Okay, Here's why I respect Deadmau5 :

[iNOVA]

He is mixing live using a ton of virtual instruments and custom mix work.

He Really only mixes his own music.

He is putting a new face on what it means to be a DJ (Which scares other DJ)

He has a sick Mouse hat.

He used to be an ex raver and probably did lots of ECSTASY !

And He means Business.

So How Much Ecstasy do you all think it takes before you become a Mau5?

 

[Rectify]

I like all his work that I've heard.

How much ecstasy does it take to become a Mau5? Idk prolly more than just ecstasy lol.

Point to Ponder: The name deadmau5 can mean dead cat or dead mouse.

(mau is the egyptian word for cat)

 

[JoshE]

I want that Mask and Jacket...

Kthxbai

 

[bavm]

that and when he gets together with jelo, i get fking retarded

 

[Rectify]

He looks kinda like Smurf.
You could ask the Mike that would never introduce us I suppose.

 

[turtleloo]

i dont think he scares other DJs... lol if youre a musician like me and you know all his equipment he doenst have to do anything such as beatmatch or harmonic match Abelton his laptop program does that all for him. He uses a Lemur like daft punk youtube then youll understand how easy he makes all his cool sounds and effects. and he has a trigger pad similar to a kaos pad youtube that too. im not saying Deadmau5 is not good he is good at what he does which is playing his music and pressing buttons but you cant compare him to what a DJ does. and yeah im in the audience and his live performance was epic :D

 

[randombeans]

I lovvveeee deadmau5... there's no reason to show WHY you respect him... he makes bad ass music... nuff said

oh and yeah.... i think it takes more than ecstasy to become a mau5

ecstasy and plenty of acid.

 

[Rectify]

don't forget the ketamine!

 

[Zzyzx]

I really like Deadmau5 too, and the kid looks so young!

I'm still moving your thread to Electronic Music

 

[JoeTheStoner]

t shirt semi in the boxers is gonna be everywhere in 2009. watch.

 

[Rectify]

Looks can be deceiving.

 

[MDMAhead]

Deadmau5 is a fad. He makes commercial electrohouse tracks that all sound the same. No one will remember him in 10 years' time.

 

[ChemicalSmiles]

[Rectify]

k so I saw at least 2 mikes today, and the one who knew smurf didn't seem to have the foggiest notion but i him n3way.

 

[AuralAssassin]

boring crap tbh. he also said all dj's are worthless and he hates us. great guy.

 

[мDма]

I got tired of deadmau5' music.
Dead mouse.

 

[Rated E]

He's made a lot of beats. A few of them are good. The rest are average.

Hybrid - Finished Symphony (Deadmau5 Remix)
Not Exactly
Faxing Berlin

Are awesome.

 

[econ 2]

I don't respect him or his music. meh

 

[ChinbarWhalloped]

Going to see him & the prodigy tomorrow, cant wait :D

 

[kaib0rg]

deadmau5 puts a giant MEDIOCRE STAMP on the face of electronic music. dude's tracks are GENERIC!

honestly, between the mousehead, the hype, and the fiasco with him disrespecting the DJ's that make his tracks famous, SERIOUSLY....just sit down one day and listen to the music. it's boring as fuck.
