Summary:

The article talks about the Canadian producer DJ called DEADMAU5 nominee to the Grammy awards, who is the man behind the mask of mouse, how was created his nick name and how he became an international star of dance music in just two years . How some people are beginning to copy his personal signature and a few surprises that he has store for this year.

Deadmau5 pronounced "dead mouse" is known for the promo in the show "America's Best Dance Crew." He is from Canada and he has been nominated to Grammy Award as DJ producer, he made ​​an appearance at the WMC in Miami Ultra Music Festival in front of 100,000 fans

His nick name is because when he was changing the video card of his computer, he found a dead mouse and this spread in chat and people started to call him the dead mouse guy. Number 5 was because D-E-A-D-M-O-U-S-E was very long and he needed to trim a character .

The success came quickly, just 4 years ago no one knew him. He was catapulted from obscurity to fame in less than two years. David Waxman, the veteran DJ and current Ultra Records executive says: mau5 brings art to another level and makes the music and productions more interesting.

He has become in an icon of electronic music for novices and fans. He redefined the dance music. He works with a large and luxurious complex mixers, MIDI devices and programs and always carries his "Mau5Head.". He has a huge success with the promo of "Ghosts N Stuff of ABDC", but he really don't want to be this 'Ghosts N Stuff' guy.

He has been incredibly successful with For Lack of a Better Name with singles like "Ghosts N Stuff", "Strobe" and collaborations with killer Kaskade "I Remember" and "Move for Me," his fans have placed on the top of game often imitating his signature the “mau5head”.

He is currently planning his new “mau5head” to the Coachella festival in Indio California: An insanely huge LED display HD spherical video surface. It's the only one in the world!". And some surprises as drummer Tommy Lee UMF revelation at the end of March. Also he’s working with other artists known that people will say WHAT?
But this will sound very good but don’t worry because it's not Justin Bieber or anyone crazy.

My personal opinion is that this DJ is the great revelation of the last times because it is completely original and he has created a new style of electronic music, which I could say that we have DEADMAU5 for many more years.
