AND another thing...

http://soundcloud.com/fuckmylife/everything-you-are

Yet another preview on deadmau5' soundcloud. Not much known about this track, but give it a listen...

Psylark

Double Rainbow / Moguai's "Oyster"

First of all, a track made with modulars...And incorporating vocals from a popular meme.

http://soundcloud.com/fuckmylife/double-rainbow-deadmau5-modular-mayhem-mix

It's pretty nice in the meantime while we wait for various tracks to be released...

Deadmau5 has also been recording a bit more with some other female interest...aka SOFI (Sofi Needs a Ladder). This is expected to be released soon, and on the new album.

Other than that, there is no news on deadmau5 as such, he is still on tour in America currently, still playing new tracks such as Some Chords, Industrial Strength Sleeping Pills, Cthulhu Sleeps and Sofi Needs a Ladder.

MOGUAI'S OYSTER

Next, I'll plug a bit more for MOGUAI / Mau5trap...A new release on Mau5trap, Moguai's Oyster, which was on his new album We Ar Lyve. A new remix that is an edit he played "lyve" at Brixton while he was with Deadmau5 on tour in the UK.

There's also a remix by Michael Woods, who remixed Strobe and I Said, and the original mix.

Seeya Next Tuesday

Been awhile since the last update. Not much news since the mau5 has been on tour lately.

The biggest news right now is that that there is a new mau5head in the making for his Unhooked shows (he said this during one of the uStream streams). Pictures and details have yet to be revealed, we'll keep you guys updated, so keep your eyes peeled for more info.

Rukes has uploaded pictures from EDC (and they are absolutely amazing, be sure to check them out!)

And here are some videos from the uStream sessions. :)

This is how you produce music by farting.

Boards of Canada covers

If you like them, then pay attention to this blog post.

http://soundcloud.com/fuckmylife/boards-of-cadanada-roybgiv-deadmau5-cover

This uses a kind of dubstep style mix to it...and it's quite a good mix.

http://soundcloud.com/fuckmylife/boards-of-canada-kiteracer-2-deadmau5-remake

This one has a cool melody and sound to it.

These are 2 cool covers...And great songs by BoC. Got me interested in them...

Just Dance

So it may seem that deadmau5 might be in DJ Hero 2, judging from some footage and info from the latest DLC release for DJ Hero, which was provided to players as "a snippet of whats to come in DJ Hero 2." Whether a couple tracks of his or him himself as a playable character shows up in the game is pretty much speculation at this point.

He is indeed showing up in the game as a playable character!

Fueling the party will be a host of all-new social multiplayer game modes and innovative freestyle gameplay giving virtual DJ's the ability to crossfade, scratch and sample in over 70 speaker-blowing mashups from the hottest DJ's and Producers around the world, including Deadmau5 – part of dance music's elite – who will be starring as an in-game playable character.

This is also backed up by the photo that was taken by him at Coachella a month or so ago. (click here to view a larger version, then look below the crossfader on the controller.)
Let me know what you guys think in the comments, interested to hear others opinions!

Xbox 360 users can grab this free download and queue it to your consoles downloads with this link.

EDIT: Here's a newer video. Thanks to MattieBoy360 from TDC. :) Pause around 0:52, 0:55, 0:59 and beyond for glimpse of the e-mau5.

Joel also streamed for few hours on uStream last night, and I managed to catch about an hour or so of footage, check it out here.

Sleeping Beauty Pills - Live

We first found this track on deadmau5' soundcloud about a fortnight ago...

It was a bit of a tease, and didn't have the full song, but he first played the song live at sasquatch about a week ago...

And also at Hard Rock in San Diego...

But here is the video of the full song (I presume) at sasquatch...Don't listen if you want to wait for the album.
