Here’s the original post by 3lau:
And apparently he didn’t even get paid and covered his own travel costs:
Lol not getting paid and losing audience. Art of the Deal indeed.
why waste taxpayer dollars
Translation: They offered me the gig with no pay and I was too much of a pussy to negotiate or just, y’know, say no.
Dubstep artists go straight to the gulag
apparently he didn’t even get paid and covered his own travel costs
Holy shit that’s bad. Can’t even try to claim the excuse of “a job is a job” and claiming there’s no politics to it.
He ends that last reply with “no more spending taxpayer dollars, that era is over!” which is a pretty good indication that there very much is politics to it (so I agree with you, but also he isn’t even trying to hide it, so I don’t see him trying to defend himself by pretending he doesn’t support their politics)
That was a good way to round out the original post, which just mentioned the “POTUS team” and pretended like it was acceptable human behavior.
He just couldn’t contain his enthusiasm… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
but the exposure!
I’m sure all those right wing zealots will be lining up to give him lucrative gigs after this. After all, they’re known for their love of edm and the culture surrounding it. They certainly don’t despise everyone in attendance at the average gig (aside from the hot girls on molly they still despise but want to sexually assault)!
The era of being paid for work is over!!
Supposedly, none of the musicians who played at the inauguration were paid for it.
Really tells you about the caliber of these people. Both the artists and the administration.
Well, he was certainly paid with exposure
Remember the good old days when people died of exposure? Pepperidge Farms remembers, and wishes for those days to return.
The era of wasting tax payer dollars is over? I honestly don’t understand how someone is this dumb.
Yeah, those balls are paid for by donating by sympathetic billionaires. It’s the perfect opportunity to demand ridiculous fees because you know they have the money. (If you were inclined to DJ at a Nazi event).
… wasting taxpayer dollars on the poors is over. It needed fixing.
I’ve never heard of 3lau, but fuck that guy. What a bootlicker.
No one heard and no one would.
He had a few songs I liked ~2013-14 but he was cancelled all the way back then for something, I think just being an a$$hole on Twitter if memory serves. Haven’t listened to him since.
Trump received over $170 million in inaugural donations, primarily from companies and the extremely wealthy.
Yet, this artist didn’t get paid?
And the artist believes they were saving “tax payer dollars”?
And the artist seems to be catching blowback from his industry for the association?
This seems like the standard playbook for “working for Trump”, just in a 30-minute DJ-set format…
I would be personally shocked if most of the funds weren’t embezzled

You shouldn’t label him as transphobic if the only issue is that he said one thing wrong in an argument 7 years ago which he apologized for and took down. Is there a pattern of that behavior?
Every human misspeaks from time to time, and it looks like his response to feedback was handled with grace.
He narced on another DJ for doing weed at a show
Can you provide the source to the narcing, to put it into perspective?
Rapper friend knew him from shows and shared an anecdote over ten years ago. He’s dope live fwiw
Well, yeah, but my aunt’s friend’s dog’s sister told my grandfather that he saved a kitten once!
Hahahahaha I like navigation of the dog’s family tree
[Some person is getting devastating flak from industry peers for association with Trump]
[…while also getting screwed by Trump]Begun, the second Trump administration has.
Deadmau5 used to stream on twitch about his touring setup video system. He’d sit in his studio and craft wonders in TouchDesigner.
Fascinating to watchI never really followed him, just not my personal style, but I remember seeing clips of those streams. It was seriously impressive. Dude seemed really in his element, and had an awesome setup all around.
Hopefully he’s changed a bit since then, because he got kicked off of Twitch for making some racist comments, and he made some disparaging comments about trans women around the same time.
But even if he hasn’t, a broken clock and all that.
Oh shit, didnt know that
I only know because it was circulating last night on Bluesky in regards to this comment.
Nobody knew if he still held those opinions and wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt since it’s been like 6+ years since then, but it’s still good to keep in mind.
Do conservatives listen to hard techno, progressive house, dubstep, or other electronica genres? Do they go to massives and drop e?
Does Lauren Boebert listen’s to Sophie’s Faceshopping while jogging on a treadmill?
Perhaps conservatives do consume lots of electronic music?
RIP Sophie.
