Deadmau5 continues his onslaught of music with a new production out titled ‘XYZ‘. We see its release on mau5trap. Mark your calendars because this track will appear on the upcoming We Are Friends Vol. 11 scheduled for release later this year.
Now, let’s talk about the track. Firstly, with a mysterious title, it can mean many things. And that’s what the song is about. It contains fast-tracking synths and hypnotizing beats. Secondly, you know it’s an instrumental–and a long one. As soon as you hit the first verse, the second one hits you with a change in notes and so forth. Feel the rhythm and groove. The fluidity of each beat is what Joel is known for. Lastly, subtle tweaks leave you wanting more and soon, you find yourself at the end of the nine-and-a-half-minute piece. This is the leading single from the upcoming We Are Friends Vol.11.
We Are Friends started in 2012, offering music compilations with fresh, newly discovered talent from the mau5trap label. Now in its 11th edition, we’re treated to newly dropped singles from the label’s key and rising players. In addition, if you really liked this track, you can also catch him on the inaugural We Are Friends Tour. It launches July 15th in Philadelphia with NERO supporting a DJ set. On select dates, all other shows will have Kasablanca, Lamorn, No Mana b2b Eddie, Blackgummy, Morgin Madison, Bensley, and HNTR. You can check out the tour dates here.
