Nice

this week in: "Stay off my lawn, you damn kids" - we feature A Guy Called Gerald.

haha yes what a legend

Gloves are off. He's got a point though, that mouse. The studio's where the work is done and the magic's created. The live stuff is a celebration of that but there's still skill in working the room, building the set etc. Maybe DeadMau5's been doing so much of it, he's started taking it for granted. Some things are better kept to yourself though.

maybe someone should make a battle track talkin' mad shit about the other producer - like the famous east coast vs. west coast rap wars from the 90s... DJ gangs, violence, murder. Since the gloves are off, it's time to start placing bets on who murders who in this intense and ultimately important situation we're now faced with.

Ha ha ha. Gangsta electro house.

time to follow steps of swedish house mafia

its obvious that gerald is challenging sneak's late reign...

Deadmau5 = hypocrite - https://twitter.com/Akeel85

"Im just so sick of hearing the “NO!!! IM NOT JUST DOING THIS, I HAVE 6 TABLES UP THERE AND I DO THIS THIS AND THIS” like… honestly. who gives a fuck? i dont have any shame in admitting that for “unhooked” sets.. i just roll up with a laptop and a midi controller and “select” tracks n hit a spacebar. ableton syncs the shit up for me… so no beatmatching skill required. “beatmatching” isnt even a fucking skill as far as im concered anyway. so what, you can count to 4. cool. i had that skill down when i was 3, so dont give me that argument please."

Wow he comes across as a tosser.

While I understand where Gerald is coming from his response just comes off as bitter. While Deadmaus5 is not someone I would seek out and listen to he does have a point. Ultimately all these people are producing and playing dance music.

the funniest thing was whoever made the deadrat6 tracks, to show how basic and formulaic deadmaus tracks were;

I just honestly dont see why people still take notice of this buffoon, dude is a fucking talentless wahoo.

old dudes need to chill or they end up looking sad & bitter. The mouse kid makes a lot of sense there and at least he is being honest about what he does...dont like his music but good on him.

Hmmm. Is it not a little contemptuos towards your paying audience that you put no effort in?

nahh gerald should shut the fuck up. deadmau5 is spot on here sorry old BITCH

also dj sneak is a fat retard lol

except deadmau5 doesn't "put no effort in". he is a technically well versed producer and most of his new tracks are pretty impressive to listen to. his new single "the veldt" is freaking sick, i'd love to see a guy called autist create anything close to that

lmao guy called gerald just got ignored

Don't see why Guy called Gerald even gives a toss about this non issue. This sounds like a when I was a kid we had to program beats uphill, both ways! More specific hate? Deadrat is training wheels music. Guy Called Gerald is not.

right.. you're a goddamn moron

this.

bro you listen to art department shut the fuck up lmao

hey wings ! you and the mouse are mall rats with your commercial bull crap and as big davy joyce say " your a dirty squeaky innocent fool" " ya rat poisoned bast&*d" !

Yes because producing techno, house,& dnb before anyone in Toronto knew that shit existed doesn't make A Guy Called Gerald an authority in these matters

http://youtu.be/5ADoBW0c-18

coming from someone who says deadmau5 makes great music...that sure hit the spot there bud,
i still stand corrected, you're a goddamn fucking moron.

SORRY, HE'S NOT RELEVANT ANYMORE. it doesn't make him an "authority" in shit. so what, he made it first great. then he stagnated and became irrelevant. who even gives a fuck about a guy called gerald today oh man gee i love listening to 80's throwback acid house in 2012

lmao

sure thing gera you ugly faggot

Can we not, please.

Quickly turning ugly here...

hai guyz, his new single "the veldt" is freaking sick!

"Anyone hating any genre of music simply doesn't know the context in which its meant to be enjoyed." - Madeon just served you all a cockmeat sandwich.

LOL did i hurt your feeling that much that you had to make a gif out of my photo? you're a hurting fuck

LEL

it is O.K. to be upset at deadmau5 and hate him (even though hating deadmau5 isn't trendy anymore) but to deny his production ability/talent is delusional

So Deadmau5's real name is Joel Zimmerman and Gerald says:

"The only button you and people like you are interested in pushing is a nuke for the Palestinians".

That's some fucked up territory to be straying into. If he has a problem with Deadmau5 as a musician fine. Deadmau5 has a big mouth too. But Gerald should keep his criticism within the realm of music.

AGCG called out Deadmau5 for pretending to be putting in effort in playing a show when he's clearly not. Unfortunately most of the fans are tools and you are an idiot if you think AGCG can't produce something close to Deadmau5. Do you know a classic album called "Black Street Technology"? Probably not.

I'm not a fan out Deadmau5 myself. He comes across as arrogant and has a lot of audacity towards djing, and his music is fairly cheesy.

But at the same time though, some of the stuff A guy called Gerald says in this post is a little bit outlandish ha.

"The only button you and people like you are interested in pushing is a nuke for the Palestinians"

whats that all about ha

Wow! I haven't yet seen this word anywhere on RA before until now. I don't think you're intelligent enough for this community. Please leave.

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[4] The noun troll may refer to the provocative message itself, as in: "That was an excellent troll you posted."

Deadmau5 has to much to gain from saying the things he says..im my opinion he is a cunt.

Albeit a cunt with money and cunt followers.

This is way out of control and may be the latest trolled topic worthy of some account suspensions and some "internet usage" counseling. It's not that serious. This extra activity outside of something that really means nothing to no one outside of the two "professionals" spat is whack. For the one who really tried too hard at annoying just about everyone: Stop insulting and provoking people with just about everything you want to offend with. Look at your life and be mindful of the fact that you have a real identity outside of this forum. You're making yourself look stupid, immature, bored and lost.

agreed, i don't really post much but when someone like proangelwings starts spewing shit around the forum someone needs to call him out on it. There is no reason to disrespect a bunch of known dj's even if he doesn't like them.

I'll just pretend I didn't read this thread...

i am very sorry for ruining your resident advisor 4 kidz experience you baby back bitch

music aside...deadmau5 seems completly detestable.

this is all kinda pathetic...

deadmaus is some kind of media-constructed entity with management, marketing, lighting, graphic design, mastering, booking, EVERYTHING fucking guaranteed for every release or tour he does, and he's whining about how hard it is to actually play music.

gerald has decades of experience and he's writing angry blogs instead of inventing jungle 3.0.

and here on RA we get to watch another teenager spread his swear word wings for the first time.

how about the musicians get back to making music and everybody else have enough optimism NOT to pick a side? we're all self-published now... have some quality control.

The facts of the matter there wasn't a single valid point in that entire tirade. He's just being a bitter hater. But of course since we're on Resident Advisor everyone's going to ignore that and say good on him for sticking it to Deadmau5.
