A good life is full of fun memories and experiences, money is only part of it.

I've never bitched about lack of money in edm, I like to think I have a practical common sense attitude that informs me 99% of authors, painters and participants in any other artistic scene will also see no money.

Nothing to bitch about at all in my book, Humans can only cope with buying from so many authors, film makers, edm producers.

I've always said most bands will be buskers no matter how tallented. I completely disagree that this law of nature is in any sense unjust. No one is entitled to make money from art and there's a lot of luck and perseverance involved. It's like when people bemoan thier poor mate who's a fantastic musician, not getting recognition, forgetting the world is full of fantastic musicians, often all doing broadly the same thing.

Raphie is like the person in any hobby club that actualy gets stuff done.

I don't think anyone is expecting more than 30 cents.
Lets call it the 'The loosers albumn'. Maybe John 00 Flemming should promo it.

I expect to make no less than one million dollars from this compilation alone, not to mention the boost in t-shirt sales that it will surely generate.

to highlight how the people that are dead set that there is no money do stupid shit like this. The money situation irks you to the point you have to post about it. Now perhaps you would be saying different if you had some common sense. I mean you are clueless so consider it some free advice. The money is there. It isn't in compilations, it isn't in soundsets, it isn't in sound libraries.

Basically you made a post concerning a really nasty rash on your dick yet still masterbate 20 times a day. Stop being stupid and you might make some money. I provided one stupid thing you do. Stop doing it. It is idiotic. It makes you look stupid. It makes you look completely out of touch. Buy my compilation of nobody producers for 30 bucks. I mean this is ridiculous when anyone can get in 2 clicks compilations by name djs with name producers for free. It makes you look really really dumb.

The compilation you plan to sell to nobody, give it for free. You will probably end up spending less money and since you aren't making money, well you are technically ahead financially.

You'd have a point if this compilation was an honest attempt to make money, which it very clearly isn't. None of us are going to make anything, it's not going to be successful, and none of us give a shit. At least not as much as you.

He never said he'd sell it for $30, and he never said he'd spend $3,000 on making it. This is a small project that nobody is expecting to succeed, so I have to wonder why you think we're all idiots when you're the only one who thinks we have any expectations.

You're really starting to just look for fights lately.

he has done it before . He whines about money. I'm giving him some and others some free advice. If it isn't about money, why sell it in the first place. Offer it up as a free download. 30 free listeners is better than 0 paying listeners.

he was charging 30$ for a compilation which he referenced in that thread so i'm just going by what he has posted and his previous patterns. Not about money ? And he has done a bunch so i think somewhere in that pea sized brain was a delusion that there is money. Then when there isn't, he blames the system.

it seems the price is now 11$. I remember it being 26 when he first posted it. But ya, 11$ for a mix compilation ?

I seriously cant see a reason why you even come to this forum.

then why not enlighten us on how to make money loony tunes

science advances by disproving so in that same pursuit of knowledge, consider it worthwhile to know what doesn't work.

Basically, use Raphie as a what not to do example.
