you need to learn about the music industry if you don't consider him one of the best and most successful artists in the scene. Either that or you think that underground music is the only thing that deserves credit. Do you know how hard it is to make a pop EDM track that also has amazing production value? his live show, branding and productions are way beyond ninety percent of anyone out there. my bad, i forgot that you sold-out the Rogers Center playing loops off of a laptop as well. there is a massive difference between deadmau5 and david guetta. not to mention he was most likely the first person that used illegal blogs and illegal downloading to his advantage. I bet if he lived in Berlin and wore an oversized scarf you'd like him. And just so you know, I bet 99% of your favourite producers consider deadmau5 to be a great artist, no matter what kind of chin-stroking ambient beatless techno they make... I hope your post was a joke and I got trolled hard.... djs these days...
just so you know this wasnt a condescending post targeting you in specific but the uneducated idiots of the world as a whole. I'm sure you're a pretty cool guy and have great taste in music. I'm honestly a very shy and non-confrontational person (you can ask anyone on these forums that knows me) but you have no idea how annoying it is reading retarded comments from zippyshare allstars that are convinced they know what they're talking about.

I think at this point it's a bit of both. The angry and at times, socially inept rants are legendary but by now I'm sure he's smart enough to know it also gets a reaction from ppl, and it only helps to keep him 'noticed.' Any publicity is good publicity, esp with Madge-isil on the other end.

Is deadmau5 commercially successful? Without a doubt.
Is he "one of the best?"
How do you determine that?
The other thing I gleened from this post is that if you don't like his music you are "uneducated", "Berlin worshipping", "scarf wearing", "zippyshare allstar" and that you probably follow artists who make "chin-stroking ambient beatless techno."
And that the post wasn't "condescending".
Someone post that Rick James video where he contradicts himself :p

Nope
Both of them used to produce good music and then sold their soul to make money
Good try tho

It doesn't take a good musician to make the kids foam at their mouth... Just look at what skrillex is doing... At the end of 2007 before deadmau5 sold out he was actually doing decent stuff...

look for the 'beefs' and the rants to pick up, as with the glitzy productions, while the music will be even more generic-sounding and cheesy. It's almost like those variables work in proportion to one another.

Guetta peaked with World is Mine, imo.

as a producer, talk like this will ruin your cred. is britney spears a legend because she has platinum records?
the only thing i find sort of hilarious is a guy that wears an animal head that shoots lazers out of his eyes is complaining about something cheapening the "scene" ( i hate that word.). What do you think all of those crazy visuals at his show are designed for? Does he think sober people come to his show to glowstick and watch the sick lazers?
to me this is similar to when shm said all of house music sucks now, when they easily make the worst house music ever.
not to mention joel was once a cracked out candy kid himself.
