With an incipient career and only one released album, many artists are coming out in the desired show business universe:
those who can get a high position in charts and appear on radios and music video channels without leaving behind their own —more or less— avant-garde aesthetic. Short careers but with a big future.
Flowmi picked five artists to watch, discover and, maybe, become a fan of.

The success of social networks goes out onto the streets thanks to the tech clothing designed by W-41. How?

Argentine producers, DJs and electronic bands please pay attention! Creamfields Buenos Aires and MySpace are looking for new talents and offer you the opportunity of playing at the next edition of the festival. Upload a track or a set to your MySpace profile, sign up for the contest and get ready to play at the best gig in your career.

To celebrate the freedom enjoyed by dance culture during the acid house revolution by the end of the 80's, clubbers didn't pick the best tracks of the genre: they preferred to celebrate its 20th anniversary with a series of flash mobs in different cities around the world. Organized via Facebook and MySpace, the first one was held on August 22 in London.
