Deadmau5 Says DJ's Are "All Fucking Cunts"



Taken from an Irish Newspaper:
Red hot Canadian producer deadmau5 hits Irish shores this weekend but local DJ's better keep out of his way. 

the five times Beatport award winner told Clubmix in an explosive interview that he HATES DJ's and think they're all fucking cunts. 

deadmau5, pronounced 'dead mouse'. said he will only perform live shows of his own music and think DJ's should be extinct. he says, "it puts me to fucking sleep to be quite honest, i don't really see the technical merit in playing two songs at the same speed together and it bores me to fucking tears and hopefully, with all due respect to the DJ type that will fucking go the way of the dinosaur, id like them to disafuckingpear". 

Joel continued, "its so middle man, they're like fucking lawyers you need them, but they're fucking cunts. god bless them, they're my number one customer right so I'm not gonna go diss every fucking dj, but to say you've become this massive up on a podium performer by playing other peoples productions at the same speed as someone else productions and fading between the two of them, I don't get it."

DJ AM & Travis Barker Critically Injured In Plane Crash

WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. - Hours after performing for thousands of South Carolina college students, former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and celebrity DJ AM were critically injured in a fiery Learjet crash that killed four people, authorities said Saturday.

Officials said the plane carrying six people was departing shortly before midnight Friday when air traffic controllers reporting seeing sparks. The plane hurtled off the end of a runway and crashed through antennas and a fence. It came to rest on an embankment across a five-lane highway and was engulfed in flames, said Debbie Hersman, a member of the National Transportation Safety Board.

Barker and DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, were in critical condition at a burn center in Augusta, Ga., about 75 miles southwest of Columbia, hospital spokeswoman Beth Frits said.

Two other passengers — Chris Baker, 29, of Studio City, Calif., and Charles Still, 25, of Los Angeles — died, as did pilot Sarah Lemmon, 31, of Anaheim Hills, Calif., and co-pilot James Bland, 52, of Carlsbad, according to the county coroner. Baker was an assistant to Barker and Still was a security guard for the musician.

The plane was headed for Van Nuys, Calif. It is owned by Global Exec Aviation, a California-based charter company, and was certified to operate last year, Hersman said. The company said it had no immediate comment.

At the crash site Saturday, the air was still heavy with the odor of jet fuel. A trail of black soot led off a runway. The nose of the aircraft was gone and the roof was missing from two-thirds of the charred plane.

"It's absolutely terrible and tragic," Columbia Mayor Bob Coble said.

Barker and Goldstein had performed together under the name TRVSDJ-AM at a free concert in Columbia on Friday night. Event sponsor T-Mobile said their hour-long set ended at about 7:15 p.m.

The show, which included performances by former Jane's Addiction singer Perry Farrell and singer Gavin DeGraw, drew 10,000 people into the streets of Five Points, the neighborhood near the University of South Carolina, Coble said.

Peter Kastis, Farrell's manager, said he and Farrell didn't find out about the crash until they arrived at the airport Saturday morning to find it closed.

"I just hugged them hello less than 24 hours ago. I wish I could hug them now," Kastis said.

One concertgoer said TRVSDJ-AM's performance was unique and different.

"It was literally one of the best shows I've ever seen," said Brett Flashnick, a freelance photographer who works for The Associated Press and attended the concert for a local newspaper.

Barker, 32, was one of the more colorful members of the multiplatinum-selling punk rock band Blink-182, whose biggest album was 1999's CD "Enema of the State," which sold more than five million copies in the United States alone.

After Blink-182 disbanded in 2005, Barker went on to form the rock band (+44) — pronounced "plus forty-four." He also starred in the MTV reality series "Meet the Barkers" with former Miss USA Shanna Moakler, to whom he was married at the time. The show documented the former couple's lavish wedding and life. Their later split, reconciliation and subsequent break up made them tabloid favorites.

Goldstein is a popular DJ for hire who at one time was engaged to Nicole Richie.

He spun a mix of hip-hop and dance beats for the hottest nightclubs and had a string of dates set up for the next few weeks. He reached the peak of his celebrity perhaps during his highly publicized romance with Richie a few years ago.

DJ AM also dated singer/actress Mandy Moore, and while he became a gossip favorite for his romances, he drew respect from music aficionados for his DJ skills.

Barker and Goldstein performed as part of the house band at the MTV Video Music Awards earlier this month.

+ Atomic Hooligan Remix
+ Rico Tubbs Bonus Beats Mix (Digital only)
Menu012 - 12” & Digital release

RELEASE DATE: SEPT 22nd 2008

Menu’s latest offering is nothing short of an international sparing match of epic proportions. On the A side, you have the dynamic, hit making pairing of Lady Waks (Russia) & Hardy Hard (Germany) alongside the man credited with inventing Hip Hop Afrika Bambaataa (USA). Then on the flip you have a remix from Menu Music co-boss men and globetrotting fly boys Atomic Hooligan (UK). Then as a special gift for all you beat hungry heads, there is a bonus beat Baltimore work out from Rico Tubbs (Finland). Would you expect any less from Menu.... at this point in the game, you would be foolish too.

“Shake It” has been doing the business for about 6 months now. Tried and tested by the best to great results across the world. Think Breakbeat, Hip Hop, Miami Bass and Techno Grooves squished together in a shot glass, set on fire then swallowed back by a crowd of 5000 punters in St. Petersburg, and you have something that comes close to the energy of this track.

Then flip it over for a classic Hooligan - half breaks half house punching bag session. Then for you digital heads, we have a Rico Tubbs short but sweet bonus beats for you. In typical Rico style this is straight up bang, boom beats and samples. Do not miss out.

Atomic Hooligan, Jay Cunning, Deekline, Stanton Warriors, Rennie Pilgrim, Rico Tubbs, Lady Waks, Drammatic Twins, Boogie Army, Westbam, Freestylers.
General Midi “All 3 mixes are KILLER!”
