Mau5 gets back to work.
Aside from his usual controversial stirring headlines, social media beefs and real-world lawsuits, Deadmau5 is ready to get back to the grind and do what he does best: make music. The Canadian DJ/producer whose real name is Joel Zimmerman revealed to fans that he’s set himself a target of completing a new album for the start of 2016.
Mau5 shared the news when he responded to a Twitter user’s blunt question, “do you still make music?” His answer, “well honestly, haven’t done anything since November. Been taking a production break while they build the new studio. ”
He continued, “The plan is, when the studios done in the fall, I’m going into winter studio hibernation. Should have a new album done by Jan I think.”
If Deadmau5 does stick to his plan, the release would be the follow-up to his 2014 album “While(1<2)”, which opened at #9 on the Billboard 200. Known to also be one of EDM’s biggest trolls, the EDM superstar has taken turns of late sharing the hate for the efforts of Jack Ü and Justin Bieber‘s collaboration “Where Are Ü Now” and well, probably a few more. He also previously launched separate legal actions, one involving Disney and the other a Toronto production called “Deadmouse: The Musical“.
Deadmau5 should have some fun toys to play with when his studio is complete. as he’s shared pictures of the elaborate work-in-progress.
Always good to have a plan… This one looks oddly familiar tho.
