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 disturbing.
and for that reason, I am out
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.
Just no.
I'm getting older (64), but never too old for the odd pumping tune. Crank it!

My honest opinion...... Naaaaaaa not RP level of music

I had a girlfriend from Mongolia. She used to make a special kind of Mongolian dumplings. I helped make them once and every time I would screw one up she would say "That's what we call a dead mouse"

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

I wish I had some coke or meth , or X, or whatever, to make this enjoyable beyond the first minute...

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.

i dont mind electronic music as long it is music and its containig some creativitiy - but this is pure annoyment

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.

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.
8/10

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.

Hmm. Only played once in the last 30 days on RP.

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'.

Working on stats and numbers late in the day, so this is energizing me in a mindless kind of way - Me likee!
Really?! I think that RP is not a good place for EDM music. So far from your playlists....
Was just about to walk away from my desk but now I find myself wanting to listen to this track.
Thanks for the change of pace, Bill!

segue into some Jarre. Take these kids to school
I have to stay late and work on graphics. Like this to work by...
Big Jean Michel Jarre influence, especially on the gorgeous intro. Then.................the decline. Like a train run outta steam.

Good morning from Central Canada Bill, yes Canada, Deadmou5 ville. The operative word in my greeting is MORNING. I know you're somewhere out on the left coast and your audience spans the globe, but .... what a HORRIBLE thing to wake up to on a nice snowy Sunday morning in the Laurentian Mountains of Quebec.
Not sure if I should be getting a coffee or bottle service......

Maybe its a Canadian thing, but yes, couldn't agree more...RP is RP because its inclusive...I love the odd immediate left turn, EDM then banjos...its the surprise that's fun...the whole idea of "eclectic"....

Maybe EDM artists like Deadmau5 is an acquired taste, but don't you think many people say the same thing about Tom Waits? Or Morphine? Or Mozart? RP has a pretty broad playlist and is very inclusive of basically all genres. "Eclectic" is the word & that concept encompasses this artist too! :-)

Electronica in the mix is fine. Howzabout Jarre and Kraftwerk, Sparks. Yello, Less tedious.

Sorry Bill, this is just wrong.
Deadmau5 and all the other uber DJ's have one venue. Dance Clubs. 1000's of people, bottle service, high rollers and posers.
The music makes some sense there..... and most other EDM makes sense there (like it or not)
Makes no sense in my living room.

Oh My ! On Radio Paradise ? TOP !!! I briefly thought I had changed channel... what a surprise to hear them here :)
RP, you continue surprise me-thank you. 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!
