5000 even seems like a lot for any rephlex release, maybe like 1000 or so. aphex\squarepusher still do not sell that many albums anyways. aphex has sold more than squarepusher too, squarepusher may be one of the bigger ones on warp but still barely any people have heard of him and most havent heard of aphex.

i think that drukqs wasnt sold in more than 10 copies here in slovenia
i frequent music shops a lot and i only found it in two shops-one of those because they order it because of me :)
anyway i think idm artists just arent promoted enough-not many ppl here knows about idm at all
but electronic music in general is pretty well accepted-lots of biggest world star dj's are coming to play here
imo warp should really do a much better job promoting their musicians

Sorry to drag this out but i'm still a bit confused as to how a living can be made from selling 5000 copies of a record, appearing infrequently and doing a few odd music related jobs.
Not to mock of course. If i could, i would!
So what ads you done j-hok, any we might know or recognise? Any links?

commericals pay a fuck load
my bass teacher in highschool...
he worked for 3 months on an album playing bass.
he then worked for 3 days for a 30 second commerical for tv... and made much much more then what he made playing bass for 3 months in a studio, on an album.

If there's a bunch of people that live in one apartment like the schematic crew (I think) I guess they could pull it off. That would be the great life. Everyone only has to work 20 hours a week to pay the rent probably. Too bad I have no friends and am agoraphobic.
