Gaylord Sweetwood Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Really dissapointed to see this happening. Some of the best 808/303 programming ever recorded was probably done on those two. I definitely think the limitations of their earlier synths had a positive impact in their productions.

Guest RadarJammer Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 i can't stand having a bunch of shit laying around I don't use. i'd rather throw an 808 away than keep it in storage in the hope that i might use it again. lingering material possessions cloud the mind.

LimpyLoo Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 (edited) from that interview posted above... What has been the hardest part of your artistic career?Financial pressure is by far the most difficult aspect of being an artist. There's really not much money to be made and this is a constant struggle. Consumers see the cost of music and think that artists must be wealthy but such a small percentage of this income makes it back to the creators. Most is taken by labels and distributers. In the last 10 years or so we've also been hit by the free distribution of our work. Our releases are available widely free on the day of release and this has had a huge impact. Our fan base also tends to be quite technically aware and so we started to feel the effect earlier than artists working in other areas of music.

goDel Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Edit: on a more serious note, it's kinda odd that a band like Plaid has to work ( release music) to be able to come by financially, while BOC .... Doesn't appear to have that need at all. Makes me wonder whether having your tracks used in commercials of global corporations generates lots of money. That, or the Boc commune doesn't need lots of money. You might think that if Plaid were having troubles, the same would hold for BOC. At least, I'm assuming both are big enough to compare them, right?
