Exclusive Deadmau5 track
Stream Tommy Trash remix of 'The Veldt'
You probably know the story to Deadmau5's 'The Veldt' by now, the track that looks set to be his festival peak and departs from his trademark electro in favour of a sunny, lighter and more uplifting touch.
Created over the weekend of March 17 - 18 during a 22 hour Live Streaming session, and based on a short sci-fi novel by Ray Bradbury, Joel uploaded the original instrumental version of 'The Veldt' to Soundcloud for fans to enjoy. The next day, however, Tweets were flying around about creating a vocal version and – much to his surprise – one fan, Chris James, had actually nailed this, creating his lyrics around the same same.
In Joel's words, “he righteously did his homework, and came up with just a few bang on verses that completely compliment the story and the mood, which is all I ever want from a song that contained lyrical content. Can’t give him props enough.”
You can see the moment he told Chris this below.
We have an exclusive stream of a remix of the single by Australian electro star Tommy Trash.
