About DEADMAU5:

"Like him or loathe him, this is the sound of a man at the peak of his powers," wrote Ian Rouller in IDJ (10/21/09). Over the last three years, DEADMAU5 has gone from near obscurity to becoming a superstar as an innovative live performer and master electronic music producer. His two albums Random Album Title and For Lack Of A Better Name (ULTRA Records) highlight many of his dance floor smashes including “Ghosts ‘n Stuff” featuring Pendulum’s Rob Swire and “I Remember” with Kaskade. This past summer he performed at Lollapalooza in Chicago, Electric Zoo in New York, Glastonbury in the U.K. and a host of other European festivals. His mammoth, worldwide ‘For Lack Of A Better Name’ tour followed encompassing over 30 dates in North America alone. His latest major appearance was at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada where his LiveCity Yaletown performance drew over 20,000.
