A Deadmau5 Coffee Table Book Is Coming Soon

Deadmau5 will release a limited-edition coffee table book covering his 25-year career on Dec. 8. It is titled book_title_goes_here: 25 years of deadmau5.

The book will include archival images, live photos and behind-the-scenes shots from the producer’s career, including pictures of friends and collaborators Tommy Lee, DJ Aero, Steve Duda and Sofi. It will also examine the technology behind deadmau5’s world-building and stage productions including the cube, which premiered at Coachella 2010 and became a gold standard for live electronic shows.

“It’s been a wild ride since I started in this business,” the artist born Joel Zimmerman said in a statement. “It’s neat I can share some of the content captured over the years in this unique way with my fans.”

“Joel trusted us with 25 years of his archive,” added Ryo Sanada of Soi Books, who orchestrated the project. “It took more than two years and a lot of hard drives to do it justice, but we got there.”

A total of 2,000 copies will be printed. The mau5hop Edition accounts for 1,200 copies and features a die-cut slipcase, a red metallic foil logo, black metallic page edges and silver and laser-blue metallic inks. It also includes cube schematics printed on architectural tracing paper and two vinyl sticker sheets chosen by deadmau5. The edition is available for pre-order now and will not be reprinted.

The remaining 800 copies are the Classic Edition, which does not include stickers. They will go on sale at selected retailers on Dec. 8.
