Controversies

In December 2007, Marcus Schossow, Maor Levi and Dj Eco[10] created a project named Deadrat6 as a joke on Deadmau5, claiming his tracks sound alike.[10] A similar faux project was also created under the name of Sinterklaa5.[11]. As a counter-move, Deadmau5 created a track under the artist name "Marcus Fatsow",[12].

The rivalry between Deadmau5 and Schossow escalated at an event in April 2008 in Oslo, where, according to Marcus Schossow, Deadmau5 refused to play at a club if Marcus Schossow was going to play afterward. This led to Marcus Schossow being refused entry and made the night a Deadmau5 solo event.[13]

In an October 2008 interview with the Irish Daily Star Deadmau5 was quoted as follows:

“It puts me to fucking sleep, to be quite honest; I don’t really see the technical merit in playing two songs at the same speed together and it bores me to fucking tears and hopefully, with all due respect to the DJ type that will fucking go the way of the dinosaur, I'd like them to dis-a-fucking-pear! It's so middle man, they’re like fucking lawyers! You need them, but they’re fucking cunts. God bless them, they’re my number one customer right, so I’m not gonna go dis every fucking DJ. But to say you become this massive, "up on a podium" performer by playing other peoples productions, at the same speed as someone else's productions and fading between the two of them, I don’t get it...”[14]

Joel apologized for this comment on November 4, 2008. He explained that the interview was bad, and that it did not express his opinion about DJs correctly:

"let me start by admitting…. i did not grow up in the EDM scene. I dont [sic] consider my career to be about “being a DJ”. i dont [sic] have “DJ roots”. I never had any intention of becoming a DJ. and my conception of “DJ’s” [sic] in general from this standpoint has always been... being forced into some nightclub when i would have rather stayed home, and watch some dood mash the “play / stop” button and occaisionally [sic] move a pitch slider. Love it or hate it... that’s just been my conception of the traditional “dj”. Mind you, im [sic] not a total fucking idiot, and i recognize talent when i see it... and there are many talented DJ’s [sic] out there for sure. In my eyes, those would be the individuals who utilize technology to deliver the music in ways that are both skillful and innovate, moreso [sic] than my vision of the “play/stop/pitch” DJ. To me, the club is about “the party”... the people make the night... the DJ obviously needs to use that to his advantage, it’s give and take."[15]

Nieuwe album van die gast, alleen heeft hij een irritant promotie jingle erin gegooid

Ik vind z'n producties best okay, maar het stuk van zn set op Extrema Outdoor wat ik gezien heb vond ik redelijk waardeloos

hij was redelijk waardeloos op 5daysoff.. Het begon goed,maar op een gegeven moment was hij zo dronken dat hij alleen nog maar bagger draaide en volle blikjes bier het publiek in gooide.
