    deadmau5 is not just a random EDM artist, so much of what he did, said on streams, it's way more than just music he makes. He is 3D artist, an engineer, streamer, business leader, consultant, end-to-end producer...... He legitimately has given me useful advice, made tons of jokes I would laugh a lot. He understand music industry like no one (publicly) shows. I have learned so much about copyright, random info about analogs just watching his streams. It's insane how much he knows, what successful team be built. It's impossible to compare to anyone honestly. His music begun as a "counter-culture" to fun and uplifting house music and electro of 90s' and 2000s, and hit with Faxing Berlin, a lull, melancholic track... and it HIT THE RIGHT SPOT!
    P.S. I see you got that PRYDA album! Fun fact: Joel and Eric are good friends and respect each other a lot. I love Eric's music, too.

      Yes Deadmau5 has been a favorite of mine since my youth! I still always jam to the remix he did of Medina (You and i). It is still one of the best vocal prog house tracks to date. :)
      I explored deep into his catalog of music for such a long time. Also a huge fan of his darker "Testpilot" alias.
      Speaking of him and Eric Prydz, I also love the b2b live sets they did together back then.
      Thank you for your comment GOOD STUFF! 🔥👊

Those normies are the drug junkies that only go there to dress almost naked and get high while making videos and pics for their instagram page to get likes.

    The progression in this track is fuckin legendary. Like you said it really takes you on a journey. The way the intro builds up, slowly introducing each layer which all harmonically fit together like a sandwich from heaven. Then it somehow manages to transition to the main part where it’s not very layered at all, yet the layers that are present are so full that they fill up the mix perfectly. And lets not even start about that build up, that’s how you’re supposed to do an EDM buildup instead of the repeating kick gradually getting faster. Yessir, this song is a certified hood classic

    I saw deadmau5 for the first time live back in 2019, I actually went to both of the shows he played in my city - one being on New Year's Eve 2019, going into 2020...At that time I had been a fan for pretty much a decade, ever since I was a young kid. I almost cried when he performed this song...I waited nearly a decade to see, let alone hear him perform this masterpiece live! Staring up at the cube with this song playing, especially building up to the drop, felt amazingly mesmerizing. I wish I could go back...

    • @py_a_thon
      @py_a_thon Před rokem +2

      Melodic Techno is not dance music by default. The influences are multispectrum. One of the strongest influences is definitely symphonic/cinematic flavors.
      The sound just so happens to overlap with dance music.
      The 2 drops in this song are perfect imo. The first is off beat and in pocket, and perhaps even out of key with the reverb. (Personally, I call that effect a "melodic reverb/noise wall".)
      The main drop is a perfect crescendo. The dissonance of the first drop as a memory combines with the perfect cascade of the full spectrum sound.
      This is a perfect song.
