deadmau5 "4x4=12" [2010]

OK, skip over the bad math skills, which is clearly a ploy to distract us all from the "music" within this compilation (if robots farting can indeed be considered "music"), and consider the aural contents: somehow deadmau5 found a way to make programmed loops sound pretentious. Perhaps that's worth consideration in some other way than clicking on the icon and placing it in the picture of your garbage can, but not if you're looking for an enjoyable night on the town. Perhaps a vacuous person on the right amount of X, speed and flavored vodka might find something to dance to here, but anyone else is going to be annoyed beyond belief and into despair, finding themselves plugging the jukebox at the corner dive and sadly dancing to Yaz's "Upstairs at Eric's," recognizing finally their best years are way behind them -- even the young people. Take your cue from the Mickey Mouse get-up minus the cuddly felt: it may be disguised as entertainment, but it's really The Terminator. (BTW, has deadmau5 signed with Disney yet?)
