Red hot canadian producer deadmau5 hits irish shores this weekend but local dj's better keep out of his way. The five times beatport award winner told clubmix in an explosive interview that he HATES dj's and think they're all fucking cunts.

Deadmau5 prenounced dead mouse said he will only perform live shows of his own music and thinks dj's should be extinct. he says "It puts me to fucking sleep to be quite honest, i dont really see the technical merit in playing two songs at the same speed together and it bores me to fucking tears and hopefully with all due respect to the dj type that will fucking go the way of the dinosaur id like them to disafuckingpear."

joel continued, " It's so middle man, they're like fucking lawyers you need them,but they're fucking cunts. god bless them they're my number one customer right so im not gonna go diss every fucking dj.but to say you become this massive up on a podium performer by playing other peoples productions at the same speed as someone eles productions and fading between the two of them, i don't get it"




anyone else ever here if this was mis quoted or made up? or was this just a stunt for attention?

You know what puts ME to sleep? Minimal tech house. :D

Seriously though I do see where he's coming from...albeit not even close to being as angry about it as he. I admire the DJ/producer who plays their own stuff onstage and attempts to come closer to a P.A.-like performance...It's more of a challenge, and it's more exciting. Plus I loathe the massive egos of those who think they're hot shit because they can 'play two records from different producers at the same speed' :D

But DJ'ing is right-out good fun! And it gives people some interesting new combinations of records to shake their collective asses to. It's all good...but if you're gonna come with an ego you damn well better have the REAL goods to back it up.

i believe he already replied to the accusation in his own blog or something, but i could be wrong. basically he didn't really apologize, just put his comments into context saying that yeah it bored the crap out of him listening to dj's beatmatch one track to the next etc...
