FLUME AND JPEGMAFIA UNVEIL SEVEN MINUTE ANIMATED VIDEO FOR “TRACK 1”

April 24, 2025—Flume and JPEGMAFIA unveil a new, 7-minute video entitled “Track 1” today. Watch here.

The video, created by James Blagden, features a fantastic version of the studio session that birthed “Track 1,” in which each instrumental Flume plays alters the physical world—pulling JPEG inside out, making him a fly, turning him into an enormous clown—before the final beat takes them on an odyssey through time and space.

Longtime friends, having collaborated on “How To Build A Relationship” from Flume’s much-lauded 2019 mixtape Hi This Is Flume and “New Black History” from JPEG’s 2024 LP I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU, Flume and JPEGMAFIA got in the studio last year and laid down “Track 1” in one of their first takes.

“Track 1” is Grammy-winning artist, producer and songwriter Flume’s first release since 2023, when he dropped two back-to-back mixtapes of previously unreleased material from throughout his career. He’s spent the time since mostly out of public view.

Flume exploded into global consciousness in 2011 when his early release “Sleepless” captivated Australia and quickly spread around the world. Since then, he’s released three widely acclaimed studio albums, three cult favorite mixtapes and a handful of EPs, and won countless accolades including 13 Arias, two Triple J Hottest 100 #1s and a Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Album. He is a global headliner who has played lineup-topping sets at festivals worldwide including Coachella, Lollapalooza, Osheaga, Outside Lands, Japan’s Summersonic, Italy’s C2C and many more.

JPEGMAFIA (Barrington Hendricks, “Peggy”) is a multi-talented experimental rapper, producer, performer and leader in the experimental rap scene. He has released several critically acclaimed and prolific projects including Veteran (2018), All My Heroes Are Cornballs (2019), and (OFFLINE! 2021). He has sold-out headline tours globally and shared stages with artists including Playboi Carti, Gorillaz, Vince Staples, Ty Dolla $ign, Omar Apollo, Turnstile, Tinashe and Channel Tres, and made festival appearances at Coachella, Primavera Sound, Lollapalooza, Governors Ball, Listen Out and many more.

In 2023, he went independent and released SCARING THE HOES, a collaborative album with one of his closest contemporaries, Danny Brown, to widespread critical acclaim and chart success. In August 2024 he released I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU which peaked in the Billboard Top 200 independently and further expanded his fanbase.
