That's a great way of putting it. A less flattering way I've seen it is deadmau5 being "the Donald Trump of EDM." He definitely used Twitter in a similar way and got into so much shit for it over the years. They'd both benefit if they learned when to shut up or articulate their points better. I'm probably gonna get so much hate for drawing this parallel, but I think it's hilarious.
Dude that Veldt vocals being revealed in real time to Deadmau5 and it blowing him away is like a historical video. That is crazy AF to catch live and see the actual reaction of Deadmau5 for the first time! Put it in a museum!

@@ImotekhtheStormlord-tx2it Deadmau5 is, without a doubt a controversial dude.

@@JayCryptik Another fun one is that Joel helped make FL Studio into what it is today. He was a prominent user in their extremely early days and would frequent the forum and explain how he used features they had in the program in ways they didn't intend those features to be used and showcased the cool outcomes. Eventually he gained attention from image-line and would just end up asking them to implement features into the next update to streamline the process so users wouldn't have to replicate his steps. I believe image-line eventually flew him out and employed him for a couple years to help them shape what FL Studio would become. He goes in depth on all of it on an episode of the Shawn Ryan Show. It's a 4 hour long episode and it's awesome to listen to if you've got the time to set aside.
I didn't know it was a requirement of big festivals. I think the time spent producing and mixing whatever ends up being the set is the magic. They wouldn't be as big as they are If they couldn't, it's a shame the festivals have that rule.
"Beeing a good DJ" today what does it mean really? I mean, the only people with skills today are people like James Hype, otherwise is just about crowd control and connection with your fanbase, since CDJS and automatic beatmatching appeared being technical has no meaning anymore. Anyone can be a DJ today, an average dj of course. People doesnt care either. They are just ignorant masses who just want to party and have a good time, they don't know their stuff anymore, they dont buy records and stuff....

Real music comes naturally from the desire to make you happy. When I create, I think about the moments when the listener will feel what I feel, I never know what will come out, first I create music and then I look for words. Good Music Doesn't Need Words
Now let's flip this on it's head. sometimes creating real music is like pulling teeth and comes from the desire to express the pain that you feel, regardless of what the audience thinks. First I start with a poem and a title, and I meticulously work my way back to a melody. Sometimes in order to express a precise message it requires words. I think this still checks out. I don't think it's good to be absolutist in the creative process.
There’s a huge difference between pre recorded and pre planned set. Pre recorded is you literally record the whole set and just click play. Pre planned is when you have songs set with cues and know when to transition. Your visual team also assigns lights for every instance of the show.
@@neoconnor4395 yeah, ive heard mixed things about it. Ied like to see him go deep into his production tricks and techniques and the whys of what he does. Esp reverb placement and movement, limiter settings, gating, etc

Hey man, just wanted to let you know. There’s been 2 artists that’s changed my life. First, Faithless as a kid opened my mind to electronic music & the second was you, it was you man… Thank you.
I played EDC in 2023 and did the whole thing live. It was not pre-recorded and all the visuals and lasers were also played live by a visuals team. FWIW.
Nice shot at Reaper! Love it, can be complicated, but the more you use it and the deeper you go, the more exponentially powerful it becomes…price tag vs power/capability is unbelievable… Especially for budget minded producers… I personally use Reason 12 ReWired to Reaper, that’s just my cup of tea, to each his own😎🎵🎹
"Twiddle filter knobs and clap" lmao. This is exactly what it is. It's funny how few people realize DJs dont really do much on stage. Some DJs do more, but a lot of the time they're just pressing play and fiddling with knobs. Even if someone is actually mixing, it's fuckin easy to mix two songs together! Especially nowadays with the technology that shows you waveforms and will even auto sync the tracks. And I guess it doesn't really matter, if someone produces their own music then at least they did that. It's not a performable type of music and it was made in a computer so it can't be recreated live in real time like an acoustic band. So fuck it, let's just enjoy the songs on a loud sound system with dope visuals in a huge crowd of hyped up people...and not worry about the guy on stage waving his arms around who isn't doing much lol.
dead" Ableton so bad ... btw watch me only ever using that while using it in the same way you would use FL studio with multi tracks ... also, here's Steve, say hi Steve"mau5
@@zf-xi6ds Same. It doesn't matter. If you're not signed then you don't have to worry about the differences between Ableton and FL. Or any other DAW. Plenty of people who aren't DeadMau5 use FL Studio.
When I didnt have my Subscription active to Studio One I downloaded Reaper and Cakewalk to see how I liked them. Personally I prefer Cakewalk over Reaper. The UI for Cakewalk is much better designed and the compatibility with Plugins is just as solid as Studio One. Honestly its just all what you are comfortable with.
@ Deadmau5 will always be a legend. Anything that comes out of the mans mouth and brain is holy and hilarious. I appreciate his genuine self. Just wish he’d cut back on the drags.
Doesn't matter if you can see the waveforms. The DJ can make unpredictable changes including mistakes. If there is perfect sync at all times, chances are that both visuals and sound are prepared earlier. Which is fine. Just pretending to mix when you aren't mixing is cringe.
@@spiritlevelstudios seeing waveforms in the production booth is useful for exactly that, unpredictability. If the DJ isn't pretaped, and they play a song that doesn't have a visual package, the visual engineers can see where the peaks and dips are in a song by looking at the wave form of what is playing, and loaded to other players. Then they can manually control those visual scenes until the next song with visuals. It was called ShowControl but Pioneer has their own version built in now I believe. Edit: Also, a high percentage of these festival performances are pretaped. Many, many. And they pretend to mix. I've watched the production crew freak out over losing a pretaped set and the DJ was too wasted to actually DJ. A very high profile, Vegas type DJ.
on the Daw Part that's soo true to me... I could not get the hang of FL no matter what I do (even as a veteran). So Ableton, was my saving grace. logic, bitwig and even pro tools I can start something and not be lost.
I always assumed sets were prerecorded 😅 Furthermore, almost every festival I’ve been to, the SPL(chest pounding bass) of each set has gotten exponentially higher until the headliner. Its like the opening acts can only play their sets so loud. Which I guess makes sense. If you’re the headliner you def want to be the loudest at the festival
Omg i love that you said you only play your songs!! I can't stand that everyone plays other people's hits ALL THE TIME!! THANK YOU for sticking to your own!! Man if I gotta hear Titanium one more time!!! Ughhh!!!
Gotta admit sometimes I lose respect for him, then he wins me back with his honesty almost instantly .. pre recorded sets .. never going to visit a show though
Right! What song was that he was playing while speaking with the other gentlemen? Can't find it in the comments, last song I heard by deadmau5 by ear and can call it is probably Exactly or Cheese... Lol I'm a TBI survivor so those titles might be a little bit off as well... Jc... 🤔 Shalom.... 🙏
When he says pre recorded set I don't think they're actually pre-recorded but the dj already has their set list and knows exactly where they're going to mix in and everything for a festival although I'm sure there are djs who do actually record and press play and just mess with the filter knobs/channel effects.

I applaud him for keeping it real & telling people how some of the biggest POP EDM level Festival show performances can at times be prerecorded & how look out for them! very cool & authentic of him... But for clarities sake to ""Performers, signer, or DJs'" if your not mixing live layers of music or singing out of you microphone as a singer & instead playing back a fully prerecorded set & miming like your doing a performance or singing or & just twisting a filter knob & pretending your mixing. Its like any average joe linking up there iPhone to big Bluetooth speaker system playing with EQ settings for the entire mix on their iphone! or in singers case joe is holding a disconnected Microphone & miming like he's singing.... > whether you tricked somebody or NOT ...you have to be performing LIVE for it to be an actual LIVE performance! If you cant f@*k up your MIX cause its all prerecorded Your not a Live performer / "Not a Real DJ" Full Stop! End of Discussion! That said You Might still be An amazing Producer! However you definitely are not a DJ or live performance Artist.
8:02 See I use the Launchpad app, to make music. And half the time I find myself wondering; “am I really making music? Or am I just remaking some thing that’s already been converged?” I enjoy the music I ‘make’, but I don’t feel like its mine… What are all of y’all’s opinion?
i still laugh at the fact that i am friends with people who went to high school with him and said he was the biggest annoying poser in school and always failed to get girls with his mdma hookups
It’s weird that he says that about reaper because that was the first daw I started with, and I found it way easier for what I wanted to do which was just live recording. It did make the switch to ableton easier. FL feels like a whole different beast compared to the two. I’ve honestly had the hardest time picking that one up because the work flow and ui is just so strange. I could see how if you started on fl and only used that you would have a hard time switching to any other daw.
FL seems really similar to Ableton. I've always used FL, but if I had to I'm sure I could jump ship to Ableton, Logic or Cubase fairly quickly. Reason on the other hand seems like a steep learning curve if you maintain the rack view.
I believe he mentioned Reason, not Reaper, which is a much later creation. Reaper is excellent, and much better suited for audio recording than Ableton or FL. The latter ones are more clip/pattern focused.
there is constantly improving software that can sync visuals to music without it having to be prerecorded.....that being said, whatever makes people happy man
4:40 to his point, when I wanted to learn a free DAW I went with reaper after using fl studio for 8 years and struggling to switch. After reaper, working with pro tools and ableton which the rest of my friends use has been MUCH easier

But for clarities sake to ""Performers, signer, or DJs'" if your not mixing live layers of music or singing out of you microphone as a singer & instead playing back a fully prerecorded set & miming like your doing a performance or singing or & just twisting a filter knob & pretending your mixing. Its like any average joe linking up there iPhone to big Bluetooth speaker system playing with EQ settings for the entire mix on their iphone! or in singers case joe is holding a disconnected Microphone & miming like he's singing.... > whether you tricked somebody or NOT ...you have to be performing LIVE for it to be an actual LIVE performance! If you cant f@*k up your MIX cause its all prerecorded Your not a Live performer / "Not a Real DJ" Full Stop! End of Discussion! That said You Might still be An amazing Producer! However you definitely are not a DJ or live performance Artist.
I love FL and Protools for Vocals hahaha
as a career 3D artist hearing Deadmau5 talk about FL as the Zbrush of 3D modeling, I about fell out of my fucking chair laughing. On point!
3:49 😂😂😂 that was funny.
“Moooom!!! Someone gave me a logic file!!!” I spit my coffee. 😅
8:02 See I use the Launchpad app, to make music. And half the time I find myself wondering; “am I really making music? Or am I just remaking some thing that’s already been converged?” I enjoy the music I ‘make’, but I don’t feel like its mine… What are all of y’all’s opinion?
No one can or will arranged it the way you do. Dont ever overthink it just make it
Now ! I cannot leave Fl Studio now ahah !
Lot's of top producers use it still, it's the end product that matters.
his drums are called..... shaker shit, bass crap, actual shake, hatnshit, idunno .... xD
i still laugh at the fact that i am friends with people who went to high school with him and said he was the biggest annoying poser in school and always failed to get girls with his mdma hookups
We can say for certain he did not peek in high school... which is a good thing.
And now hes one of the most legendary dj’s/ producer in the game still for 25 years. Funny how life can change for someone
@@ogdirtweed8411 wow he created computer music that a child can do. ok boomer
@@johnbeetle4340 lets see you do it, put your money where your mouth is
Anytime I watch the video of Deadmau5 hearing the Veldt I always laugh at how he just can't not say anything about the little vocal fx he hates.
It’s weird that he says that about reaper because that was the first daw I started with, and I found it way easier for what I wanted to do which was just live recording. It did make the switch to ableton easier. FL feels like a whole different beast compared to the two. I’ve honestly had the hardest time picking that one up because the work flow and ui is just so strange. I could see how if you started on fl and only used that you would have a hard time switching to any other daw.
FL seems really similar to Ableton.
I've always used FL, but if I had to I'm sure I could jump ship to Ableton, Logic or Cubase fairly quickly.
Reason on the other hand seems like a steep learning curve if you maintain the rack view.
I believe he mentioned Reason, not Reaper, which is a much later creation. Reaper is excellent, and much better suited for audio recording than Ableton or FL. The latter ones are more clip/pattern focused.
i used to watch him all the time back in like '09 on Ustream. Where does he stream most now if ever? Twitch?
Sick video
Thanks!
REAPER for customization is the dream!
Thanks for sharing
No prob!
Faxing Berlin still one of my favs of his
In Scotland he is known as
Deedmoose. 👍🏽🏴
there is constantly improving software that can sync visuals to music without it having to be prerecorded.....that being said, whatever makes people happy man
@5:55 I haven't heard that Rad Racer theme in years!
Sandstorm... Lol! I literally just looked up that song last night after hitting a wall
goated
FL studio is good and all but I personally use mixcraft 10.5 pro studio and when I'm out and about I use cubasis 3
1:11:23 Did Joel ever end up doing the free software production challenge? I'd love to watch him mess around in an open-source tool like LMMS.
4:40 to his point, when I wanted to learn a free DAW I went with reaper after using fl studio for 8 years and struggling to switch. After reaper, working with pro tools and ableton which the rest of my friends use has been MUCH easier
51:36 - 1000%. People that pushing the limits and making the world a better place deserver more attention! thats right!.
