But of course I can't go on raging about you without giving some proof. First coincidence is the similarities in your musical style, which in itself is not a problem. In fact if you were more original then I would probably love you since I do like your style of music. But the sad fact is that it will cause people to compare you to others with a similar musical style (cough* cough* Daft Punk...). And that is where it all begins, because with that comparison arises many of the less than coincidental similarities between the two of you. And it's this comparison that also points out the quality issues in your work when compared to Daft Punk.
Now I suppose the first "more than just a similarity" between you and Daft Punk is the use of helmets. Daft Punk were the only group to insist on wearing helmets and keeping their identities secret. This is one of the things that makes them so great, their secrecy. You however are the second to wear a helmet of some sort, and while you do have a rather different helmet, it serves the same purpose, and since you are the only two groups in the world to use them, it instantly makes you seem the copy. What's dissappointing though is that when you compare the two, you see the terribly large difference in quality. Daft Punk had their helmets crafted by professional movie prop makers, while in comparison, it looks like you build the mau5heads yourself using craft supplies (im sure that comment will upset someone). But to back up my point I give you the following photos: (And yes that photo is real, it was taken from deadmau5's facebook page.) To be continued...
