Deadmau5

what's with this guy, is he seemingly the hottest thing at the moment or what?
I browsed about 15 tracklistings of dj trance sets the other day and his trax were in about 12 of them, most of them usually the opening track. cressida, andrew bennett, andy moor to name a few-every set of theirs has a track of his.
went to see 2 dj's on sat night, bt & dinaire, and both of them dropped his trax, even bt managed to squeeze in one of his tracks in a one hour set. dinaire dropped his current hot remix of hybrid's finished symphony which everyone seems to be playing from armin to prog house djs.
his sound definitely stands out, I'll admit, a bit like james holden's sound did when he came out. if this is the current new sound I'm all for it, cause I think electro has run its course to say the least, all those bleep fart sounds in songs must stop

Rather than releasing a new track every 4 or 5 months like most producers, Deadmau5 strategically released a lot of great tracks in a very short period of time (and there are still a lot more to come).

So whereas he was completely unknown 5 months ago, he came out of nowhere and is without a doubt one of the hottest producers right now.

His tracks also appeal to dj's coming from many different genres such as House, Techno, Progressive House & Trance.

He might be coming to NYC in the coming months on the lookout

Yeah, I find myself guilty... I played "Arguru" to switch from more electro stuff to progressive trancier stuff at Avalon.. and then later played "Trepid" to get into darker sounds with my set.. haha... He's a good producer, don't think he's mindblowing, uses the same sounds and techniques, but still a good producer... What really counts is what he's going to do in 6 months from now, what new sounds he comes up with; that will determin whether he's a one hit wonder (with 10 hits coming all at once, technically, so one hit), or someone who can evolve his own sound... We shall see!

He's a great example of what the scene is today.

A great dj can put out 5000 amazing dj mixes in one month and no one will know that dj exists.

A great producer can put out a few great tracks in a short period of time (or just one great track in his life) and be known throughout the world. which of course leads to this said producer touring around every corner of the world as a dj.

Sure, the scene has been like this for years, but even more so now. And forget it, now that Ableton is around, producers with absolutely no dj'ing talent can just make a premixed dj set in ableton live, show up to a gig, plug in there laptop, press play, and jump around like they are actually doing something.

There's no stopping it, death to the dj

That's the way it works unfortunately.


But I love Deadmau5's work and play many of his productions. The way he strategically planned his releases and exposure was perfect and he deserves all of the credit that he is getting.
