MasterClass, an online education platform designed to give aspiring artists and creatives the opportunity to learn from top-of-the-line talent, has just announced Deadmau5 as its latest instructor for electronic music.
Deadmau5 Defends Electronic Music Against Arcade Fire's Bullshit Comments
He's responsible for trolling the world so it's no surprise that Deadmau5 has shot to the defence of electronic music following some jibes from Arcade Fire (pictured).
The band's frontman Win Butler recently made comments on the first weekend of Coachella, having a dig at the amount of electronic musicians at the festival, saying: "Shout-out to all the bands still playing actual instruments at this festival."
Deadmau5 took it into his own hands to respond, defending his fellow electronic companions.
if i wanna watch real artists perform, id pick the opera before wasting a fucking minute of my life with arcade fire. #do youevenscorebro?
