Deadmau5's music is actually the product of a military study to use sound as a weapon. It was determined to be highly painful to humans, but not fatal, therefore it was declassified and released as a commercial product. The above pic of the effects of his "music" on rats is actually part of Ortho's new ad camapign, but its still in development. I'm guessing you either work for them, or for a rival company looking to leak their secrets in order to deflate its future econimic blow to your sales. If the latter, I can only caution you, as I've seen the future of pest control, and this is it.

Relax dude. Every 15 year old ever has started with some cheesy EDM to get them in the business. The people who started with the "underground" is the minority. Now of course, we can have different definitions of underground. After all, if you compare Deadmau5 to Celine Dion, he is quite underground.

Of course Deadmau5's music is of very poor quality, but he serves a purpose, the same as Tiesto, AVB or even Benny Benassi. Most of these 15 yr old will grow up listening to other music, for better or for worse. And if they don't, well fuck them, you probably don't want to be friends with them anyway.

The lazy producing and cheesy music will always be part of EDM. Technology has only made it easier.

See ? This kid is probably excited as a virgin on her wedding night, but a few years from now, he will probably look back and think how silly he was. I bet you probably find yourself silly for liking A State of Trance back in the days (or whatever shit got you into EDM). I know thinking about myself in psytrance nights @ Aria waving glowsticks make me laugh.

Well it's the same for the Deadmau5 kids.

actually i am not only into 'cheesy' stuff like deadmau5 but also 'underground' dj's that get everyone orgasming on this site (hawtin, holden, zabiella, etc etc)

even the biggest of names produce some good music, and i find it ridiculous that haters get all bent out of shape by commercial djs and saying how bad they are, they can't mix, they should be shot etc....

seriously people - ITS OK to like the odd poppy tune once in a while if it is good EDM. i'm sure if 15 year olds had no idea who Deadmau5 was, you would be dying over how dirty of a tune 'slip' is, or 'arguru' for instance..... neither of which is very poppy if you take away the mouse head!!

just because he's now a pop star doesn't mean he can't make a good tune people!! he's a businessman but also has some pretty sick skills to make some of the stuff he has

you guys are so l33t

why should someone feel silly because he enjoyed listening to trance mix CDs 5 years ago?

you guys take music way too seriously lol

I dont give a fuck about deadmau5 but I still enjoyed faxing berlin and the song with morgan page when they were released and I won't feel bad about it ...

I don't consider someone my friend because of his music tastes...if any of you do...get a fucking life !

and by the way Mr. Alexx G I've been seeing a lot of your post the last few months/years and you were acting exactly like these OMGBBQ kids for the opening of stereo or shitty trancy bookings at red lite

Vermz is always right...i hate him

its true, fuck who cares what people get into first, its always going to happen...Most people starting listening to euro dance, or trance, or now this electro beat of Deadmouse or Benny Benassi style...theres always the starting point...theres people who stay with the genre and progress into other EDM and theres people who stay there forever

i was into Tiesto back in the day, so were many people, or trance in general

"evolution of taste"

I STARTED WITH THE SPICE GIRLS GUYS (Viva Forever)

AND NOW IM LISTENING TO APHEX TWIN - MATHEMATICAL EQUATION ! SEE !

Euordance..gotta love it..i still listen to this stuff like once a week..cant get fed up of all those classics....and yes Vermz is right...who cares what people listen to at 10/15/20/25...i will probably be 30 and still listen to my eurodance stuff...

As for trance...hey i love it...so what?....i have a massive collection of trance and ii keep myself up to date on a daily basis.....same goes for house......

as for this underground stuff...blah doesnt get to me....same goes for stereo..i havent been there once...so freaking what?.. should i start asking myself if i have become a fag for listening to eurodance or trance in 2009?

way to miss the point entirely...

Yup, you got it. Everyone started with something, and a few started with non-cheesy stuff. The point that Vermz missed entirely is that you do not need to feel ashamed of what got you into EDM or any other music. Still, it's funny when you think about what you were into a few years ago and how your taste evolve.

And that was the point. Some of you started with Tiesto and AVB. Some of you started with Basshunter or Dj Sammy. Some of you started with Guettta and Bob Sinclar.

Most of you don't listen to that stuff anymore.

Now the kids start with Deadmau5. So what ? The music is crap and they will realize it soon enough. They will move away come back, but still they need a starting point.

If we want our scene to survive, we have to allow for the "commercial" DJs playing lazily produced EDM to have a place in the industry, to get newcomers.

the only reason deadmau5 is more underground then celine dion is cause his beginnings as a lab rat were in his crack head basement
