It’s been awhile since I’ve had anything to say about Deadmau5, so I’m pretty pumped with this EP he released a couple weeks back. Not exactly sure how it slipped by my friends and me, but it’s now safely lodged in my library with two killer remixes. I was never really into the mau5’s second full length Lack of a Better Name. ‘Strobe’ and the like just didn’t do it for me. ‘The Reward is Cheese’ and ‘Ghosts n Stuff’ were more along the lines of the mau5 I wanted. Harder. Faster. Random Album Title was and still is one of the best progressive house albums of all time IMO, and “Fifths” seems to fit right in with that creative mindset. I was doing some research and it looks like this track has been out for a few years? Regardless, the remixes are delightful treats and Matt Zotti’s is clearly the superior. Can’t fucking wait to see Deadmau5 again at Outside Lands this year!
