AWAL TRAPS DEADMAU5

deadmau5 has signed a worldwide recordings deal with Kobalt’s recording company AWAL. The new deal focuses on deadmau5’s latest project, mau5ville, and will include new music and remixes to be released in the coming months.

The deal offers a full range of services, including global marketing, campaign coordination and global distribution. mau5ville: level 1 was released 7/13; AWAL and deadmau5 previously worked together on Where’s the drop? and W:/2016ALBUM/.

Ron Cerrito, AWAL President, North America, said of the deal, “deadmau5 [Joel Zimmerman] epitomizes what it means to be an independent artist today—everything from his entrepreneurial drive and work ethic to his ability to authentically connect with fans across the globe. He has always been a forward-thinking music pioneer, which is why we couldn't be more thrilled about his choice to partner with AWAL again so we can help support his vision for mau5ville and help take his project to the next level.”
