RP has several channels, this might be a better fit to the "World Music"

Global - Per Oxford Languages definition:
relating to or embracing the whole of something, or of a group of things.

Technically, it is impossible for you to write your comment if you had turned RP off.  No one listening to RP likes every song played, that is why there is a button to skip to the next one.  Sometimes I have to use this PSD more than three times in a row.  I don't write telling everyone because, well, no one cares.

Crank it up and enjoy the drop!

Point taken, but music for dance clubs is best left to dance clubs and raves.  Bill clearly enjoys a "techno lane" that doesn't always resonate with me and this tune definitely falls into that category. 

The throbbing of a crowd to a techno beat is similar to the bobbing and swirling of the crowds at a Dead Show.  It's indicative of communing with a force outside of yourself.  Music is math; math is the language of the cosmos; therefore, grooving to a beat is jamming with the stars.

Errr...an excellent example of the dumbest sort of comment on RP.  

Firstly, profanity...we all need more of that, for sure; and it makes everyone sound super gritty.  Secondly, makes zero sense.  Even if one were to change the OF to an OFF, it doesn't fix the lack of a logical argument.  What is supposed to off your computer?  Your cat?  This song?   Try creating an actual sentence.  Thirdly, all caps...cause yelling is cool.  Or did you just never learn how capitalization is supposed to work?

Maybe you don't like edm...sure.  It's a personal choice.  But merit is subjective...in the meantime let me suggest an edit.

"This track isn't my thing.  I find it jarring and out of place.  I'd prefer it not to be playing on my computer right now as it's making me very angry."

"Audience cohesion". The reason is chemical: it's called MDMA.

So much to this production wise.  It's not a 3 piece rock a roll band but that takes nothing away from Joel's obvious musicality and mastery in the mixing room.   Headphones highly recommended

Funny you should say that. I live in a flat and I tried using JMJ's music with a very beefy subwoofer (acquired just for this purpose, I otherwise don't like base) when the lockdown started to "annoy back" my lousy piano-wannabe-player neighbour and the crazy family upstairs (I am otherwise very quiet myself, so lockdown with annoyingly noisy neighbours was definitely no fun). I like JMJ but it just wasn't enough for this job. One day I heard this song on RP and I said to myself "this is it"! Used it and a few other deadmau5 "songs" ever since, whenever I get woken up waaaay too early in the morning by the commotion upstairs. It doesn't stop it but at least I can't hear it anymore and I don't start the day already mad, I start it "even" 😈
