This year's DEMF lineup had me thinking "Who do you think is overrated and why?"
We can skip obvious choices like Deadmau5 since she already has her own respect/disprespect thread but for example..
I think Skrillex is overrated because his sound design is lackluster, tracks are noisy, abrasive, and often undanceable, and he suffers from Steve Aoki syndrome which presents as an inverse relationship between his energy level and the quality of what he plays. As the track sucks more and more, he jumps around, smokes, and headbangs harder to make up for sucking. Reports have also said he's actually gotten worse at performing the more often he plays out. Yet he may be invited to DEMF.
...and, he's on Mau5trap.
