Re: Deadmau5 hates DJ's

from his myspace.. [URL]http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&friendID=4809789[/URL] [quote] okay, im going to level with all of you here... much as i always have. regarding alot of crap flying around these days regarding some hack press in Ireland, more specifically, some lame crap i said about "DJ's"...

Over the past couple of weeks, ive never really had the desire to defend some tablotic / "juicy" press, but i guess im sick of hearing about it... so might as well explain what little i feel obligated to remove any static it's caused.

during an onsluight of phoner interviews in a single night, i do recall being asked alot of questions that i felt i really had no answers to... I honestly feel that the dance music scene needed a good bit of shaking up... sure, i bet there are thousands of people who will cling onto just about any written article and believe it to be fact. Well, wasn't really the case this time...

i could only have imagined people wouldnt read into it so much (let alone the interview wouldnt pick out all the stupid bits) and miss the point completely.

let me start by admitting.... i did not grow up in the EDM scene. I dont consider my career to be about "being a DJ". i dont have "DJ roots" . I never had any intention of becoming a DJ. and my conception of "DJ's" in general from this standpoint has always been... .. being forced into some nightclub when i would have rather stayed home, and watch some dood mash the "play / stop" button and occaisionally move a pitch slider. Love it or hate it.... that's just been my conception of the traditional "dj".

mind you, im not a total fucking idiot, and i recognize talent when i see it.... and there are many talented DJ's out there for sure. In my eyes, those would be the individuals who utilize technology to deliver the music in ways that are both skillful and innovate, moreso than my vision of the "play/stop/pitch" DJ. To me, the club is about "the party" .... the people make the night... the DJ obviously needs to use that to his advantage, it's give and take.

okay, to say "all dj's are...." etc etc, to be taken literally as this article did, was just painfully stupid and wrong on their behalf. So im not the worlds most eloquent person... any idiot can tell you that. But the meaning behind the statement was "the concept that i recognize as being a "disc jockey"....

now, i can personally guarantee that this blog post is going to fling right back into the ugly pit it came from... the message boards, the forums, the... well whatever.

see it as a fail attempt at correcting a wrong, or backtracking, or just being plain hypocritical, i really dont give a fuck either way.... this statement isn't for you fucking elitist fuckheads who have nothing better to do with your internets. This is for the the people who appriciate what im doing, people who enjoy music, and is meant to assure those people that my intent was not to insult or belittle anyone or any group of people in particular.

on hindsight, it's really amazing what a 3 minute phone call to some random irish news paper can do.... hell... that thing made about 12 laps around the world in about 4 hours. now thats impressive.

at the end of the day, the music plays on. And thats what it's all about for me... to interview me about anything other than music... is stupid. period.[/quote]what a fukin arrogant wanker, imo..

Yes, ass pubes. I have a hairy ass, and I sweat a lot. Therefore, he can drink the sweat that accumulates in my ass crack, on my ass pubes.

Re: Deadmau5 hates DJ's

maybe he should listen to Dizzee as hes got it summed up here..

verse... 2... spot on.. loads of top advice in one hit..

[ Hook ] Hard back, stern face Play your position and know your place Only move when the money's calling Take my advice, you'll be balling You need a hard back, stern face Play your position and know your place Only move when the money's calling Take my advice, you'll be balling

[ Verse 1 ] First up it's important that you keep your shit original Try and keep that copycat shit to a minimal People want something that they never heard before If it's been done, leave it, they don't wanna hear no more Secondly here's another clever thing that you can do Find yourself a good manager who's really got a clue Cause there're so many to choose from, they all look the part But it's difficult to come across the ones that's really smart And can stand firm and steady when the label's talking shit Well-respected, keeps it gangsta, but does everything legit And dependable, you can trust to handle your biz And can really make sure of what the situation is Next up, find a record label that ain't full of pricks One that lets you breathe artistically but makes you come with hits Congratulations, now you got your a deal, you're set to go Let me fill you in just a couple of things you need to know

[ Hook 2x ]

[ Verse 2 ] Next up, change your number, change your phone and change your chip Cause there's gonna be a lot of people ringing talking shit Whether bredrens wanting money, cause now suddenly you're rich Or some dumb hating fassies trying to take you for a bitch Yeah I know it's minor now and you can handle it, it's nothing But eventually you're really gonna wanna do something And that's counter-productive, beefin over bullshit You can never stop them dumb-bredrens tryin to pull shit Plus you're in the limelight well-paid verbalist Which leads me on to my next subject - journalists These are the people that can put your name about So be careful what you're saying when you're talking out your mouth Aand avoid being ignorant, tone down the thug shit Come to interviews buzzin, tone down the drug shit Keep your eye on the ball, mind on the drop And before you know you had the whole world on your knob

[ Hook 2x ]

[ Verse 3 ] Here's something that I should've stressed early on Don't go spending all your money till it's gone Cause the tax man's gonna want his paper when it's due And there's nobody above the tax man, especially you And another thing, buy a house before you buy a car Don't tell no one where you are, even better if you're far Everybody knows you're a gangsta and that Porsche looks great But do you really want it sitting on that council estate Differently watch where you choose to socialize Keep an eye out for trouble, watch for devils in disguise And please don't be fooled by no pretty females Play it safe, never let them know your full details I ain't saying be para', I'm just saying be sure You can never know if that bitch would brag you what she saw And aside from makin money keep lovin what you do I aint saying nothin what cause the rest is up to you

[ Hook 2x ]
