FAQ

Why do you give away your music?
I have seen a friend have a hit, which sold thousands of copies. This album had massive success in France, UK and Germany. He made 11 euros. This means that while you are trying to spread your message, other people are trying to get rich of you. I do not mind people getting rich, but first and foremost, I have something to say.

You do not want to make money with your music?
Of course, living in the city means living with having to make money. I have a fulltime job. I would love to make money with music; this would give me more time to make music. I do not believe that my music is at such a point people will pay money for it, also nobody (artist) got rich of their album sales. Money, as far as I can judge, comes from performing, touring, specials and such. Basically, I’m happy people listen to it. Thanks!

Are you signed?
Who cares?!? I mean, I make music regardless of others. I expect to finish my first album this year, which will show some massive progress, from my first ever recorded song (Darwin bogle) to whatever song I’m making next. Being signed only helps if you want to sell records and be on commercial radio, but you can download the music. I’m not denying that there aren’t any perks to be with a record label, like actually getting on a commercial radio station, or being promoted till people can’t stand you no more. But I’m happy with what I have.

Will you be signed in the future?
Do I look like a witch-doctor? I can’t see the future, nor do I know, or want to know anyone who can. I don’t see why anyone would want to sign me. And if they come, I will see what is in it for me.
