In a move that’s set Instagram and music forums buzzing, Flume has unfollowed nearly half of the accounts he once followed — including major names like Skrillex, Toro Y Moi, Four Tet, and even previous collaborators. While at first glance this mass unfollow spree seems random, fans are speculating it’s part of a calculated move hinting at a new era — possibly even a new album.
Archiving posts and trimming down followers is a tactic many artists use to spark curiosity and signal transformation. It echoes moves made by artists before major announcements, and Flume’s own history — like going blonde before his last album cycle — adds fuel to the theory. Some fans also noted the possible removal of his Instagram highlights, suggesting a full brand refresh is underway.
Others argue it could simply be a digital declutter, as Flume was following thousands. Still, it’s hard to ignore the timing. Fans are hopeful for new collaborations too — with dream matchups like G Jones, Tipper, or Resonant Language leading the wishlist.
Whether it’s intentional hype-building or just social media housekeeping, one thing’s clear: the world is watching closely. And if this signals a new Flume chapter, we’re ready.
