How do ex-Rephlex musicians survive?

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

How do old Rephlex artists like Bogdan Raczynski / Cylob / Wisp / DMX Krew survive post-Rephlex? I am assuming that even when they released music on Rephlex they barely scraped by money-wise.

 

Then on top of that, they have had to manage through the financial crisis in 2008, never had a large fanbase in general, and probably make barely £100-200 per bandcamp release these days. And tours wouldn't pay these people anything since commercially they are unknown to the majority of people today.

 

Basically, I don't see any of these chaps on LinkedIn or working down my local Tescos. How do they survive?

 

Share your thoughts.

Stoked to watch OA II. The movement thing never bothered me, anyone familiar with Druidic studies will recognize the importance of movement to get to higher planes.

 

DMX is actually the same guy as the other DMX, he's in jail now so he gets room and board on the government dime

 

The other ones never existed but were all aphex pseudonyms

I assume they're all hunter-gatherers.

Some songs I made with my fingers and electronics. In the process of making some more. Hopefully.
