Because it is a bit sad to watch someone with obvious talent using it to rehash the same two or three tracks?

He is giving his fans what they want, though. It does kind of puzzle me when a producer seems to have no vision at all for himself as an artist, apparently working to make only the kind of stuff that pleases the biggest crowd possible. But if that is what really makes him feel happy and fulfilled, who am I to judge?

It's easy to claim that hatred comes from popularity but in this case it's said already. Rceently he has basically made 2 tracks over and over again with huge pace, made Essential Mix with nothing but his own tracks and has made remixes for Café Del Mar and Finished Symphony which were really really unnecessary.

I don't really care much about this guy but he should have left Finished Symphony alone.

To be honest, Deadmau5 does make a lot of different sounding tracks in different styles (Faxing Berlin <> Duo Cad Sordid <> Complications), it's just that nobody makes a big deal about it on here. Not that I'm some big mau5 fanboi or something.

Wrong. There are many 'big' artists who are known to be nice guys too. J00F, Jody Wisternoff/Nick Warren, Hybrid & many others who aren't actually douchebags.

if mau5's tracks weren't as popular, all this criticism would pretty much be non existent. Obviously, what makes the "hater" individuals hate him so much is not the fact that his music recycles certain elements. And it's not the fact that deadmau5 is so popular. Instead, it's those two factors combined that make the haterade recipe so effective - the fact that this recycled music actually manages to attract thousands of fans & dollars. This is what they don't understand, or rather they understand it but it definitely makes them boil a little.

The whole argument that he is polluting the EDM scene with crap music has no basis at all. There are hundreds of thousands of EDM artists in this world, one guy producing music how he wants doesn't ruin the scene - at all, in no way. When most of you say you're not jealous, but rather feel disappointed that mau5 is "wasting his talent" - come on, you expect us to believe that? lol. Since when are you so concenred what some young kid is doing with his talented potential? Like i said, there are many many talented artists in this scene - it really doesn't matter what one of them chooses to do in the studio.

So who'll be the first to say "omg i cannot BELIEVE he's playing the jealousy card again!"
