CloudSourcing: Flume
For an artist who is only 20, Sydney beatmaster Flume is wise beyond his years. Finding music production software in a box of cereal led him on nonstop musical journey that's culminated in the release of his soulful, beat-laden self-titled debut and a jaunt to the U.S. In Australia, Flume is receiving huge support from radio, and has landed a #1 single on iTunes. He's sold-out two national Australian tours, toured with The xx, played to huge crowds at several prestigious Australian festivals, and even performed at the Sydney Opera House. With a penchant for deep, dark grooves peppered with lush, chopped up vocals, Flume is an artist to keep your eye on. Here he shares five of his favorite artists on SoundCloud.
