Well that beat's gonna be fucking insane. Check out the little tiff between Skrillex and Deadmau5 below.
Deadmau5 [on Skrillex]:
"Even Skrillex [a friend of Zimmerman’s] isn't doing anything too technical. He has a laptop and a MIDI recorder, and he's just playing his shit ... People are, thank God, smartening up about who does what – but there’s still button-pushers getting paid half a million. And not to say I’m not a button-pusher. I’m just pushing a lot more buttons.”
Skrillex [response]:
"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," he said. "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," Skrillex added.
