I told Cwapface not to register me with a title that said I am a faggot but he did it anyway because he likes to tell the truth.

100% right.

Deadmau5's album is seriously banal and sterile.

Nearly all of his music is banal and sterile, apart from a couple very early tracks (which incidentally haven't aged well at all).

Some choice quotes in here.

In a technical sense, his music is great. His sounds, mixing and mastering are as tight as they come. Similar to Skrillex in that respect (amazing sound design).

That said, good sound design a good track does not make.

Edit: Example A of an amazing track with poor sound design and mixing / mastering, but still better than anything Deadmau5 has released in years.

I don't have PM's Het so I'll have to continue this derail (for the moment).

I mentioned this in the Techno/Tech-House/whatever thread and I feel it's relevant to this discussion:

Problem is currently that some of these 'Super' genres encompass many of the smaller cross-over genres that have emerged in the last few years.

For instance, Julio Bashmore. With our current thread structure, would he be UK Bass or House / Techno?

How about this Duke Dumont track?

So here's a fresh EP (came out on the 20th) preview from Figgy, dudes from New York and has got a beautiful sound I hope more people head this way. The first three tracks are pretty alright but when the last preview came out, I had to get the tune cause it blew me away.
