I know it's not really important, but I've always been
quite curious as to how many cds artists like Venetian
Snares or Richard Devine or Autechre or whoever sell.

Didn't Mike Paradinas share some information about this in
an interview? Can't find it, though...

hundreds of thousands. vsnares especially..just imagine..if
he sells 100 copies of every album that adds up to, what,
100.000 a month!

Some sales figures have been listed before. I seem to
remember that big albums like Geogaddi sold in the tens of
thousands range, whereas most "normal" electronic/idm
related albums tend to sell in the thousands (at best).

I think roni size has the record of sales for electronic
music with something near to 300000 (three hundred thousand)
records sold

I think that was the album that established Rephlex's now
legendary practice of delaying releases for years at a time
for no apparent reason beyond they can't quite be bothered,
though perversly if it's a really shit record it seems to
come out dead quick.

Global Goon told us that he sold 7000 copies of vatican
Nitez. And I read an interview that Come To Daddy sold
700,000. And in the press-note for Geogaddi it was informed
that Music has the right to children sold over 100.000.
That's all I know

They managed to shift all the copies then?

BTW I know it's taking forever, but I was working on that
thing for you again last night. I hate to make it sound like
some master-crafted wonderful thing, because it's not, but I
am taking a fair bit of time over it.

In other news, can I strongly recommend Roland Sands' bikes
as being of interest to you. He basically makes sportsbikes
out of cruisers, with olde worlde styling, a bit like a
vintage buell equivalent (but with gorgeous paint). I also
think you would really like the cover bike on this month's
Back Street Heroes (BSH) It's an updated Vincent and looks a
bit like your missus' push bike. It's possibly the nicest
(from a purely aesthetic POV) bike I've seen.
