Before DeadMau5 was nominated for several Grammy Awards.
Before DeadMau5’s iconic helmet developed a cult following; having his fans tattoo it all over themselves, an extensive merch line, fan art, and collectible figurines
Before he rocked world stages and iconic events like Lollapalooza, and was reported to earn 100k for every event played
Before his very active social media pressence on facebook and twitter would get over 9 million supporters
Before deadmou5 would date smoke shows like october 2009 playmate Elle Evans and tattoo goddess Kat von D.
Joel Zimmerman grew up in Niagara Falls and early on showed an interest in electronics and mechanical things. He spent his youth dismantling machines and putting them back together, and became obsessed with video games. But when his parents divorced in his teens he took to raving as a form of expression. A habit that didn’t go over well with his parents. Joel always seemed to be ahead of the curve, advocating for computers in music production long before anyone considered it. He was a wiz kid on the computer and would spend his time in chat rooms back when the Internet was in its infancy. When a dead mouse caused his computer to crash that story evolved into his online username. After high school he moved to Toronto and befriended a fellow programmer and the two made a joke track that jabbed at how formulaic house music was. What they hadn’t counted on was it becoming a huge hit.

+Ivan Lynn tru

i went to highschool with this dude, westlane high school in niagara falls, i remember him being boo'ed at the talent fair when he played a re-mixed version on nine inch nails ..he simply said one day ill show you all..ill be rich and famous...now look at him lol damn lil homie with the bright yellow plastic wallet chain made it happen, got high with him a few times...picked on him once or twice too... now look at me...commenting on his video lol. i fail lol , way to go joel!
high on what?
i am jealous af
museick706 yo im currently going to westlane right now lmao, id be sick if he came back one day
museick706 Honestly, you're not convincing anyone.
how am i supposed to believe you?
deadmau5 and dubstep, you've just made a huge mistake.
Lol right
Jake Thumbs deadmau5 is to dubstep as a dead mouse is to a PC.
Jake Thumbs deadmau5 only did one dubstep track that wasn’t really his anyway. The 2nd half of Raise Your Weapon was produced by Skrillex while the first half was deadmau5
Guys. Dubstep is a genre lol, not a DJ. That's like saying Ozzy Osbourne and Rock music........
One of his beats he made for Shotty Horroh does have dubstep in it.
this guy 100% pronounced his name dead mow five before making this
Do Jesus before he was dead
LOL
He rose again dimwit
yeah jesus
Still alive bro!
+aidanrox117 u wish
Deadmau5 created dubstep in 2007? What the hell our you even smoking?
xXxKAMIKAZExXx Skream made dubstep
Raw Music Nah. It was definitely Skrillex! Dubstep is American. Jk xD
xXxKAMIKAZExXx He's smoking our joints.
xXxKAMIKAZExXx actually Daft Punk created it all in the 80s. Deadmau5 and Skeillex made it mainstream
@Ross Fennell
Sorry bro, Daft Punk isn't Dubstep. They're just whatever they wanna be.
08:12 What?! Deadmau5 had nothing to do with dubstep. Dubstep isn't even a sub-genre of house...
deadmau5 had nothing to do with the creation of dubstep homie, dubstep came out of drum n bass in england had nothing to do with deadmau5. he had more to do with the commercialization of electro and progressive house.
+Anthony Longobardo yep pretty much, Joel hates dubstep he does more progressive style synth then anything that is what propelled him into fame also knowing the right people at the time etc.. etc..
skream was the one who gave real dubsteo its soynd. yhat brostep americans listen to isnt dubstep
+Vape Mob yeah I'm not too savy on the history of dubstep but I know Skream and benga were definitely a couple of the first guys slowing things down. Skreams first self entitled EP was really something different and amazing.
Skream was the one who MADE dubstep and wrong, dubstep started evoling off of Grime & 2-step
2 step is garage genius
Prince before they were dead 😭
man. He died of the flu. What a ways to go
Yea
I was just thinking of that
yas
+Noah Rodela just about to say that
Correction: sampling was "ahead of its time" in the late 80's, not when Joel started making music. Furthermore, sequencing goes back to the first mass produced synths in the 70's such as the moog modular.
LOL "advocating for the use of computers in music production long before anyone else had considered it"
"Joel always seemed to be ahead of the curve, advocating for computers in music production long before anyone else had considered it." This statement is so historically ridiculous I don't know where to begin. Even Joel (whose music, and whom, I like, so I'm not bagging on him) would agree that the use of computers in music goes back DECADES, not just years, before Deadmau5. I wouldn't bother responding to this if it weren't so unfortunate how misinformation like this, so casually imparted, does collective damage to our society's already historically challenged condition.
Only just watched this vid and had hoped someone had picked up on that ridiculous statement in the comments. What is this guy (or his researchers) on?!
I know right!? He always uses real analogs!
That is NOT how dubstep came to being. It finds its roots in Dub and 2 Step and has existed since way before Dedmau5 ever got famous.
+Aishan Vali Thankfully there is someone who knows heir shit on RUclips.
Deadmau5 is honestly one of the most creative artists out there. Other genres don't even compare
I'd like to see you do daft punk before they were famous
+Xeno Blade watch "daft punk unchained" instead
it's a bbc documentary about them
BSOD... Better Sounding On Drugs...
Aleziss blue screen of death
naw, what Aleziss is better lel
better sounding on drugs
"haven't done a DJ before" literally skrillex is right there
"Propelled the creation of the Dubstep genre."
Erm, no. This is not correct. Dubstep is a derivative of the Garage genre that started to emerge in the late 90's in London. Deadmau5 had nothing to do with it.
Dubstep actually came from DnB...
No it came from dub, which was the remixing of reggae music and it WAS invented in London on the 90s
What does Faxing Berlin have to do with Dubstep?
+LiquidRush ikr
+LiquidRush Deadmau5 clearly stated that he hated dubstep.
I dunno I heard he was originally gonna be called Dubmau5
+Gabe Newell He said he hates the uninspired dubstep of nowadays. He doesn't mind the genre itself.
+LiquidRush he actually minds it (see 'Raise your Weapon') what he does not like is that simple one which requires no creativity and just searches for noise.
Joel (Deadmau5) went to the same rave and even raved with my mom in 1997 at Hullabaloo in Toronto :)
Spectrum well you're mom gay
help me pls *your
Melvin Nakavenzi do you have any friends or a social life?

Excellent video! Will be taking his upcoming masterclass. Can't wait!
Prince - before they were dead
Omg

Bored of Canada is horribly underrated.
+Derpancakes Sadly
+ProudCorsian boards of canada
+Derpancakes Sorry, can't stop listening to a dead man.
i know!!!!!! thats one of my all time favorites from joel, its just so sad and happy at the same time, everytime i hear it, it reminds me of a young producer making it big time as he continues (joel)
ooo i love bored of canada!
I learned so much about my favorite Canadian! Thank you :D
been waiting on this one!
Michael McCrudden, the only person to ever call DOS, "D.O.S."
Do H3H3's Ethan Klein , dude !
Yes that's what I'm saying
No
+MEGARUSHSTAR YT shut up
+Thomas McMullan no what
#yoursickbro
Deadmau5 is the OG of the electronic scene.
Thanks Michael!
I love deadmau5... I get the fact that his music can be repetitive such as those continuous beats, but he is a fucking talented genius, and most people don't see that.
Also he isn't fake like most EDM artists, some who call themselves DJ's (I know Deadmau5 isn't one).
There is no way that Jewel Zimmerman kicked off dubstep. He didn't start messing around with dubstep until his Deadmau5 stuff was already popular, and before anybody ever heard one single dubstep track from Deadmau5, there were several other dubstep DJs out there producing tons of Highly developed very good dubstep. Joel came to the dubstep game late.
Thank You So Much god bless you
daft punk next
YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Hell yeah!!
Deadmau5 live is just so fucking sick
People aren't that patient with his music. Drop the poptart (stay) is also another great song by him
Hytherdel Yea lots of people left the mainstage when he started playing, but just good,all the true fans stayed lol
2:13 the clip of the falls is reversed
So what
That was awesome!
MOAR DJ's please! Awesome video by the way!

The water over the falls is flowing backwards 2:12 :)
Kent VanderVelden lol
Kent VanderVelden I noticed that too!
he looks like the dude from 90s techno party on mdma
in the cartoons
waiting for this one
Just for reference, Dubstep is not a sub-genre, nor did Deadmau5 have anything to do with creating it. It's much older than you think.

Before they were dead Prince
awesome channel bro!
what a legend
Do Virtual Riot next
heres a small tip: his first youtube account was stollentroll32
Rowan VDH sorry to ruin the mood but this comment is kinda 4 years old
@@SirPlartinumLongbottom Sorry to break it to you any askers? But fr it doesn't matter
dude u are sooo incomplete ....almost u lying
The reward is cheese was also one of the first things he did with another Canadian producer called Jelo. It didn't get an official release until ages later (where it's mentioned in this video) but it was already a well known tune.
Great Work, nice one for featuring ☝ ✌
9:35 Is that some audio joke? His audio switched to only the left side after the clip with the audio on only the right side.
+George Rosebush No, it's called _technical incompetence_.
"propelled the creation of the dubstep genre" EXCUSEMEWTFRUDOIN
What a story.... nice..
One of my favorite EDM producers :D
Do Before they were famous on slim Jesus
no
After*
No
I hate you for suggesting Slim Jesus.
before he can say nigga with brown people behind him and not get beat up
Daft Punk before they were famous would be interesting dude
Thx for the lessons of mello man😃😃✊✊
i love him soooo much! deadmau5 make me your gogo!
What about his old stuff as Halcyon441?! I love the music he released with that alias
ooh details please! brb i go google *no wait bing*
Dig this
Wewewewewewewewewewe
Don't think Joel ever really did drugs. He mentioned in a stream that he has some type of disorder that makes drug much more potent and dangerous.
Thanks for the insight.. I'll be opening for Deadmau5 on March 30th 2024.
I was at his first show in Halifax when he put the mouse helmet on, epic !
Wait did he say he came up with the use of computers in music??? lol
Nujabes, before they were dead
oh shit 😂❤
Luv ya dead mouse
And Faxing Berlin didn't fucking propel Dubstep, don't know where the hell they got from.
+Subwoofer Dildo It definitely had an impact on electronic music at the time but I would agree, Raise your weapon sounds much closer than any beat from Faxing Berlin.
Do daft punk before they were famous
MY DEADMAU HISSSSS
The hand movements that he does it's like a dance he does the same moves over and over you can tell what he is going to do it makes me want to blow my head off
FAXING BERLIN, DUBSTEP!!??!?!??!
OHHHH BOYYY
do merkmusic
Yes
+Gaming God yes plez
yes
That's going to be hard becuase you can't find a lot of history on him.
it's a challenge wink wink*
Love DeadMau5.
deadmau5 is still op, the are soo chill tracks
2:22 anyone noticed Srkillex ?
9:35 can you speak up please?!
dope..
Why the fuck do I watch these videos? I always find myself here. They're never any better than the last time.
8:40 should have mentioned "unspecial effects" pretty sure that was a jab at micheal bay...
Quite idiotic saying that he inspired dubstep when the truthful fact is dubstep came from the very first drum and bass genre, it is a drum and bass sub genre. Lots of drum and bass elements had dupstep in it, for example the transitions in the songs had that dub element mixed with electronica. When it comes to the dubstep name as a genre it should be called dumbstep because that's what it actually is a dumb step out of it's original form.
***** - I know, that is still late. What I was referring to was drum and bass elements that existed way before, somewhere in the 80's but never kicked off to a genre.
The picture with him posing with the picture is in a mall called niagara square, sadly the mall is being taken down soon so whoever is a huge fan and wants a pic of his biography, better do it quick
Plz more dj's!!
Everybody's going to want to see you do Prince now.
+Justin Omoi (Artist Tutorials) Yes!
Ayy it's Justin Omoi
anthony branss Back at it again ^_^ Ayee.
Great video but Faxing Berlin has nothing to do with dubstep. I'm not being a genre snob, it's just totally unrelated. It would be like saying Aerosmith influenced Slayer. Maybe he meant to say Ghosts n Stuff even though it's 128 BPM and technically "electro" or "complextro" but it still has wobbles and choppiness associated with 2010 era dubstep.
+James Ruehlmann If Hatcha, Artwork, Mala & Coki had graves they'd be rolling in them after this video.
+James Ruehlmann Literally, like Armand Van Helden's remix of Spin Spin Sugar by the Sneaker Pimps influenced dubstep more than anything Deadmau5 did lol
YESS! I forgot he debuted his mouse mask at Reflections in Halifax! 2007! he came back 10 years later (this Canada Day) and debuted his Cube 2.1! HALIFAX ALL DAY
I love deadmaucinco
outkast before and after they were famous
Do the Flatbush Zombies!!!!
Hey man there is a stereo error between 9:35 - 9:52 figure I’d let you know, great video like always!
It all makes sense.
Calvin Harris - Before They Were Famous
Prince before they were dead
thanks Deadmau5 that dude
0:49 Quagmire is that you?
Get Scrapped? Its Get Scraped... You clearly didn't know about him before he was famous
+Matthew Cassinelli Not many people know DJ Dead mouse.
My cousin still calls Joel dead mow 5 and he’s much older then me thank god he’s a talented architect
I remember when I was little I played Minecraft on the Xbox, and there was a text that said Deadmau5 plays Minecraft, and I was like "who the heck is dead ma five?" 😂
Martin Garrix next please
