Love posts where people share the details and specifics, regardless of the industry.
Kinda. Lots of vague generalizations. “Let’s assume the seller takes 50%” (which sellers take that?)

“Let’s assume $2” (most were a bit less).

Why only list sales by single on the EP? There’s no mention of the EP sold as a whole.

And then “this project took a year of my life and COST me money”. This is his job ... he obviously must have made something from it or have some savings that he’s not mentioning - it’s not like you can work to make a loss consistently.

Yeah maybe its a market issue. I live in a major metropolitan market and local DJs who almost never produce makes more money than that.

Granted a specific market + genre combo can only support a handful of these "regionally famous" DJs, but that's probably just market self regulation.
