HOOKED AND UNHOOKED, CANADIAN RISING STAR LIGHTS UP SUMMER STAGES
 Deadmau5 |
Deadmau5 has announced a North America Tour this summer. Consisting of over 20 dates, which launch May 29 at the Sasquatch Music Festival in Washington State, the electronic music producer and performer will tour his festival show featuring high-end production and a new LED-activated mau5head.
Along the tour route, Deadmau5 will also perform a few ‘Unhooked’ shows. “Deadmau5 unhooked will mean no massive stage and no LED mau5head,” he says. “There will still be some form of production, LED screen and lights and all that stuff…but at some shows it just won’t be possible to supply the LED head of the huge new stage because of travel and routing. That thing isn’t exactly portable!! On the upside, ‘Unhooked’ sets tend to be longer and more diverse.”
“Like a Lite-Brite with a short fuse, this electronic music performer’s onstage visuals pulsed, glowed, and had a giant crowd exploding in ecstasy with each ebb and flow of his music. It was a sight to see: a 15-foot tall cubic structure stood on its corner, as its sides projected a tangle of multi-colored dots, lines, and other form-shifting shapes. Huge screens in the background blasted even more visuals, and the man born Joel Thomas Zimmerman stood atop the structure in a mouse outfit that was equipped with lights,” wrote William Goodman at Spin.com.
“Mr. Mau5 is a headliner at global music festivals, and he’s evolved to live up to the billing by presenting an electrifying set of bombastic lights and razor-edged electro-house Friday night at Coachella. Deadmau5, in his signature mouse-ears costume, blasted the festival’s Sahara tent with sound and light like a radiologist zaps your bones,” wrote Dennis Romero at LAWEEKLY.com.
