Dance act Darude, number 3 this week with "Sandstorm", has become the first MP3.com artist to hit the UK Singles Charts.
Darude, otherwise known as Finnish 24-year-old Ville Virtanen, first gained recognition when he posted up a 60-second clip of "Sandstorm" on the Internet. The track reached number one in the MP3.com dance charts and hung around the top for a couple of months.
