Deadmau5 Essential Mix

It's been quite a ride for the man with the mouse head from Toronto and there's no sign of slowing him down. Deadmau5 is on fire! In just a couple years, the Canadian based Deadmau5 has gone from near obscurity to receiving the accolade of "Producer Of The Year" and #1 top selling artist on beatport.

It's said the name Deadmau5 comes from an incident where a mouse crawled into his computer. It's also said he simply chose the name because it was unique. In one interview he stated that he chose the name because he thought nobody would ever register the domain. In any case it's certainly unique and hard to forget once you get yourself hooked on his style and sound. Watch out, or you'll be the one stuck in the trap! Check out his first Essential Mix recorded 7-19-2008.
