deadmau5 ft. Gerard Way – Professional Griefers (Original + Instrumental Mix)

Posted by Middy on August 14, 2012

In anticipation of his September 25th album, “>album title goes here<", Deadmau5 has released his much awaited single "Professional Griefers that he premiered in spectacular fashion last year at Lollopalooza with his new multi-cube setup. The original mix features vocals from My Chemical Romance's Gerard Way, who provides a frustrated, punk top line to the track that I am not really that big a fan of, though I have never liked My Chemical Romance, so it isn't surprising. I would have liked to see Deadmau5 go a different direction with the vocals here to work better with this phenomenal instrumental. The instrumental mix is superb, showing off the varied sounds and capabilities of the veteran Canadian producer. It brings us to the harder sounds that were on full display on 4x4=12 with deft key work and a thumping bass line. The album is available for pre-order today on iTunes and will features this track as well as his rather dissapointing collab with Cyrpus Hill "Failbait“, the previously released “Maths” and his hit single “The Veldt“. Full track list for the album after the jump with samples of some of the songs.
