Flume had the following to say about the track and video:
I started the instrumental at my apartment in Manly, Sydney—first working with the drums and arrangement, then building chords around it. I did some vocal bits as sketches before meeting up with Andrew Wyatt from Miike Snow in his studio in New York City. Andrew was writing things in his own head while I played the song over and over then after about an hour he jumped up and said ‘stop’ and launched into singing this amazing chorus melody. He was singing in jibberish into his phone, then fleshed out the lyrics of the chorus and verses. I finished it off with the crazy ending further down the line, a few months later.
Watch the clip above now and catch Flume on tour this summer at one of the dates below.
