Serious question. Do they have day jobs? Or are they trustafarians?

A high portion of them do seem to work in the software/computer industry. A subset of these tend to run a label on top of that.

it's not a lucrative field unless you want to get sucked off in bathrooms randomly

off the top of my head -- joshua kit clayton is the lead programmer at cycling '74 (the company behind max/msp); mpc (safety scissors) does support for the same company; scott monteith (deadbeat) used to work for tassman. robert henke, of course, is one of the founders of ableton.

They earn a big bass salary, with a few little effects on top of that.

whoever said puns are the lowest form of humor is wrong. THEY ARE THE HIGHEST AND ONLY TRUE DISCIPLES OF THE COMEDIC WAY REALIZE THIS.

Oh, and what happened to sarcasm, then?

Off on a wild tangent here: did you know that the phrase "Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit" is a bastardisation of the correct form: "Sarcasm is the cruellest form of wit"?

I prefer the correct form.

I believe it has always been 'lowest', but that it originally meant 'low' in a sense not too far from 'cruel'.

I think microhouse will really start to get interesting when all thse artists hit pension age.
