New York, NY. (Top40 Charts/ ULTRA Records) - He's one of the hottest names in the world of electronic music, creating music that transcends the charts. He's also known for his tailor made giant Mau5head and his name is DEADMAU5. This fall, he'll touch down in New York City on Tuesday,
September 16th at award-winning nightclub Cielo in anticipation of his debut album for ULTRA Records,
Random Album Title.
DEADMAU5-the JUNO Award-winning producer and electronic artist flirts with techno and minimal beats, while hinting at tech house, trance and electro was named Beatport's "most influential, forward-thinking and relevant person" earlier this year.
On the tour, DEADMAU5 will showcase the material that will appear on Random Album Title. The album, set for release via ULTRA in the U.S. and Canada as a digital exclusive September 2 and in stores November 4, brings together for the first time all of DEADMAU5's most popular material including smashes "Not Exactly" and "Faxing Berlin" along with his collaboration with Kaskade "I Remember" plus new songs "Some Kind of Blue" and "Slip."
The concept of his live show operates off a laptop with a Lemur, Anomaly and visual effects, set to change the face of live electronic performances as we know it. Complete with his signature Mau5head with its powerful strobe lighting eyes, this mind-blowing piece of costume is worn to maximum effect during his live shows; yet another addition to the ever-increasing aura that surrounds this unique young artist.
In less than a year, the Canadian-based whiz kid has gone from near obscurity to receiving the accolade of Producer Of The Year, beating various supremos to the top spot while also becoming the number one-selling artist on Beatport and the most in-demand producer in electronic music now. Singles "Not Exactly" and "Faxing Berlin"-which appear on Random Album Title-have amassed over 30,000 sales between them on Beatport alone, with the former hitting the top spot for six weeks. It still retains its status at the greatest selling release on the site while his productions have hit the Beaport No 1 spot on no less than 12 occasions. His tracks are some of the most powerful and innovative sounds of recent years, with the U.K.'s Radio 1 and every other major radio station around the world from Rome to Rio play listing his productions in both their specialty and peak time shows, while daily demand for remix projects continues to grow from the biggest labels in the industry.
