And of course the chance to get the stems and that is a bonus too.
If he had sold it at something like ?20, as a general release or maybe a few online stores, he'd likely not sold that many and not have made nearly as much money, and you can guarantee it would be available on a site for free within minutes. I'm not saying it absolutely won't happen this time like but you'd hope not.
I don't believe though that he could possibly work solidly for this amount of time on 10 hardcore tracks, a man of his experience and expertise really should knock them out quicker than that, especially as there's no physical product to arrange. I think if he really wanted to he could bang out a hardcore track here and there, get them released on his label or someone else's, if he loves the music that much.
Mate, he banged these tracks out in a day each TOPS, he probably already had most of em made , such ground-breaking originals like 'bounce 2 diss beat ' and 'fresh beats ' though I suppose took him a day n a half cause he obviously thought long and hard about the deeper meaning behind the tracks, there's absolutely NO WAY he banged out these tracks just for the cash, NO WAY was he just looking to make ?1000 per generic ******** track he knocked up.

He earns 1000s and 1000s of pounds from playing drum n bass all over the world every week, and now he's just pocketed 10 grand off you stupid mother****ers for banging out such ground-breaking originals like 'yeah yeah yeah ' and 'tonight '.

Yes, like ' fresh beats ' and 'ready', , all I'm saying is he's DEFINITELY put a lot of thought and effort into this album and there's absolutely NO WAY he's just banged out 10 generic tracks to pocket a quick 10 grand. I mean come on, he took a picture of him and brisk in the studio and everything.

Spectacularly incorrect. Hamilton won't appear at a RAM event until August. The last event promoted on the Hamilton page was from the start of February.
Check your facts and stop doing double-posts.
Don't get me started about the ignorance of slating an album for it's track names..

Sounds to me like Skarr couldn't afford the 100 pounds required for this album

And he won't be able to, unless Corbyn wins in June and hikes all the benefits back up.

So he doesn't earn 1000s and 1000s of pounds from playing drum n bass all over the world then ? Maybe he's just taking a break ? He's signed to the biggest drum n bass label of all time, he's made SILLY cash , so now he's sitting back and putting another 10 grand in his pocket for doing absolutely **** all, other than ripping people off and posting the odd video and picture every now and again.

I can say with confidence that your estimation of what a D&B producer earns is highly inflated. Moreso, Ham has had one EP a year on the label with occasional compilation features. RAM might be a large label, but it's nothing like what it used to be, and D&B artists don't make a big packet out of producing the music. As with Hardcore artists, it's a labour of love that if done correctly can pay the bills.
Does Ham have two 17-plate Maserati's on his drive? Lol. No. Probably more like a Mark 3 Mondeo and Pug 307 CC.
Now please, with all your evidential first-hand experience, please tell me how wrong I am.

The following tunes are now officially rubbish, due to boring names:
Slipmatt - Hear Me
Prodigy - Your Love
Dougal & Vibes - Feel Free
Gammer - Get Away
Scott Brown - Now Is The Time
and countless others
