Following his infamous Ultra Music Festival performance, deadmau5 decided it would be a good idea to live stream 2 hours of what he calls a “live full on techno-actual-good-music set”. Live streamed via his live.deadmau5.com site, Joel offered his paying fans 120 minutes of pure good music, free of top 40 beatport charters, Animals, and Levels. If you’re only into electronic music for the one note festival drops and the girls then this is not for you. But if you’re in it for the masterful transitions, the technical builds and never ending drop lacking progression, then this my friend is for you. Sit back, relax and enjoy deadmau5 at his very best!
I love that people are hating on this. This is true electronic music sound. Live mixing, no pre recorded, push the button, wait for the “drop” bullshit. It takes a solid understanding of electronic music production to fully appreciate the sounds of techno and the like. Please stay at the main stage noobs, this music is far too good for you to ever understand and or appreciate. You literally are not worthy.
Music is music eh? Like art is art? No room for discussion?
This really is TRUE techno. If you don’t know what it is (or you don’t like it… and quite frankly, anyone who knows what this is doesn’t really care) so be it.
I don’t care what anyone’s personal preferences are, but suggesting there is some universal yardstick to measure quality music against is missing the point, fundamentally.
I personally think this is full on quality and true the style!
If you think it’s shit… move along…
i love deadmau5
Elliot Sachs the term “masterful transitions” is offensive in reference to this mix.
just a few the awful trainwrecks from this set: 38:42, 42:45, 56:15, and on and on..
not saying the songs he played were shit, some were pretty cool.. but you can’t seriously say this is good mixing, it’s amateur at best.. check out digweed or coxy or dubfire for good mixing mate!
So many know it all’s in here. haha Don’t need to get into it because some times i am on that level too. Mainly because i have been listening to techno and any other electronic genre for over 15 years. This is a mix on the fly and you make mistakes but if you really know producing and djing you know mau5 is taking it on another level then 98% of the people djing. Some exceptions that have already been mentioned. dubfire , sebatian leger just to name two people. Anyways some times you just gotta step back and enjoy the tunes. Thats what the music is about. Did i mention mau5 actually killed this one? Fuck i wish he played like this all the time!
I prefer Animals
He looks like he’s having a fun time. the wiggle dance is cute. If he’s having fun doing it then its fun to watch and listen too.
Haters can hate. I like it! Deadmau5 is good. No two ways about it.
Bring back the vinyl
Train A meet Train B
The Mau5 was a huge contributor to the creation of today’s “EDM” scene he seems so keen on ripping on all the time, he practically invented the term.
If he’s gonna keep playing the hipster card, he needs to own the fact that he was a huge part of that, otherwise he needs to keep his mouth shut
I like the multiple dial twisting at multiple times. Probably half of them ain’t doing anything but… deadmau5 can do whatever he wants. He is rich.
This is shit
Holy fuck, there are a lot of retarded fucking people in here
OMG… He is actually… Nope still sucks!
I thought this was my son Isaac. Really…the music, the movements, all but the tattoos .
Do you even have gear bro?
People bitching about a guy having fun at home and sharing with us. Too much
Great stuff Joel! Thanks! Made the morning for me!
LOVE that he finished with Orca.
Love it! The legend at work. He even trolls the techno heads half way through with a ridiculous amount of echo/delay.. Only deadmau5 can get away with this shit and make it still slick as aviciis lips after blowing off the Swedish house mafia
The direction he’s going in is fuckin epic in my opinion.
Oh yes, this is “good music” in the same league as Miles Davis and Led Zeppelin. Electronic music fans and producers need to get off their collective high horse, this is made for fun and shouldn’t be overanalyzed like high art.
deadmau5 being an egocentrical prick is just all apart of who he is and his whole persona & his music. If you dont like him or his sarcastic troll behavior then fuck off and go listen to Beatport Top 10 kooks.
is it just me or is he using his cell phone in place of a cd deck? no problem with that just think its kinda funny, go technology lol. not very far into listening to it but sounds amazing so far
Sounds like a bunch of techno haters. When done right techno can be beautiful and fun as fuck. Deadmau5 or not…this is good techno.
is it just me or is he using his cell phone in place of a cd deck? no problem with that just think its kinda funny, go technology lol
Look at all that fucking analog gear!!!
Did you see him doing coke the whole time?
Lol nope, not free of Levels! Bahah 😛 this is sick though
VERY IMPRESSIVE
Trap>mau5 it’s the mau5trap!
shout out to coca-cola lol
epic joel! love this
I don’t always listen to techno. But when I do, I enter a trance and can’t stop listening to it.
I wonder what it would do to throw some “HE DOESN’T HAVE HEADPHONES SO ITS PRE-RECORDED AND JUST AS FAKE AS YOUR FAKE GUETTA AND ETC” -comment into this ocean of hatred and stupid opinions about “right music”…
