Straight from Toronto, bringing with him some of the newest and most exciting sounds to come out of the electronic music world, Deadmau5 (pronounced ‘dead mouse’) rocks Doha on Dec 7. Taking over 7 at La Cigale, he’s been recently voted the #4 DJ in the world, and is one of the up and comers and literal movers and shakers in the DJ world. Heaped with more awards than is fully reasonable, he’s even got a video game avatar! He’s worked with many of them to create one-of-a-kind mixes. In fact, rumours abound of a mash up with Lady Gaga in the works. He’s also known for being grumpy should one try to categorize him, and has been known to wear a giant cartoon mouse head. On his head. On stage. We’re not kidding and we’re more than willing to go just to see that. Tickets are QR250, available at La Cigale in 7 and Madison Piano Bar, Virgin Megastores, Crepaway at Ramada Junction and www.virginmegastore.me.
Deadmau5, 7, La Cigale, Dec 7. Tickets QR250. (4428 8888).
