i see some bitterness in this thread. Maybe DJ bombtrack is not reaping the rewards of his own "hard work". Therefore he feels the need to lash out.

lame!

I'm not sure why electronic musicians are looked at as not being "real" musicians. Composing a good electronic song takes as much talent as any other genre.

To me writing electronic music is basically like composing a symphony. It doesn't really matter if it's a computer synth or a person playing the violin. Someone still has to decide what notes will be played and when.

I suppose you could compare it to being a "composer" but really, isn't a composer a type of musician? It's kind of like splitting hairs.

Joel is very talented, technically and musically. I don't think it really matters if he can pick up a guitar and strum or not.

I'm not a big fan of deadmau5, but the man got where he is today for a reason. It takes a lot more than just hard work to be an internationally renowned Producer/DJ, and without talent, he would be playing local gigs in small clubs for peanuts.
He has contributed a lot to the EDM community, and he is representing Canada/Ontario/Toronto across the world.
You don't have to like him, but you should at least have a bit of respect.

PS:
DON'T Leave deadmau5 alone, he secretly likes the e-attention

And you know that because you prolly lived with him for the last 20 years?

he does play instruments, better than any of those ignorant fucks on here who think they are music experts just cause they have too much time on their hands and no talent to post this stupid crap on the internetZ

dont choke on your bitterness

Records schmecords.... why nickpick at words... he's got a good point... when that day comes when a producer or artist goes gold or platinum... will they give him or her a picture frame plaque with a gold/platinum memory stick instead of a record?

okay. you got me. im not a real musician. im actually a 14 year old sea otter (which is quite uncommon as far as the lifespan of sea otters go).

Sydney Blu is actually a lesbian. she brings girls home, erm the otter den, every weekend where we engage in crazy 3 way otter secks until the wee hours of the morning.

thanks for another great thread. always useful.

"why do all his tracks suck, he's such a terrible dj, why is he so popular.... hey wait... why can't i stop posting self-fulfilling promotional *anti-promotional* posts to someone i dont feel needs to be promoted... i should probably promote that some more."

i dont really get any negativity or random ass insults in my email... so it obviously cant be relevant, important, or contain any substance to it whatsoever... which is why it's a shame to see it on TA.

well im off for a couple weeks... not because i just can't stand the bullshit forum cloud that enshrouds my internet existence.... but i have to go perform for people i care about, and you know who you are

see you guys!

HEY! I wasnt saying that to insult or 'bash' anyone! as I mentioned in my post... I was just under that impression since I am pretty sure I read it in one of those free newspaper/magazine things (ie. scenester) that had an article about pride!
