Haven't heard much electronica on RP, but love that this creatively structured song is on here. Long live Radio Paradise! Keep ecclecticizing (yes, that's a word).

Love this! Saw Deadmau5 at the 2010 Olympics celebrations in Vancouver. First real introduction to DJs. Amazing show. I'm totally good with more Electronic/DJ/Dance/Trance stuff on RP!
Time to get up!

To me you sound like someone who just watched an amazing drum solo and said "I can do that" before slapping your hands on your thighs several times and saying "see, the exact same thing!"
When I was in high school, we had what was then a cutting edge synth that we messed around with. There was no instruction manual, they just let us have at it. We used to make noise exactly like this, and we thought it was so cool. Maybe I can see the appeal if you're in a club and just need a beat to dance to without wanting to think thru the drug haze, but I don't understand listening to it on the radio. To each her own, different strokes, takes all kinds etc. Rock on.

Good name. One can only hope ...
Working on a spreadsheet. Am aware of electronica bumpa-bumpa in the background. Am puzzled in passing. Minutes pass...this seems...repetitive. After what seems like an hour...OMG WHAT *IS* THIS?? Open my browser window for the express purpose of hitting the "skip" button...

I LOVE Deadmau5!
The opening is the best part. It owes a debt of gratitude to Jean Michel Jarre
NO POUNDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like how the top comments on controversial songs are always the just best responses to other people not liking the song

That is just so bad. Everything from Scooter (Eurotrash) is better than this. Get over it, Americans, this is by far the worst electronic music ever.
All that's missing is a surgically-enhanced 'entertainer' spinning around a pole.

Agreed
Interesting tune
As soon as this tune came on I headed immediately to the comments section. I figured a few heads would be exploding. Kinda reminds me of the "death before disco" days. Looks like comments are pretty equally split, so Bill must be doing something right, keeping' it eclectic!

If the volume is not up, you're doing it (listening) wrong!

Part of the music at the end seems lifted from the Akira soundtrack.
Every time the mau5 plays, the volume goes up.
bullshit
Something music has become worse, goes towards commerce. If this continues, the radio will cease to be unique and there will be another massive shit

Most boring electronica ever.
Sorry I really don’t like it.
Really awful
OMG, what is this disgust?
Head banging music, in a good way.
When this plays, can't do nothin else.
Crank it up!

I've seen Deadmau5 with my teenage son a few times. Pretty sure I was one of the oldest folks in attendance:)
Not my first choice in music. But when you gaze across a sea of people, and they are all throbbing to the beat, I totally get it. I don't think you get that same level of audience cohesion at a typical rock show.
Crank it up and enjoy the drop!

Techno is an abomination.
C'mon RP - Have you had a brain-fart or something?

Not sure I've ever heard computer-generated sound (music?), but this seems like something generated using a program. Which is to say, it lacks the influence of human-generated spark. Just my notion.

This is a good headphones tune.
There is "Austrian Apparel" if you want to listen to good Eurocore as well.

Maybe Bill sometimes just puts our tolerance limit to the test.

This is getting quite tiresome.
Surely you have more dance music to play other than this track.

Despite all the reasons to not like this, I really enjoy it - guilty pleasure? YouTube puts together a nice playlist of his songs.
It's ok, its a bit long. Seven minutes of the same electronic stuff; while quite mindless and easy to work to, it just feels like someone messing around with their synthesizer, nothing really new here.
dreadful nonsense
this reminds me of getting a good high on in beautiful Amsterdam and then hearing this nonsense everywhere, almost. thank God for Cafe 420

Just uprated this as there is a time and place for this and it just hit a sweet spot with me. Good driving music! "It was the music honestly officer..."
Greetings to all and to the Radioparadise Team :-) Live long and prosper :-)
Enough, already!
I so want to like this, but I'm not sure I really do. And I so want to NOT like it, but I'm not sure about that either.
What I really do like is the fact that RP plays eclectic music, so I never get bored.
Thanks, Bill.

I like a lot of the other Deadmau5 songs played here, but this doesn't bring a lot to the table.
Eurotrash
eclectic WTF
This "song" is about 7:35 too long
just down rated from a 2 to a 1

Try thinking of hand sanding a floor instead of dance disco. Works for me. <8
It doesn't really fit into the usual RP style but I like it anyway. Very nice every now and then.

Definitely not. It seems you haven't hear Gogol Bordello - Pala Tute yet...
P.S. Love this Deadmau5 track, rating 10.
I wonder what happened to dead mice 1,2,3 and 4.. was it fratricide? the cat?
This track is almost irritating. Others from Deadmau5 are more enjoyable, imho.
Designed for/by monkeys.
Well, it was about the time of the evening (3:15am) when I would be dancing to music like this in the clubs in SF about 30 years ago...

I also don't listen to RP for the RnR tracks, they bore me and sometimes there are long stretches of them. I happily PSD if I can. But I guess everybody will find something here they don't like or even dislike intensily. Isn't it weird though that we keep listening despite this? :-)
I know it’s not universally popular with listeners but I for one am enjoying the odd Deadmau5 and Bob Moses track that’s finding its way into the playlist!
To answer the question: Do any RP listeners like DeadMau5
On occasion, in measured doses. It changes the mood a bit. After all, isn't RP classed as eclectic.
And besides that, it's like traffic lights. No one likes them but they only last a few minutes then you're on your way.

I frequently log on to RP to vent my disdain about hearing Deadmau5 - and some other EDM artists. (I'm also quick to compliment great finds, gems and relics from the past or new discoveries... i'm not just a complainer.)
Question is this.... do any RP listeners actualy like Deadmau5? I see its rated as a 6 in aggregate.
Thanks Bill for being so eclectic.... Maybe you're goal is to actually help us appreciate GOOD music that much more.
I guess.

Not my cuppa. It's like Jean Michel Jarre Lite with a surplus of cliches, mediocre melodies and a rhythm machine set to 'repeat'.
