Deadmau5: "burn all electronic music down, i don't care"

[sarasin]

Take a look at this interview.

It is not fair, to judge old Deadmau5 on a few 5min interviews. He is not going to get HIS point across proper.

This vid above really impressed me (I was a DeadMau5 hater too).

He is just an average dude....that feels he needs to stand for his morals and beliefs. Cant fault him after this interview...seriously.

sarasin, yea, I've seen this video before, I think it was even posted around here a couple of weeks bag. I have to agree, though I don't care much for his music, he seems like a nice enough guy, in fact very well spoken and I think he brings a great point regarding internet VS. taking it to the real world.

gonna read the mixmag article now with that video in the back of my mind

[DubluW]

He's absolutely right. He seems to just nail the point, without skirting around what people all think and most importantly know but will never say outright. Props to him.

can we ban deadmau5 threads?

I don't even like deadmau5 but I find I often agree with the guy, even if he is a pompous douche.
Sneak's ranting and ravings are getting so tiring to read and he's honestly just as full of shit as everyone else. By 'calling out' other DJs, he's really just doing anything to keep the spotlight on himself so he can sell his House Gangster line of clothes. He calls out SHM because they sold out, but he just branded house music into a clothing line and is making a profit.
I actually like Sneak too, but him being agaisnt any sort of change makes him sound like an old rambling man saying sideburns are for hippies.

[sarasin]

Yep....and I am sure he realizes that ANY publicity is good publicity....so he just has his say and lets it blow up and watches from the stands.



Its clever in a way...

[DJ 2 Cut]

I think deadmau5 is spot on. Music is meant to evolve. It will always be changing and mutating. If someone thinks that it should stay "pure" and they way it was 10 years ago they will be left behind. No one wants to hear the same thing forever. It gets really boring.

I still think song selection is important. Yea just about anyone can "string together some tunes" but you have to think about how the tracks will effect the audience.

Another mau5 rant yawn

[Coldfuzion]

Fuck mainstream bullshit, and fuck this fucking stupid fucking group mentality bullshit that goes on in (every) scenes. "Omg Deadmau5 hater? YEAH YOU TOO?!" it's SO stupid. Do you not have enough of a brain to formulate your own opinion? And if you think his music is shit, you're out of your fucking mind. I only heard a few tracks here and there off his most recent release and was extremely impressed by the productions and the sounds and overall enjoyed them.

Get the fuck over it. Learn to think. Spread love, not hate. GO FUCKING PRACTICE INSTEAD OF RANTING ON FORUMS.


I'm done . <3

fuck fuck fuck fuck... that's all i got out of your post.
