Deadmau5 - 4x4=12

Deadmau5 (real name Joel Zimmerman) returns with a new album “4x4=12”, but has the Canadian born DJ delivered a masterpiece?

The music scene has changed vastly since his last album, with producers/DJ’s being influenced by a certain “dub-step”. However Deadmau5 has got the mixture just right in this album. “4x4=12” introduces dub-step and vocal tracks mixed with the sound of Deadmau5 which fans have grown to love over the years. If you’re new to Deadmau5 this album is a great album to buy as it shows the DJ at his best.

The album is 11 tracks long and in my opinion all tracks off the album instant hits. The two that stand out for me however has got to be “Raise Your Weapon” and “Sofi Needs A Ladder”. Both feature female vocals, which compliment the beats nicely. I’m not use to hearing a Deadmau5 track with vocals, however both tracks are absolute hits and just shows Deadmau5 broadening his music skills. These 2 tracks alone are worth buying the album for. Also the introduction of dub-step in his tracks works nicely and just shows how talented he is.

Mr Zimmerman has released an album, which in my opinion shows what the DJ is about. This is exactly the kind of album that makes him unique and why fans love his music. This album definitely gets top marks. I recently brought tickets to a Deadmau5 gig and can’t wait hear these tracks get blasted!!
