Back in July, deadmau5 collaborated with some of his favourite artists to create a new compilation: mau5ville: Level 1. It featured two new deadmau5 songs, a handful of killer remixes, and new originals from GTA and Getter.
The release of this album also featured his first collaboration with Rob Swire in almost ten years, ‘Monophobia‘, which had fans desperate for more music. In the rumour mill, Chinese streaming platform, Netease Cloud Music, reported that the album was expected to drop on September 23rd, along with a world tour announcement. Clearly, this is was only a rumour, but now, it seems that the Canadian producer is not wasting any time in readying the next outing.
According to the r/deadmau5 reddit page, the track list mau5ville: Level 2 has leaked. From the leak, Level 2 looks like a perfect and original mau5 masterpiece. “Drama Free” features deadmau5’s fellow Canadian singer-songwriter, Lights. The track was originally teased by deadmau5 himself, on both Twitter and Twitch. And if that wasn’t enough, the song then gets its very own remix by Chris Lorenzo, who originally remixed the classic mau5 track, “Raise Your Weapon“.
Although it seems like the highly anticipated, ‘Midas’ Heel‘, may not be on this album, speculation has gathered that it may be released under a different song name: Drama Free (Instrumental Mix). Whether or not this is true, if this leak is legit, another long awaited song, ‘GG‘ will finally be released, and we can’t wait.
In this video it seems Midas’s Heel has been renamed to Drama Free from r/deadmau5
By the looks of it, this album will definitely be a classic. Although no release date has officially been set, the anticipation is definitely real.
