Deadmau5 takes on Tryst at XS Labor Day Weekend: 5 tracks you need to know
Deadmau5 tunes are recognizable from a mile away, but we aren't going to focus on the "Strobes" and "The Veldt's" of the world. What Joel brings to the table is his impeccable ear, he crafts his sets just as he crafts his productions - meticulously. During an unplugged set, his song selection is always interesting, running the entire gamut of deadmau5's prolific back catalog as well as tunes from every genre. This night was no different. Although some clubgoers may have expected more mainstream fare their confusion was soon muted as Joel took control of the club with his uncanny ability for building suspense - driving the dancefloor with a steady beat instead of big builds and deep drops. Read on for a few of the tunes that defined the night.
