deadmau5 Quiz: Guess the Song & Test Your Trivia
Few dance producers make you wait like Joel Zimmerman does. Guess the deadmau5 song from the instant hooks of 'Ghosts 'n' Stuff' and 'I Remember' to 'Strobe', a ten-and-a-half-minute track whose beat lands only after a long, patient intro. Test your trivia on the voices behind the hooks, Rob Swire on 'Ghosts 'n' Stuff' and Haley Gibby on 'I Remember', and on the producer who mocked press-play DJ sets from inside a giant lit cube. See how well a deadmau5 quiz exposes the mouse behind the helmet.

deadmau5 Trivia: The Mouse and the Cube
Stage-name lore, guest singers and the man who called out push-button DJ sets.
How Well Do You Know deadmau5's Builds
His catalogue climbs from instant hooks to a ten-minute build, so difficulty rises with runtime.
The mouse-head singles every player knows
Three tracks carry most of the easy points. 'Ghosts 'n' Stuff', 'I Remember' and 'Strobe' are the ones players place from the first loop, the deadmau5 singles that turn up on every dance playlist.
Strobe and the long build with no quick drop
'Strobe' runs about ten and a half minutes, and its beat only lands after a long, unhurried intro rather than a fast festival drop. 'Some Chords' and 'The Veldt' share that patient mood, though both reach their peak sooner than 'Strobe' does, so a clip can still slip past before the payoff most dance tracks hand you.
The guest voices behind the hooks
Rob Swire of Pendulum sings 'Ghosts 'n' Stuff', while Haley Gibby is the voice on 'I Remember', a track deadmau5 co-produced with Kaskade rather than a vocal feature. Several other singles lean on a guest hook instead of deadmau5's own voice, so the singer is often the giveaway.
The mau5 behind the mask: purist and provocateur
Plenty of points here reward fans of the man, not just the music. He needled push-button DJ sets, toured inside a giant illuminated cube, and handed his albums joke names like 'Random Album Title' and '4x4=12', all fair game for trivia.
