The announcement arrives with the project\u2019s lead single, \u201cEasy Goodbye,\u201d a shimmering detour through emotional wreckage. The track fuses his signature glitch-and-surge production with Louise\u2019s breathy, delicate vocals. It\u2019s a parting song in every sense, with warbling synths and fractured textures swirling around melancholic lyrics.<\/p>\n

Flume and Louise previously teamed up for “Hollow” on Palaces<\/em>, but this time it\u2019s more personal. As Billboard<\/a><\/em> notes, Louise, who grew up undiagnosed as neurodivergent, refers to\u00a0DUMB <\/em>as\u00a0an act of reclamation. “At first, naming the album DUMB felt irreverent and freeing, but later I realized how deeply it connected to my own fear of being seen as stupid and unworthy,” she said. \u201cThis album is me reclaiming that word, letting go of shame, and promising myself I\u2019ll never abandon my voice again.”<\/p>\n

You can listen to “Easy Goodbye” ahead of the full album release on streaming services here<\/a>\u00a0before the album is released on August 22nd, 2025.<\/p>\n
