Back To An Epic Event


Holy posts batman..? Right? lol Well me being caught up with recent events, I've been pretty busy and freaked out over the recent events, just amazing.

Im very thankful, but I was not given the pleasure to see this amazing gig, so bringing information to you for the third (and probably not the last) time, I give you the Coachella gig once again..

I was too caught up to mention the fantastic pictures that Rukes (occasional photographer for Deadmau5) had taken at the gig.

These pics are awesome, and show probably the finest details of the gig, hope you guys enjoy.

Check out the full set HERE.

A Forgotten Mau5 Remix?

Just kidding. :p This isn't the most well known remix by the Mau5 out there, but it is certainly an addictive one. After noticing several friends of mine that listen to a lot of the Mau5 not know this track, I had to share it! This is a nice cool progressive remix, similar sounding to the remix he made for Morgan Page's hit; "Longest Road"

Its probably a bit more basic than we are used to, but I find myself playing it in my head all the time.

This remix, according to iTunes, was released Jan 27 2009.

Available for purchase on; iTunes HERE , and Beatport HERE

Here is a free full length preview;


Enjoy, keep it classy,

Deadmau5 – Coachella 2010 track roundup

vv Don't miss the posts below this one! vv

Recently, there has been alot of attention with the LED Mau5head revealed at Coachella. It is impressive, but I best know deadmau5 for his tunes. So what of the tunes?

Some Chords (working title)


This was first played at UMF 2010. Still my personal favorite. And still brilliant.

New track - Cthulu Sleeps *EXCLUSIVE TITLE*
(guessed title, Joel did mention 'Cthulu' in the song title, whether or not it was the same name he mentioned via facebook/twitter is another question..)


An interesting track. I like it alot. NOTE: This is only about partway into the song, here is the beginning.

Another new track (no info on name)



You Need a Ladder (with Tommy Lee on drums and Sofi Toufa on vocals)


No live vocals or drums, but is still a cool song.

This is all I've managed to find on Youtube at the moment - MASSIVE thanks to those who uploaded these videos.

I Hung Out With Deadmau5

Excuse the bad pic of me, but thats ME and Deadmau5!



This is another fine reason as to why Deadmau5 has gained to be the best. Helping out a fan get to see his biggest idol.

Me, in the middle of playing Call Of Duty, get a phone call.. "5uck It!" Joel calls me, asks me whats up.

He picks me up in his car, and we all go down backstage to the gig in Newfoundland Canada.

We hung out for a bit, waited for the other DJ to finish, then once we got the cue we all went down to the stage area, and got the party started.





He opened with the
acappella of Ghosts N Stuff which he then mixed into a new track I believe he called; "Cthulhu Sleeps" Amazing track full of hypnotic bass that really got the crowd going.

There wasn't too much I knew he played as most of it was brand new, but some classics he did play were; I Said, Not Exactly, Ghosts N Stuff vs Moar Ghosts N Stuff, some new amazing mix of Sometimes Things Get Whatever, and of course Hi Friend. Just to name a few.

It was a fantastic night for me, and for the crowd he certainly did please everyone, the set was amazing.

I would personally like to thank everyone for this, especially Joel and Paul for being soo cool about it. I had an amazing night, and the gig was fantastic.

Keep It Mau5y,
DJP

NEW LED MAU5 HEAD UNVEALED AT COACHELLA 2010!

Thats right! You heard it and have seen it here! The new Mau5 set includes a full stage created by the folks who made the Daft Punk pyramid, and to top it off, a brand new LED mau5 head.


Seen in this video, a full backstage LED stick carpet, a 'box' shape of LED tubes, and the masterpiece the LED Mau5 Head! Now in this video we only see the mau5 outline on the head, we are told that the head it self is capeabul of doing tuns of effects, hence the reason for no eyes on the head.

Here is the head without the lights activated;


Stay tuned for up to date information! As soon as we get it, we post it!

Deadmau5 @ UMF 2010 videos

Ahh, new deadmau5.

But first of all, some mildly old stuff.

This right here is cool. Tommy Lee on drums, with a woman singing (No idea who? Tell in comments if you know) and a stripped down version of You Need a Ladder from his other live shows.
EDIT: Singer is Sofia Toufa (according to commenter) and song may be called Sofia Needs a Ladder (sorry for any spelling mistakes). Later in the video is his remix of Paco Di Bango's World by Orlando Voorn, but without vocals, but sounds sick.



And here is his remix of Killing in The Name by Rage Against the Machine...Again, only used live.



And now for the new stuff.

This song was the first song to be played at UMF, and is my favorite so far. EDIT: Song may be called "Some Chords" or "Oh, Whatever" (thanks commenters + youtube commenters)
Note that at the start after the intro video, deadmau5 has some technical difficulties. Skip to around 4 minutes for the song.



And here is (one) of the dubstep tunes that was the subject of another post.



And to finish off, an oldy but a goldie, (Moar) Ghosts n stuff into the proper Ghosts n Stuff.




Songs that he played at UMF (that have been uploaded to youtube)
The intro song which doesn't have a name yet
FML
You Need a Ladder
Strobe
The Reward is Cheese
Ghosts n Stuff
Moar Ghosts n Stuff
the dubstep song


Loads of videos are being uploaded onto youtube right now...I'll post any spectacular songs as they come up.
