Mike Posner - Cooler Than Me (VMA Remix)


First remix he played at the VMAs, now extended. No idea how this song came to be in the interwebs, but all I know is the compilation of his performance at the VMA can now only be found on vimeo or in the news section on www.deadmau5.com.

BSOD Remix EP - This is the Hook


Most of you may know BSOD, aka Deadmau5 + Steve Duda's collaborative project.

No new stuff has come from them for a while, however an old classic famously and wrongly represented as a Deadmau5 song now has a remix EP released by Play Records, home of the At Play compilation series.



Tracklist:
1. This is the Hook (Pleasurekraft Remix)
2. This is the Hook (D-Formation Remix)
3. This is the Hook (Phunk Investigation Remix)
4. This is the Hook (D-Unity Remix)
5. This is the Hook (Zoltan Kontes and Jerome Robins "This is the Vocal" mix)
6. This is the Hook (Zoltan Kontes and Jerome Robins "This is the Dub" mix)
7. This is the Hook (Original Mix)
8. This is Also the Hook (Original Mix)


This is the Hook is a classic. It's catchy, you'll like it.

New Deadmau5 compilation album - 4x4=12 - out in December?


Several websites have now got a preorder up for Deadmau5' new album, and they all say that the new album will be out on December 7th 2010...

The new album appears to be called 4x4=12. Nice and arbitrary, as usual.

(album artwork kind of official)

Links:

Proposed (not confirmed) tracklist:
1. Some Chords
2. SOFI Needs a Ladder
3. Sleeping Beauty Pills
4. Cthulhu Sleeps
5. Atrium
6. Animal Rights
7. One Trick Pony
8. Bad Selection
9. I Said (Michael Woods Remix)}

Remixes So Far..

Hello all! The submission date for the SOFI Needs A Ladder remixes has now passed, and its finally time for the plays. Now just so you remember, 20 remixes will be given a shot at the grand prize. 10 chosen by the highest amount of spins, and another 10 chosen by Beatport staff. Of these 20 remixes, 10 will be chosen by Deadmau5, and they will all be asked to produce a 30 minute DJ mix to test their skills. The person who makes the best DJ peroformance (according to Deadmau5) will be the winner of the grand prize and will be the opening act for one of deadmau5' performances.

I've listened to over 40 remixes so far, and here are some that have caught my attention personally;
