Album Title Goes Here

The new title of the upcoming album from Deadmau5, aka Joel Zimmerman.  Deadmau5 has been incredibly busy in his short career from DJing the Grammy's, to launching Skrillex's quick rise to fame, to becoming one of the highest paid DJ's in the world.  Deadmau5 has done it all, even playing the closing ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, his native Canada.

Deadmau5 is known for being very transparent to his fans.  He often broadcasts his recording sessions and does live Q&A on his website for dedicated followers.  Deadmau5 is also known for getting into trouble.  Several times over his career, he has stood up and told the truth about the Electronic Dance Music DJs and has come under fire for admitting that 'anyone can do it' and that it doesn't take much talent to do what most DJs do.

Deadmau5 unmasked

To his fans, Deadmau5 is known for rocking the geek culture.  In fact, his trademark name comes from the tech world.  The story goes that Joel took a broken computer into a repair shop.  When the techs opened up the computer to repair it, there was a dead mouse in the housing.  The name stuck.  "Hey, it's that dead mouse guy!"

Deadmau5' live shows are something unique.  His light show and live production style are known to be highlights of the festival season.  Why?  His ingenious use of self written software for live performance and teaming up with the same show designers who have worked with Daft Punk back when they were still touring.
