Seventeen releases is a real body of work. It is also, as far as anything searchable goes, invisible — no review, no writeup, no similar-artist page that says anything about what any of it sounds like.
That is the ordinary condition down here rather than the exception. The index tracks artists spanning six orders of magnitude of audience, from eight million monthly listeners to double figures, and the documentation drops off a cliff somewhere around fifty thousand. Below that line the record of a scene is whatever the artists themselves posted.
Nine tracks in a day is not a small thing to have made. It is just a thing nobody wrote down.
