For a dude who can't really play any instruments, Joel makes some pretty good music.

Agree. A solid 7.   Love it when RP dips its toes into electronica and the 21st century.  Lets keep on broadening our musical horizons.



A solid 7? This is one of the best pieces of electronica out there. A solid 9 bordering on 10!

I'm definitely hearing a lot of pumping with the gain knob... it's kind of distracting to me when artists do this.

I am from Ukraine, now we have 22.45, 18.05.2022. On the application from the smartphone, "Repulse of the air alarm" was transmitted. This composition combined with the message, there is something so fabulous - hooky, like a slipper. I apologize for the incomprehensibility of conveying the feeling...

You could say exactly the same about any other music genre. Music like any other art is one part talent, one part luck.  Now, I am pretty sure a lot of  accomplished musicians love electronic music, and they surely love deadmau5.  I really don't get why people think electronic music is easy to make.

I’m a big fan of your posts fredriley but I think your 100% wrong on this one. I was lucky enough to be able to do Route 66 on a Harley last year and this song came on my Bluetooth noise cancelling earphones on a 2 lane road in New Mexico.  It was the perfect song for that time and place. Good music is good music wherever and whenever it you hear it!



I wish Harley riders would cancel their noise for other people too and not only for themselves. (Some goes for 'sports' car drivers)

Alright Bill, I'm sure deadmau5 and other electronic artist have some more songs, tracks and music, right?
This track has been on rotation for years. It almost like "And now for something completely different" vibe, rather than really exploring something new and different.

Eight minutes and twenty seconds of two bouncy notes. Just what I was hoping to hear this morning!


I was busy getting ready to go somewhere when I heard this bouncy tune playing on RP and thought I'd see who it was. I was surprised to see that I had previously rated this a 2 and even went as far as posting the above snarky comment. 
Funny how music strikes you differently depending on your mood or current attitude, or a dozen other reasons. Today I'm really enjoying this bouncy little "two-note" tune. I've also bounced my rating up to a 7.

Probably the opposite. Bear in mind that Deadmau5 is a club DJ and his music is played at clubs where the Es and love flow, and young people dance incessantly to repetitive techno, and isn't intended for listening at home or in a car or wherever. I've got a couple of his CDs (like, soooooo noughties, grandad) on the strength of his stuff on RP, and if I'm in the mood they're not bad for playing on long car journeys. Sadly, I'm beyond clubbing age... :(
 
By the time E and techno-raves came along, I had matured out of that kind of intense partying.  I get it though.  We dropped MDA for hard driving blues acts in the mid-70s.   Nursed a couple of drinks thanks to the constraints of a student budget.  

Great times.  These days I want to be up and running the next day.   4ware is just fine as it is without perception enhancements.

Deadmau5 is amazing.  He is definitely somebody to watch.  I really like what he has done with Michael Kiwanuka's two last albums.  The Niagara Falls boy has depth.

I was once at a Kraftwerk concert and there was a silent pause and the stage went dark in the middle of the piece, which seemed appropriate, until it didn't start again and we realized that all their electronics(?) had blown the electrical circuit.

Agreed.  I feel like it's a song that's going nowhere.  If I wanted that, I'd put on a PC RPG and just let my character(s) stand around so I could hear the soundtrack.  Time to PSD for a tune or two and then I'll come back to the main feed.

I don't know which genre Deadmaus is supposed to fall into--trance? house?--but his music likely pursues a certain goals. It's oriented towards dance and immersion in a beat. It's not Beethoven or Leonard Cohen or Neko Case but it's fun and good for workouts or studying or working 

Not every artist has to create music that promotes "artistic value." Enjoy the track or PSD.
