What is the deal with dead mau five?
Is this bland house just normie garbage or am I missing out on something?
Even with drugs in me, I'd rather listen to rimsky-korsakov's scheherezade.
he's an underrated IDM artist
I'm deadly serious
it's kind of about the progressive vibe, I guess you have to be a certain kind of person to be into it
most people just dismiss him as dorito-tier monstercat-core
no, you're spot on with "bland house" and "normie garbage"

>doesn't have the level of intellect to really vibe with his music
deadmau5 never really was any good desu
The only song i ever liked was
"Arguru." Everything else is bland.

No suggestions of better progressive house music. Why am I not surprised.

project 56 is seriously fucking good.
Other than that, there's not much to his stuff.
Enjoyed the shit out of it when I was 14 years old playing minecraft.
Good times.
You only need to look as far as his album names to know how original he is capable of being
"For lack of a better name"

Well guess what?
You're on 4chan, you're not so cool either.
Feel like a big boy now?
he's ok. he's a dick irl but his music isn't bad. he's very good at nice clean production. not that original of an artist though. if you want actual progressive house, just go on RA and look through their recommended albums till you find one tagged "house"

this is great, please keep going
Check out Get Scraped, While 1 < 2, and "stuff i used to do" to get an idea of what else he's capable of aside from 4/4 'bangerz'.
He seems like he managed to back himself into a corner production wise with the label and audience he ended up with. Still manages to experiment here and there which is nice.

he's really good at producing and mixing. the music isn't for everyone but it is definitely well-crafted.

you say deadmau5, i say james holden
repost if you're one of the 2% who still listens to REAL progressive

He seemed exactly the same as Skrillex and I'm not entirely sure he isn't.

why does the entirety of /mu/ shill this bland Jon Hopkins facsimile
I actually enjoyed his music quite a bit in high school.
Saw him live, it was great.
He's not awful.
I find his music frankly very boring, and he's a huge asshole.

Creep is fucking beautiful with it's unsettling atmosphere and that soft nice piano and it's still one of my favourite songs by him

>Jon Hopkins same as James Holden
o i am laffin
he has potential but got stuck with shit house because of the hype he built up. money wins that situation
