The year is 2011. I’m sitting in class and my friend sends me a BBM image of this cover and tells me to hear it. Those days are gone. All that’s left is memories.
Without memory those days would have faded away to nothingness those memories drive me everyday to find new ways to achieve the serenity of the musical past!!!!!
Some songs are there just for the reason of saving such memories... Even if some of them aren't so positive, I feel grateful that I can re-live those thanks to the music. Stay strong, cheers.
2012 was a bad year. Mom's health was going downhill fast and I was stuck in a shit position of trying to be caretaker with no idea what I was doing all while severely depressed and pondering things that no person should consider. Cue bumming HBO or one of those one night, and Deadmau5's concert pops up. I'd heard his tunes and loved em but not seen the show, so I put it on. Something hit when this song started. All I can say is Joel, man, your tunes have helped me stay afloat even with what came after. Mom's passing, moving cross-country, coming out to family, everything that has tried to take me down, your music has been there for me. Thanks man, I owe you.
strobe, aural psynapse, polaris, and faxing berlin are the mt. rushmore of deadmau5 for me. i think i would be dead already without these works of art. bless it
Hope your still around friend. I'd replace polaris with Not Exactly only because that was the first deadmau5 song I'd heard and it's a dime a dozen imo.
The edm boom was a dark time for electronic music. In trying to unite the world in one experience, daft punk opened a can of worms unlike anything else.
This song is very emotional for me. Every time I hear it, I picture the scene below: The first buildup at 0:45 sounds like you’re reminiscing old, nice memories. Then at 1:18, you’re crying tears of happiness at the good old times. Next at 1:47, you enter a phase of depression in your life because reality suddenly hits you and then your next 60 years of life goes by before you can even blink twice. Next, at 2:22 your depression hits its peak and you are barely holding on to your life. At 2:52 you even consider doing the unthinkable. Then, at 3:23, it all comes crashing down. You realize your life is almost over and you start reminiscing again over those same, old memories that aren’t quite as easy to remember now. Then, at 3:30, something jogs your memory and you start to remember those old memories and you realize you still have some time left to live your life and do the things you want to do, but it’s running out soon. At 3:44 you now completely remember that moment. That memory. Oh, it was so perfect. And then at 4:00 the nostalgia gets stronger and stronger until the point where its unbearable and you just HAVE to experience that same spark of joy you once did in that cherished memory of yours or you will never die happy, and then at 4:37 you’re just experiencing that old joy for the last time before you die.
What a beautiful description! I know exactly what you mean. What a whirlpool of emotions. I dont know anything as incredible uplifting and then changes.. I thank you for your thoughts and i feel i know you. May God be with you. Thanks Deadmaus for your incredible creativity. 😊❤
Everything up to 1:47 feels like you’re just thinking about life. Then up to 1:52 you realize the drugs are kicking in and everything after 1:52 to 3:23 feels like you’re in that music video or movie where you’re the main character walking down a hall or house party full of people looking lost from the drugs kicking in 😂 then it’s back to thinking about life thinking the drug effects are done, 4:38 you realize the effects aren’t gone yet and you’re thinking about life still
This track makes me think of the ocean, deep ocean the beauty and mystery surrounding the ocean makes me feel relaxed. Thoughts, ideas and just pure relaxation floods my mind. This is one of the finest tracks by deadmau5. I just love his music. It's been 8 years since I heard the first deadmau5 track and now in 2018 I still am a die-hard fan of him. Joel you are the god of music !
Listening to deadmau5 sparks my creativity. Always has. Headphones on with a smile, wouldn't want it any other way. This is going to be good. Thanks, man.
sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would love any tips you can offer me
@Iker Crew thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out now. Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Masterpiece by deadmau5.. His best composition ever.. I will give 1st rank to this song.. Ambidient choral background, baselines, kicks are perfectly matched and in ending of track he combined these all layers made it so awesome.. Great work 😍 I experienced all these when i was high.. Weed and this song.. Peace 🍁👌✌
I love how somehow, SOME-HOW, he manages to sit in the EXACT same position as the start of the video. C.W. is a national treasure. He must be protected at all costs. Can I get a cow bell?
When this track first got released... I was withdrawing massively from opiates. It got me through all the sleepless nights of pain... All the aches, restless legs, emotions, feeling like my nerves were on fire, headaches... I already had chills but these changed to chills from the absolute orgasmic vibes of this track. A smile was on my face... my endorphins kick started. 5 years have passed... here I am again... In the same position. I made mistakes again and I am in full withdrawal again... Listening to this on repeating and retracing my steps. It's sounding silly isn't it? How one little piece of genius music can pull you through and make you remember that there are things out there worth fighting for... There are things more enjoyable in life than opiates. Like this song. I am probably going to end up deaf at the volume it's at... but this is my cure. It describes every emotion going through me right now, and there is no need for vocals. Every up and down is reflected in this song and it brings tears to my eyes. Deadmau5 you aren't only a f*cking genius my dude... you are also a doctor. I have been writing a book for years now... I imagine this track for my last chapter... x
+Mavi Kuş Thanks for your very kind words... Unfortunately here I am again. Things didn't quite work out the way I had planned but once again this song is seeing me through. I will get there. Thank you again xx
the guy was the only player to score 30+ goals this year and have 23 goals in 22 remaining games. he played vs your team with a broken foot and it took until game 7 for you to win. Ovechkin is a beast
I connected to this song in a very deep way in 2011 on a 3 day session with my friends. We were taking MDMA and in the prime of youth, transfixed with this music. I’ll never forget it and even believe it will do something for my body if I lose my memory. The best things about life are this
@@jasonagudelo3070 que el tipo es un animal de la producción, maneja las herramientas muy fácilmente, también produce para grandes artistas que se quedaron sin ideas.
Insomniac right now.. whenever I feel this, this song puts me to sleep..!! The melody is so calming and soothing..!!! This song is a classic in this decade and decades to come..!!!
Well I aint amongst the people to get all philosophical, but whenever i listen to this track, i picture the song telling me something...Its something like this. When it starts, all it says that a person is really upset and on the verge of giving up, he's really depressed....that shows the sad part of life. When the buildup gets going, the person starts to gain faith in himself slowly,....that shows the positive part of life. During the second drop, the person has so many problems yet he kinda feels happy and faces the problems slowly and continues to enjoy life. Moral, Never Give Up.....aand its time for another drink :)
are u kidding me No he didn't. He stated numerous amount of times that he frequently slept through music theory (which is mostly learning classical music).
why would anyone need to take drugs to enjoy this song in the first place? The song is good by itself! but apparently to some people, they need to take whatever the drug is to enjoy this song.😐
***** If someone needs it because that's what keeps him going and can sustain and enjoy such a lifestyle, I won't judge him - at least not openly ;) - but if people go and openly advertize how they're taking drugs, I think they're fair game for criticism.
My life always takes me back to deadmau5. I was around 13 14 when I found him. Im now 29. Life is hard sometimes, but today ima fight my emotions w this classic.
everybody this is the 2nd edit actually the original edit was made in 2001. and i have to say that i like this version better than the original 2001 version
The year is 2011. I’m sitting in class and my friend sends me a BBM image of this cover and tells me to hear it. Those days are gone. All that’s left is memories.
I’ll a blast this for you. The days have only begun
Without memory those days would have faded away to nothingness those memories drive me everyday to find new ways to achieve the serenity of the musical past!!!!!
God bless you. Keep the vibe alive.
Good memories and great music 🎵

I owe this guy, too, and he doesn't even know it. Blessing to your strength cofcat. Cheers
This is one of Deadmau5' most underrated tracks. It's really up there in my opinion ^_^
True
True
true true true
True true true true
Yes I agree
Anyone enjoying this underrated song in 2024. So good
Present!
Usually I don't like these comments due to many others using it, I'm liking this one.
So it's me and also one person who like this song.
who the fuck told you that it's an underrated song. why don't you go and fuck yourself
@@RoshwyinsTaicoon 3 :) I listened to this nonstop the day it came out and im happy i can say i grew up with it and still liaten to it now.
Best song
strobe, aural psynapse, polaris, and faxing berlin are the mt. rushmore of deadmau5 for me. i think i would be dead already without these works of art. bless it
Hope your still around friend.
I'd replace polaris with Not Exactly only because that was the first deadmau5 song I'd heard and it's a dime a dozen imo.
One of the best songs of deadmau5!
Of EDM
Of any music...
Definitely still is one of the best I never get sick of it, perfection
That beat that comes in at 1:50 reminds me of my alarm clock. I now love my alarm because it reminds me of this song.
I officially hate this song.. Just because of that...... O.o
literal lo bueno q solo son unos segundos😂
literal lo bueno q solo son unos segundos😂
I thought the same thing
This is IMO one of the greatest instrumental electronic songs that I have encountered, it has all that it needs to embody perfection
One of the most feel good electronic compositions I've ever heard
A year later and im still listening to this, while in awe. Love it !!!
i still do, 13 so far
I think we've come full circle guys.. I'm at a point where this sounds better than most electronic music I hear nowadays...
sounds better than 99% of the music, not just electronic.
The edm boom was a dark time for electronic music. In trying to unite the world in one experience, daft punk opened a can of worms unlike anything else.
one of his best track...that synth just cuts the air like a knife when it comes in at 1:16
This song is very emotional for me. Every time I hear it, I picture the scene below:

kinda:D I like your version
If anyone truly understands music... This song is like perfectly created...
Got that right.
Agree
This song brings back memories

Santupi yea same bro I love this song so god damn much
i was at the meowington's hax tour in toronto the bass that whole night gave me a third and likely a 4th heartbeat was such an awesome feeling
my all time Deadmau5 fav. I have it as my alarm... gets me going in 2025
He released this track on the same day of his homecoming show at the Roger's Centre in Toronto. UNFORGETTABLE experience.
Just went on a random drive just to hear this song. 😂😂
This song driving is top tier, for me it’s at night with windows down

aural synapse & strobe are probably my 2 fav mau5 songs
I totally agree! There Might Be Coffee as well.
aural psynapse is by deadmaus, it's just cover art...like art on the front of the album, not a cover of a song.
Kyrae Jenkins strobe is my first love.. heard it while I was high on life on a rainy eve.. damnnn that time
Kyrae Jenkins listening in 2018 this is the best electronic music
your my favorite song =)
One of my absolute favorites.
Just randomly discovered this song on Spotify. Where has It been all my life.

the best buildup in the whole existence of Ultra Music!!!!
+Erm4ck Followed by the best dammm kick there ever was
amen
This song is truly the pinnacle of what we as humans can make when we master music. It's a great song.
Deadmau5 will be a part of modern history after a few years
Gonna be a sad day for music when he passes 😢 hopefully not anytime soon
This song is so relaxing.
Masterpiece by deadmau5.. His best composition ever.. I will give 1st rank to this song.. Ambidient choral background, baselines, kicks are perfectly matched and in ending of track he combined these all layers made it so awesome.. Great work 😍
I experienced all these when i was high.. Weed and this song.. Peace 🍁👌✌
nostalgia is an understatement right now…
you jam to this in the past?
TheatricK s absolutely. brings me back to ultra 2011.
lemme tell you it's an even bigger understatement right now. Music has only gotten worse each progressing year.
hah tell me...
Bruh
2021 and I am listening to this! It sounds like it was released yesterday! Big up 🙌🏻 (p.s. the synths are just incredible!!)
I love how somehow, SOME-HOW, he manages to sit in the EXACT same position as the start of the video. C.W. is a national treasure. He must be protected at all costs. Can I get a cow bell?
Hadn't heard this song before, started all right. And as soon as 1:47 began, a HUGE smile came to my face.
me 3
me 5
:))
this song is one of those things without i couldn't live
this song say more than 1000 words.....
@XD XD ya y k tanta wea pesao kl
much love
Haven't listened to this song in ages (2 years), still sound as amazing as it did the first time. Love you Joel.
When I hear the beat of this track, my mind automatically overlays the lyrics of professional griefers
Great style. So many memories triggered when you hear great music.
Cant describe the feeling! Just hits the soul!
Anyone here in 2020.. Crazy how this song is this old already, Who else had a great childhood with music like this?
When this track first got released... I was withdrawing massively from opiates. It got me through all the sleepless nights of pain... All the aches, restless legs, emotions, feeling like my nerves were on fire, headaches... I already had chills but these changed to chills from the absolute orgasmic vibes of this track.

Good luck and good vibes my friend
I always use this song when I'm about to test a new speakerset bc of the bass
Ah. though the same with my Bose headphones!
This gives me chills
Hearing this song again after 6 years... still gives me goosebumps! Every single time!
I love this song.
Deadmau5 is love. Deadmau5 is life.

Just a beautiful song,progressively builds up,delivers,yet is also soothing.
Well I aint amongst the people to get all philosophical, but whenever i listen to this track, i picture the song telling me something...Its something like this.
When it starts, all it says that a person is really upset and on the verge of giving up, he's really depressed....that shows the sad part of life.
When the buildup gets going, the person starts to gain faith in himself slowly,....that shows the positive part of life.
During the second drop, the person has so many problems yet he kinda feels happy and faces the problems slowly and continues to enjoy life.
Moral, Never Give Up.....aand its time for another drink :)
The guys genius in his creative working
THE BEST SONG EVER.
WOW BEAUTIFULL !!!
why did he add those siren like noises? people are going to disagree but i think the beginning makes the song.
the beginning DEFINITELY sets the tone for the whole song
i think thats what joel intented
Because he's siren head in disguise
How the hell did this escape my ears for so long.....DEADMAU5 YOU ROCK SON
"I have to go now. My planet needs me"
*Note: Deadmau5 died on the way back to his home planet*
deadmau5 is a legal drug
Say it again a little louder for the people in the back!! 🫶🏼😁
Deadmau5 is modern Bach, Beethoven or Tchaikovsky. Guy is so much more than just an ordinary EDM producer/dj.
+Denny Den / eargarsm
in terms of simplicity, i'd say he's modern Eric Satie
actually he studied classical music or something like that ;)
are u kidding me No he didn't. He stated numerous amount of times that he frequently slept through music theory (which is mostly learning classical music).
No man, calm down.
Omg this is the song I was looking for
He's a goddamn magician.
2011? It seems longer that I've known this master piece, like Beethoven or some shit, like Its been a thing all my life.
Weird.
***** Pretty sure I addressed that in my original comment but I;m glad you can do basic math!
this song is way older than that actually... it was first released by Joel under the name halycon441 or something like that... its really nice..🙆
Kaushal Patil Well that explains why it feels a lot older then 4-5 years (Writing this new years eve)
+Bill Gates Not gonna be a bitch about it,you are close,was released in 2001 or some shit i dunno
He had it unreleased in 2001 before he was in the music industry
You make me feel good, Sajid

Goosebumps every time I hear this ö

Damn, uploaded on my birthday back in 2011. It’s been a while
If you have an imagination u don't need drugs to enjoy this music
why not both ?
why would anyone need to take drugs to enjoy this song in the first place? The song is good by itself! but apparently to some people, they need to take whatever the drug is to enjoy this song.😐
but still, you shouldn't take drugs to enjoy it. I'm not such a big fan of this song or some other songs but i still love deadmau5's work
Božo Marić drugs change you over time irreversibly. I don't think I've ever seen an example of when it changed someone for the better.
*****
If someone needs it because that's what keeps him going and can sustain and enjoy such a lifestyle, I won't judge him - at least not openly ;) - but if people go and openly advertize how they're taking drugs, I think they're fair game for criticism.
My life always takes me back to deadmau5. I was around 13 14 when I found him. Im now 29. Life is hard sometimes, but today ima fight my emotions w this classic.
EVERYONE READ THIS:
1.Put this song on.
2.Put There Might be Coffee on.
3.Play them at the same time.
4.ENJOY!!!!!!!!!

omg....
;-;
+Philip Berrocales You're a fucking genius!!!
+Philip Berrocales. It's freaking amazing. Same key and similar tempo. It's like they were made to be played together.
deadmau5 was the best music while playing Line Rider.
everybody this is the 2nd edit actually the original edit was made in 2001. and i have to say that i like this version better than the original 2001 version
true that brah!
it just brings you places.
new to deadmau I NEED more artists and does any one recommend more songs from him?
all of every album, then While 1
Fucking masterpiece!
No me canso de escucharla, ni de bailarla! :) :D ;)
Hearts all around love this so much
He should start his ASOT set like this
how is he producing these songs these songs its like dm5 is a time traveler or intergalactic being , these songs are just interstellar .
they are truely, like no other
U sir are 100% correct dm5 is a god !!!

Any 2025 year old peak enjoyers ?
This song is perfect
This is very underrated electronic song. It is as if it wasn't made in shitty 2000-2016 period
*2010-2016
The original was created under his Halcon441 alias which he used from 1998-2002 so...
