It's really becoming evident of how big acts like Deadmau5 are .. I don't want to say ruining, but drawing outside attention, to my beloved music. No hatred to Deadmau5 personally as I know it's his job and the more people listening to you the more cash you're bringing in, gotta make a living after all.
It's kind of like a double edged sword for me: In one way I want/need people to accept electronic music so that I can have an audience that wants to hear the music I play. But on the other hand I feel like there are so many bandwagon/posers coming out of the woodwork recently it's almost scary how fast it's happening (This is the US just to clarify)
I was playing a party last night and threw on Dirty Disco Youth remix of Ghosts n Stuff .. cause its a big song right now and I like that remix. Instantly a kid comes up and says "Hey! You like Deadmau5?!?" ... "No not really, I think he is pretty boring" Which is honestly how I feel ... The kid was almost taken aback that I wasn't like "Yeah dude can't get enough Deadmau5!!" I just felt like shaking my head in annoyance haha. Call me a hater, but its just starting to annoy me.
Am I alone here? Or is anyone else feeling the same way?
