The guy is obviously brilliant; I can understand those who insist his music just isn’t for them, however if u are at all into edm you’ve got to hand it to him, his talent and business acumen. I don’t dig all his music but he’s a true artist even if he does come across as pretentious and douchey sometimes; so prolific check out some of his YouTube interviews to get a better sense, it’s so easy to perpetuate ignorant hate on the interwebs, opinions should be respected but positivty is becoming all too uncommon.

Mr. Maus here is a hater himself. He thinks DJs are all c*nts: his main customers. Don’t buy his apology either was lame attempt at damage control. The guy is a douchebag.

Why hate Deadmau5? just because he's coming out with club hits every month doesn't mean all u haters have to have your period. He's like the new Daft Punk, his songs are easy to recognize because they're uniquely awesome. And he's the most consistent by the way. No disrespect to Tiesto and Armin Van Buuren but they only come out with one good song like a year.

Deadmau5 creats his own synth and music.. compared to so many rnb and rap singers who just copy some loops and sings on it or even takes the whole instrument version of a song n just raps on it n get so much money and fame out of it.. deadmau5 is really modest and does gr8 music.. ppl who say that he sucks truly doesn't know anything about music production and the effort made by artists sometimes..

His The Longest Road remix is a beautiful song, but mostly because of Morgan page's singing. His music is very, very similar though, so mixing his songs together can't be that fucking hard.

wow. who gives a fuck about what the self proclaimed critics think about his music… that’s all subjective. what you cant help but admire is the genius of this kid and his endeavors. I really think delivering music in forms like innovative and fun toys / apps is truly a forward way of thinking in terms of distributing music.

power to the mau5.

While I don’t think Deadmau5’s music is fantastic — they’re mostly catchy tunes with much more room to shine — he and whoever has helped him with marketing have definitely done some clever things. Obvious moves that most miss out on. That iconic mouse head helmet helps him standout in a sea of anonymous bedroom producers. Expanding into areas like this will also boost his popularity, it looks like a neat promo item and a bridge into showing how easy the basic elements of production are.

@Ted: I still prefer a “traditional” cd or an official online download…plus, i don’t think that everyone has (or wants) an iphone or similar device, so apps (and marketing strategies) like these, will be only for a few people until iphone or other similar devices will be a standard for mobile phones etc…except all this, we must find some true artists first…not another “dance beat loop” guy with boring dance patterns for the clubs…

I don’t think this is meant to be a “professional tool” for DJs. The interesting part is the distribution model for artists. Apps like these could be the new singles/EPs/LPs.

I believe that this kind of mobile applications will play the same role that e-jay applications played, before a decade. Music toys for starters. People with powerful mobile phones, who haven’t got anything else to kill their time except using their phones for every possible job…Some of them will have an impact on chiptune scene etc.. I-phones are not a serious music tool IMO. Its all about fun…also with some more money, i prefer to buy a little laptop which won’t die after 2-3 years because of abuse and battery service/replacement costs and can always be connected with a serious external audio interface and not just a medium quality ipod chip…

OK – you hate Deadmau5 – but a bigger question is the role apps like this will play in the future of music, don’t you think?

I couldn’t agree more. The most overhyped dj/producer ever.
I do like some of his tracks such as “Faxing Berlin” and “Sex, Lies, Audiotape” but to be honest,most of the tracks sound the same.
