you could put a bit of effort in to creating a decent dj mix and still manage to get a few of your own new tunes in for the promotional side of it if you wanted. I can't imagine creating a mix most likely on abelton with all your own tracks was very taxing for you.

Maybe its a sadder reflection on where the show itself is going rather than you tho eh?

Something of a side note, but unless this was a joke:

...man, what are the odds of that?

Exactly. It was fucked from the start.

And why he should do this? He made the set in order to please his fans (and they aren't a small number). You don't like the music, so you don't tune in. Listen to your stuff and wait for other guest for an EM which you will like. Easy as that.

Since when is a DJ set ABOUT promoting your own tracks?

Slide em in there on occasion, open with one of them, close with one of them, accentuate a peak time moment with them, whatever; I'm all for it, but don't BUILD a whole set around them.

If you want to think about a DJ set in regards to self promotion and pleasing people who more or less got to know and enjoy you due to your own tracks, then it doesn't get any better than Deadmau5's EM. Otherwise...

I don't think it's a matter of not liking the music.

I don't recall many people criticizing this set because the quality of the music is poor.

People are criticizing this set because...well, I think it's pretty obvious why people are criticizing this set, and I think if I use the phrase 'all his own tracks' one more time, it's going to make me sick (and yes, I'm completely aware that I just used it again there)

Deadmau5's EM can't possibly be more horrible than Oakenfold trainwrecking multiple times on his EM.
