deadmau5 and Lights are back with a new collaborative single entitled “When The Summer Dies.” This is the second track they’ve made together following 2018’s “drama free.”
Where “drama free” was a subtle downtempo offering, “When The Summer Dies,” sees deadmau5—real name Joel Zimmerman—harness his classic razor-sharp progressive house style. Lights keeps up with Zimmerman on every beat using pointed attacks in her delivery while maintaining a bouncy feel.
Coming this Friday, July 23 is an alternative mix for the track with a music video coming soon after. The music video will be especially impactful as it will be created entirely within a new gaming experience called Manticore. This virtual platform comes from PIXELYNX, Zimmerman’s new company he started with Detroit techno royalty Richie Hawtin.
“When The Summer Dies” featuring Lights is out now on mau5trap. Listen to the full track below:
