Skrillex Speaks Out About Deadmau5's "We All Push Play" Comment
 

Skrillex has commented on Deadmau5's "we all press play" comment to The Daily Beast.

Skrillex

Listen, I’m proud of what I do and this is not directed towards Deadmau5 personally, but if you’re going to denounce something you’re a part of… the thing about DJing is it’s a platform to create a vibe,” says Skrillex. “It’s all about creating an effect. The Ramones played fuckin’ four chords. It’s about the emotion, the movement, the music you create. The ‘pushing buttons’ criticism is just missing the point. You could invalidate anything if you wanted to.

Don't like his music, but he always seems like a very rational person in his interviews

Don't bring The Ramones into this!

he's right. Its not like he just pushes a button and sits back there on stage. Dude puts on a show.

snap!
...wait, i'm told i'm supposed to hate this skrillex person.

Um, this quote is more important


the fuck?

Yes, you're right! The ramones only did play just 4 chords and that never changed music.

When did deadmau5 make those comments?

also, "blasted" is the wrong word, he responded pretty nicely

Nopenopenopenopenopenope. Seriously no I don't want this.

Biting the hand that feeds Sonny? Not sure if this is a "blast" against Deadmau5 but it doesn't sound too nice.

Wasn't he on Deadmau5' label?

Well said
