    He actually invented the genre.

      Which genre? He merely refined electr0house and melded it with progressive. I guess you can call that an invention but it's been pretty brutal and is little more than a milking of similar sounds, repeatedly.

        By genre I meant "music".

          You guys seriously need to think about what he is actually saying.

          Deadmau5 is Identifying what most people call a dj " a disk jokey"....some dude fading between two tracks....not some dude doing live modifications or being artistic.

          Im 100% in a agreement with Deadmau5....if you want to be respected as a Dj you damn well better be artistic enough to bring something of your own to the table(s). If your up there using a fucking filtersweep, crossfade and some frequency nobs...you might as well not be there...computers can do that..and there is no need for some random guy on strage with both his hands in the air doing shit all. A real artist or performer is just that....An artist...and many Dj's are just disk jokeys and not musicians or performers.

          The best Dj in the world is me (you)...because I know what I like to hear, when I like to hear it...but the substance itself...what is being produced. Thats something which requires others....

            Let's not make him more important than he is. Had he phrased his concepts the way you did it would have made much more sense but nobody would have noticed, producers dissing djs is as old as the Milky Way.
            Since you're posting in this Board you're well aware that he's talking bullshit and there are hundreds of great djs with their own unique style out there and a few of them are also great producers. There are people like Gui Boratto who are similar to DM5 in a way but who are much more modest and respectful to the scene they're, like it or not, part of.

              hmm, sounds a lot like Tiesto and Oakenfold to be honest.

                lol, a deadmaus troll?!


                cobalt, i assume your comprehension of dj's(tiesto and okenfold etc.) is relative like most peoples(?), but the djs that we like -- around here -- are preceptors of mad skills and a vastitude of styles, and are all very creative/genius. gg k thx no re.

                      Oakenfold's weaker productions from the early to mid 90's are platinum next to Mickey Mou5's big hits.

                        When I mentioned, Oak, I was only talking about his abysmal DJ'ing skills. Oak as Perfecto always needed his production gurus to get anything of substance done anyway.

                          His stuff was amazing, he's a fantastic performer, and it was one of the best nights I have been to in years...

                          Just check the response of the crowd in these youtube clips....











                          I gotta give it to him, he is a prolific artist and a talent second to none in the electronic industry...
                          Having never heard of deadmau5 before, I'd be interested in hearing this live set from him... I wonder if it is available...

                              Yes that guy is a twat, had to sit through a set, to see someone else and the this knob shut down the music for a couple of minutes, so I walked right out, total vibe killer.

                              So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

                              1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
                              2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
                              3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
                              4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

                              Am I close here?

                                I'll chime in cause I met him in Miami. Joel is just a socially inept DORK. He's basically the kid in high school that thought he was great because he was really good at calculous. But he was an arrigant jackass that nobody liked & got stuffed in a locker. Dead Mow Five is that kid. A dork that is really good at something. Not everybody likes his stuff, but for most, when he drops Faxing Berlin or "Not Exactly" (my fav of his stuff) the floor goes crazy.

                                I'll leave ya with a couple stories to show his personality. At the Ultra Pool party, he told some "joke." It didnt even really have a punchline or anything, but he loved it because he got to yell the word "cunt." He said it sooo fuckin loud too. Peopl ewere looking at him wondering what the hell was up with him. He probably should have tried his "joke" on some friends first (if he has any). Instead, he probably tried it out on a hard drive & some stuffed animals...

                                Story 2... My buddy Joe Bermudez interviewed him a few months ago for his radio show (MassMovement Radio) Now Joe knows just about everyone. He had just finished up the interview & one of the dancers from the club came in the room all smiles. Mr 5 thought she was a fan coming in to see him. He got up with this "big shot" look on his pale face. She walked right past him, didnt even look at him, & came over & gave Joe B a big hug & kiss. They chatted for a minuted & she left again, still not even looking at Deadmau5. He said to Joe "I feel like I'm back in high School." hahaha, Sucka.

                                he did make a few bombs though.
