We are only one day into the New Year and we already have twitter drama on our hands, as the Deadmau5 vs Marshmello controversy continues into 2017.
Except this time, it\’s more so of the Mellowing complaining about Deadmau5\’s performance at Decadence Arizona this past New Year\’s Eve.
When the Decadence festival organizers announced its lineup where Deadmau5 was scheduled to perform right before Marshmello, the electronic music community was in full anticipation of the potential dispute that would undoubtedly rise, given the history between the two.
Deadmau5, the unorthodox non-mainstream artist he is, presented Decadence fans with a techno-infused set with masterworks like his own \’Imaginary Friends\’ and Maceo Plex\’s \’Solar Detroit\’, which apparently was presumed by the Mellogang as \”boring\”.
The dissatisfied Mello fans took to social media to complain about the Mau5head\’s performance with all sorts of negative comments, stating that his set was \”garbage\”, \”75 minutes of bullshit\”, and countless more.
Joel Zimmerman, the no-f**ks given humanoid he is, hilariously hit back at the ridiculous outrage with his classic sarcastic humor, once again reassuring the dance community that he really does not give a f**k what you have to say about him.
Will the Mau5 v Mello beef ever come to rest?
Perhaps acknowledging that not all great electronic music is rap verses over trap beats and heavy drops would be a step in the right direction.
Check out the thread of tweets below.
