From Jokes to Beats: A Dance Music Journey

SRS is kicking off 2024 with legendary music producer and DJ Joel Zimmerman, a.k.a. Deadmau5. Deadmau5 has had an incredibly successful music career spanning nine studio albums and seven Grammy Nominations.

In this episode, Zimmerman shares his early years coming up in Canada and the dawn of the internet music scene. He breaks down how his first critically acclaimed release came by happenstance and how he ultimately forged a new path in electronic music. Shawn and Joel also unpack how hit songs are made and what it's like to DJ to thousands of people in a digitally equipped mouse head.
