May 27, 2016While many ones thought it would be just a basic EDM album, 'Skin' comes and surprises everyone with futuristic touches, distorted and extremely well placed noise. By far, this one of the best EDM albums of the year - along with 99, 9% by Kaytranada.

May 27, 2016An amazing electronic album. It is authentically truly well produced, with great compositions and, by far, much more futuristic than the last album. Flume is the best!
-
May 27, 2016Flume never disappoints, that's a fact! 'Never Been Like You' was just a sample of how he had evolved as an artist and producer, and now, with the whole album released, you can see that in each track. I really love it and and point to buy YES! Buy it on iTunes and on Amazon!!

May 27, 2016This guy is the phenomenon of electronic music. Where he gets these ideas from is mind-blowing, and it really shows in the album. An absolute must buy, this is going to be a modern classic in electronic music, as Zane Lowe said when he premiered one of the songs. Spectacular album.

Nov 21, 2019Get this and Skin Companion and all album Flume right now. This is the best underrated artist of this generation. Top quality songs experimental, wonky and hip hop. And next to flume listen to Hudson Mohawke

May 30, 2016Flume is at the top of his game with his sophomore release. He doesn't strive to produce club-banging hits like all the rest of EDM/electronic artists are doing now and days. He's actually interested in making music that has depth. Great contributions by Vic Mensa, Tove Lo and Vince Staples.
HIGHLIGHTS: Helix, Lose it and Say It. -
Jun 21, 2016Wow, what a listen. Filled to the brim with hits, Wall **** Lose It, Helix, Take A Chance stand out the most to me. All songs pretty solid, although some do seem to get lost amongst some of the more hard-hitting songs. Genre-flipping btwn hip-hop, trip-hop, and just good ol' glitchy electronic noise.

May 28, 2016Realmente es un álbum sorprendente para la escena de la música electrónica del momento, no es solo una producción electrónica mas y eso se puede sentir en cada tema con esos toques futuristas e innovadores, excelentes vocales, un trabajo con mas potencial que su álbum debut.
sin lugar a duda Flume es uno de los mayores exponentes de música electrónica. -

May 30, 2016This album is a really great album considering that dance/electronic albums are payed much attention to or bought that much. But this album is very unique in sound and has a lot of great special guests such as Vic Mensa, AlunaGeorge and Tove Lo. Favorite songs of the album are Say It and Lose It! Stream on Spotify!

Aug 6, 2016Flume is a very good album with very good productions and very good artists, although there were moments on this album when it got kind of heavy. My favorite song may be Like Water. Recommended.

May 31, 2016This album suffers from the issues that plague most EDM albums nowadays. In short, it is a mostly great effort that is bogged down by being much too long, with too many sub-par filler tracks and uninspired vocal performances scattered in amongst some truly fantastic and surprisingly experimental music.

May 27, 2016I expected more to be honest, sound so cheap and annoying. I'm so disappointed. Don't buy it, it's not worthy. There's not even a decent song in the album, this is completely trash.

Sep 30, 2016Skin goes Technicolor and bigger, effectively standing on the shoulders of Disclosure and giant stars including Skrillex, Diplo, and album collaborator/reinventor Beck.
-
Jun 17, 2016Restless versatility is all over the LP, generating the emotional crests and sensory overload a festival crowd demands, but with a nuance that'll make it work even if you aren't shirtless in the desert.

Jun 13, 2016Skin is brilliant across the board.
