[@slaebae3434]

Most people don't understand the level of composing this takes. DJs have a hard time mixing even TWO songs together. Some psychos out there can run Quads but those are a rare breed. Let alone 30+. Obviously this was practiced and what not. But how many years would you need to mash together 30+ songs? Dude was like 16 when he made this. Insanely impressive to throw this together at that age. Some fucking legitimate genius level shit.

[@Sjerfifif]

first off this isn't DJing. It's finger drumming except samples instead of drumming. Second Todd Edwards does this much better listen to Face to Face by daft punk or any of his songs

[@aerospaceglobe]

​@@Sjerfifif Todd Edwards does microsampling, it's a far different compositional technique compared to the mash up here. Todd is incredible, but it's a completely different style of music production

[@Sjerfifif]

@@aerospaceglobe really? I mean different genre sure but Madeon's song is still just small samples from songs all mashed up together into a melody

[@tuneghost3511]

@@Sjerfifif Bro even this way u gotta say that mashing up 30+ songs isn´t that easy... he did an incredible job, no shit he got tons of awards from this song

[@TooFewSecrets]

@@Sjerfifif You need to keep all that stuff put together in your head. Which track out of those 39 should come in at 2:12.20? If you've off by a quarter-second it's not gonna sound right. And obviously if you hit the wrong button out of the ~70 on the board on a live recording like this you're it won't turn out how you want - which means perfectly memorizing what song is on every single button. So much to keep track of in both time and space. And the synth at the end is all him. This would already be a pretty impressive mashup if it wasn't done in real-time, but doing it all on a launchpad pushes it to insanity. There's a reason he basically got handed a music career just for this track.

[@lit5465]

a lot of edm hasn’t aged so gracefully, a lot of the time you can hear edm and tell whether it was made during the 2010s because of how everything sounded during that era but something i love about madeon’s pop culture and just all his music in general is that all of his stuff never age. this mashup is generally old now, but it still sounds so good. being able to create music that sounds great in every era is such a skill and madeon will forever be one of my favorite edm artists of all time

[@sweetlife6299]

I wholeheartedly agree. I miss the melodic sound of 2010s edm. I also think it’s really cool that this comment was made only 10 days ago but has 21 likes. I’m glad people are still coming back to this video in 2023

[@ThePwnasouras]

You’re delusional…it’s incredibly easy to tell the era in which EDM has been made. Even now. And a vast majority of EDM coming out now will definitely stand the test of time as will the EDM of the past. I’m getting old too and I’m so happy I don’t suffer the seemingly commonplace mentality of “things were better back then” that most people (like you) suffer. Change is good mate! Embrace it

[@tommyp4311]

pop culture uses literally timeless songs. it kind of makes sense why this would sound timeless.

[@lit5465]

@@tommyp4311true, but i mentioned his entire discography outside of pop culture is also timeless. his Adventure project is 8 years old and still sounds amazing in comparison to other edm albums. even without sampling, madeon really is hella talented i feel. him and porter robinson

[@devyngaffney5843]

As edm even a thing though more than 10 years ago? Idk about you, but techno and other genrea better than modern edm were at their PEAK in the 90's and early 00's.

Pepe Mendez Surely, you're mistaken, m8. Idk if you know the Producer, Kayzo,(Up and coming artist) but he was recently interviewed... and he's a genre mixing master, literally... it's amazing... But he stated the most common misconception is that DJ's just press play. There's a lot of effort put into mixing LIVE. It's a pretty ignorant statement, m8. Not all DJ's do it. Also, No... LOL... A DJ is different from a LIVE Show... Look up Porter Robinson's live show... as well as Madeon's.... It's not the same. But I DO understand what you mean, m8... There's plenty of performers who use Albeton, Launchpad & what not live... Theyre just not BIG. Because there are none that are at the level Madeon is. (: It's just sad that most producers who use THIS (The Launchpad) are stricly for dubstep. When the ability to do a lot more is there on the device. Also, this isnt an easy instrument to use LIVE.

There are plenty of synths and workstations that are many times more complex than this. Launchpads are very straightforward for the most part.

It really isnt i learned the song in about a day, im sure it took longer to produce it lol

[@InSanCen]

Cooper Ingersoll it's a MIDI trigger. it'll play whatever you tell it to. A keyboard is the same, but with less capabilities. I found it far more difficult learning to programming a DX7 or an M1, than setting up layouts on this.
