there's a screenshot of greentext from one of the *chans where a visual artist describes the physical and mental revulsion of furry art (the artist is revolted), and the fact that no matter what, they pay the most, usually up front. the artist would love to make normal commissions, but there's no money in it.

I've personally been part of about a dozen musical albums, i've never seen a penny or any recognition for it. One thing i managed to upload to the internet got a third of a million hits, but it was happenstance, not music, and i just happened to edit wikipedia very quickly and have a really good sound file host at the time. It was the "re-awakening" of the UVB-76 "buzzer" in ~2010 - and i can't even remember how i recorded it anymore! Wired magazine and a few other outlets approached me to license the recording. If you've heard the "NAIMINA" recording of UVB-76, that was something that was originally put on the internet by me.

I haven't released a "real" song in over a decade.

I use this recording as part of a strange personal radio station project, it's one of the burst samples I use for flavor. I love that noise. Thanks man!
