The thing is peple left 8bc full of anger. Those who didn't see it becoming a pool of hate don't understand comments like akira's, which is fine. But take that into consideration, it's not silly, it's just like that ex girlfriend you broke in bad terms.

People may not believe, but 8bc was good once upon a time. Then the drama dragon appeared.

We can't negate the chipmusic label, since I think it's the way to describe how you do it. It's totally different from anything else just because the sound engineering we do. Even if I consider my music a mix of any genre I like, I still use some device to sound like "mario at teh ravez", thus making me a "chiptuner" (lol).
But, to say anything, I first say I do electronic music with old computers and videogame sounds and bla bla bla.

yup. paid gigs i do usually just end up covering that each time, which I'm fine with too. Only replace subway with taxi (only because the subway has stopped here in montreal by 3:00am)
Here the subway stops 00:00 but comes back at 4.30 or something.

Re: Average time spent on creating a song- (56 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I wrote my last ep (which consists of one music of 15 minutes) in 4 to 6 hours - I can't remember exactly.
But depends, I have songs unfinished yet and songs I spend one hour to finish it - not that it's good or something.

My regular job pays for food, clothing, bills and sake. But fortunately, about 30% of my gigs are paid (and that's a big thing in Brazil). This is the money I invest on gear and I plan to put on a 7'' single in the future. So yes, money is necessary.
Since i live in Brazil too, this aply to me as well. I bought my lsdj cart and the dingoo with it.
Now I'm working (seriously, i'm at work) and I'm gonna buy a mixer from pulselooper. Investing in something that will make it better for me to make music.
Now, selling or not selling doesn't aplly everywhere. In usa is different from here. People don't buy it, myself included. All I buy is LP records. I can't even remember the last CD I bought, it has been soooo long (probably 2004 or so). Piracy here will continue (inserting coin).
As I would love to get money from my music (which I got, you can't imagine), I still have to work to pay the rent, buy food, etc. As much as I would love to live from my music, it's impossible now.
We here in Brazil got interesting results with culture places who have money (either from government or private initiative). But concerning the public, some cities I played were complete failures while others had a lot of people in the gig.
In my next gig I will bring some physical copies, some sort of best of of my music, draw some covers and sell it. I think I will get at least the money for the beers I will drink and the subway I'll get to go home. Which is all I want now, actually.
tldr: Gigs is where the thing is, not selling music at the web IMO. Sell cds at your gigs or to people you know. I know it doesn't matter the quality, if you sell to your friends or acquitances, even hand-made cds printed from a shitty printer will work (I know this works).
Mind note: I need to promote my project better in the future.

Tell your girlfriend to go fix some steaks and vote the damn thing.
She went buy me beer last night, so I had time to vote.
