FAO: DJs, DeadMau5 thinks you're a cunt.

[The Overfiend]

I would take it with a pinch of salt it's not worth wasting your enegry bitching & moaning about him there are more things in life to worry about other than what some big named artist has said about DJ's

This man has a point

True, some of the remixes are gash, but he really has put techno back on the map somewhat.

? DeadMau5 has? :lol:

[Smear]

Hes taking the piss in true Canadian fashion, everything else seems to be jealous mofos giffing off. True, some of the remixes are gash, but he really has put techno back on the map somewhat.

Firstly you're entitled to your opinion and quite right that you should let people know it, so jolly good show sir.

I'm fully in support of Deadmau5 now, thanks to this thread.

Society gets the celebrities it deserves, people like Deadmau5 stand up and say 'You're all gullible morons', and everyone replies in unison 'If it u wot sed dat, den yes we am. Coz u wuz in de papur eenit.'

Deadmau5 put techno back on the map. did techno ever go off the map? does he even make techno?
I personally never heard of him till I seen this article, somewhat I feel like that was his plan.

"......even tho i havent been lisstening to u for a long time i think that you are very talented and like wat u said....."

Yet more confirmation that he's won, and that he's a genius. Gains fans from calling DJs cunts, gains fans from backtracking on it, gains more fans by denying that he was ever a DJ(which he was) and then gains even more fans with some pseudo-communist new labour drivel about music 'for the people'. He is definitely a genius.

okay, im going to level with all of you here... much as i always have. regarding alot of crap flying around these days regarding some hack press in Ireland, more specifically, some lame crap i said about "DJ's"...

Over the past couple of weeks, ive never really had the desire to defend some tablotic / "juicy" press, but i guess im sick of hearing about it... so might as well explain what little i feel obligated to remove any static it's caused.

during an onsluight of phoner interviews in a single night, i do recall being asked alot of questions that i felt i really had no answers to... I honestly feel that the dance music scene needed a good bit of shaking up... sure, i bet there are thousands of people who will cling onto just about any written article and believe it to be fact. Well, wasn't really the case this time...

i could only have imagined people wouldnt read into it so much (let alone the interview wouldnt pick out all the stupid bits) and miss the point completely.

let me start by admitting.... i did not grow up in the EDM scene. I dont consider my career to be about "being a DJ". i dont have "DJ roots" . I never had any intention of becoming a DJ. and my conception of "DJ's" in general from this standpoint has always been... .. being forced into some nightclub when i would have rather stayed home, and watch some dood mash the "play / stop" button and occaisionally move a pitch slider. Love it or hate it.... that's just been my conception of the traditional "dj".

mind you, im not a total ****ing idiot, and i recognize talent when i see it.... and there are many talented DJ's out there for sure. In my eyes, those would be the individuals who utilize technology to deliver the music in ways that are both skillful and innovate, moreso than my vision of the "play/stop/pitch" DJ. To me, the club is about "the party" .... the people make the night... the DJ obviously needs to use that to his advantage, it's give and take.

okay, to say "all dj's are...." etc etc, to be taken literally as this article did, was just painfully stupid and wrong on their behalf. So im not the worlds most eloquent person... any idiot can tell you that. But the meaning behind the statement was "the concept that i recognize as being a "disc jockey"....

now, i can personally guarantee that this blog post is going to fling right back into the ugly pit it came from... the message boards, the forums, the... well whatever.

see it as a fail attempt at correcting a wrong, or backtracking, or just being plain hypocritical, i really dont give a **** either way.... this statement isn't for you ****ing elitist ****heads who have nothing better to do with your internets. This is for the the people who appriciate what im doing, people who enjoy music, and is meant to assure those people that my intent was not to insult or belittle anyone or any group of people in particular.

on hindsight, it's really amazing what a 3 minute phone call to some random irish news paper can do.... hell... that thing made about 12 laps around the world in about 4 hours. now thats impressive.

at the end of the day, the music plays on. And thats what it's all about for me... to interview me about anything other than music... is stupid. period.

the response.

[DannyBlack]

At the end of the day, the guy is still an epic twat.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeewind

"Honestly, I use the word cunt as a term of endearment! I call my mum and granny cunts all the time..." - DeadMau5 on his recent out burst.

[clubsynthetic]

turns out it was published out of context.

anyway, who the **** cares? It isn't as if i don't know that these DJs get paid far too much.

i saw deadmaus last night at creamfields.

First few tracks were quite fun, big raspy basslines and bouncey stuff. Not my cup of tea usually, but good festival stuff and the crowd loved it.

He then petered out into nothingness. By the end of his set I didn't even realise he was still playing. I thought he'd finished a while ago and the "filler" dj between acts was just killing time before the next guys got set up.
Terrible.

Say what you like about over paid over hyped djs, but at least they don't run out of material after 20 minutes.

[System 47]

lol

thats funny :)

[djshiva]

ah yeak you're right. I'm sure he something out there that Id identify with. pity he's a bellend.


I do like his Mousey head, it is wicked!

honestly, judging from the clip, he is fond of taking the piss. laughed my ass off at the joke bluescreen. i think he said it just to get a rise out of people.

that said, it could just as easily backfire on him.

i saw deadmaus last night at creamfields.

I wonder if they kept him waiting for his fee, like they did Henry?
