The news about deadmau5‘ upcoming 2-disc album has been floating around for months now but without much details about its release. But now in an interview with inthemix, mau5 has revealed that the album is scheduled to be out sometime after April, speaking in his typical outspoken fashion he says  “I have the digital masters ready to fucking go, but they have to run it through the marketing machine and the release schedule and what we’re going to do to ‘help push the album’ fuckin’ bullshit. So I’m just gonna let them do that, but it takes more than two months.”

The 25-track double album which is scheduled to be out under Astralwerks Records will see a flurry of fresh new tracks. When asked whether his fans would have heard anything on the track list before? he replied “Yeah, probably, a couple of things here and there, I’m confident that there’s enough fresh stuff on there that it’s going to attract new fans. That’s kind of the play here – not do a continuation of what I’ve been doing for the last four albums; that’s just stupid.”

Joel further gave details about the album saying that “I’m trying to just do an album that if you don’t know your fuckin’ head from your arse you’ll walk through the record store, see it and go, ‘Ah, this could be cool.’ Plus there’s a couple of tracks on there that are quite radio-friendly, not even dance music, that I’m going to put out as singles just to attract that kind of shit. So it’s a long-game strategy at this point.”

After listening to some fresh music from deadmau5 during his India tour, we are very much excited for his upcoming double-album which will be packed with 25 brand new tracks!
