B1000 Posted August 19, 2018 Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 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.
