Following the release of the ethereal “Beechworth Cascades,” rising Australian producer, DJ, and artist PARIS returns with “Flourish,” the second single from her highly anticipated debut album ‘Labyrinth,’ arriving August 29 via Lane 8’s imprint This Never Happened.
A progressive, emotionally resonant club track, “Flourish” highlights PARIS’s evolving sonic landscape. With a stripped-back yet meticulously layered sound, the track weaves together percussive grooves and melodic intricacies. Its staccato motif gradually blossoms into a rich, textured arrangement—an embodiment of growth, contrast, and movement.
While “Beechworth Cascades” introduced Labyrinth with introspective, nature-inspired soundscapes, “Flourish” marks a pivot into more progressive territory. Driven by a dancer’s instinct and a producer’s ear for atmosphere, the track captures the tension and release that defines PARIS’s signature style.
“This one felt like a moment of clarity — simple, playful, but also patient,” says PARIS. “It’s one of those tracks that just grew into itself.”
“Flourish” arrives on the heels of PARIS’s successful Into the Labyrinth tour—a trilogy of four-hour headline sets in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, where she unveiled the album’s cinematic world in full. She’ll continue that momentum globally this year, with upcoming support slots for Lane 8 and Sultan + Shepard in South Africa, before heading to the United States in November for This Never Happened Presents shows in Chicago and Denver. A full Labyrinth world tour is expected to be announced soon.
Out August 29, ‘Labyrinth’ represents over a decade of artistic growth and sonic refinement for PARIS—a bold debut from one of Australia’s most compelling new voices in electronic music. With “Flourish,” she invites listeners deeper into her evolving world—where clarity meets curiosity on the dancefloor.
