I've heard quite a lot of material and whilst I don't love it I don't hate it either. It is just unremarkable.

Is it because the material is overhyped? overplayed? unoriginal? or something else?


Just ignore it in a few month it will be something else they are hating on. Not so long back it was sean tyas turn then before that it was tiesto majority of people that do it just enjoy jumping on a bandwagon and join in they probably dont like been seen as different by liking the artist.

i started disliking tyas on my own, without realizing he was hated. it was the excessive drumrolls. i'm still realizing that he, actually, is also hated around these parts.

tiesto looks ridiculous next to his armani ads and "some asian flutes, huh?" statement

also, armin is cool, but i hate the sameness of ASOT and the incessant "OMG-ness" of his fans, most of whom know nothing about EDM


does that confirms my coolness or what.

+ 1. IMO, alot of people that love/hate certain popular artists tend to be band-wagoners.

Ah, "may" being the keyword.





Anyways, I don't hate deadmau5 at all. I think he's doing pretty damn well for himself and must be making enough from the music to be pretty set for a while.


Aside from that, I think his music is some of the most boring, gimmicky, uninteresting, creatively stangnant dance music being offered up right now. I can think of hundreds of other artists I'd rather play, listen to, dance to, or pay money to go see, not to mention have far more respect for. I don't aspire to ever be anything like deadmau5 or his music. Ever. By my own accounts I'm already far more succesful than he likely ever will be in the dance music circles I wish to belong to.

Yeah, that's the thing...

To the "jealousy card" folks in this thread, success = fame + money. Apparently nothing else enters into the equation. Deadmau5 may be successful, but 50 Cent has him beat by miles.

What would you do if you found out Hunter S. Thompson was an asshole when he was alive? Would you stop reading his publications? That's moronic to me. See it's all relative, my friend. Einstein said it a long time ago, however, you still seem unable to process this thought in your mind.
