Deadmau5 Shares Playlist with Every Song Ever Played On BBC Show
Mau5 fans, Deadmau5 has given you something truly special today. The Synth King has created a Public Spotify Playlist that includes every song he’s ever played on his BBC Show.
This playlist contains exactly 208 technologic songs that will have you mesmerized and wanting more throughout all of its entirety. The playlist includes music from some great artists such as Lane 8, No Mana, ATTLAS, Feed Me, Rezz, and many more. It also includes some of Deadmau5’s self-produced tracks such as “Polaris,” “Legendary,” and “bad at titles.” This playlist is one that all Mau5 fans should really take the time to listen too.
For context, we’re talking about deadmau5’s BBC Radio 1 Residency, the recurring guest-mix slot he’s held down on the station, and outlets tracking the same drop clocked the runtime at somewhere around 22 hours and 42 minutes of nonstop music. That is an absurd amount of listening material from one guy’s radio slot alone, and it’s basically a crash course in everything deadmau5 has been spinning behind the scenes — from techno and tech house cuts to deep, atmospheric stuff you’d never expect to hear blasting out of a festival main stage. Reportedly, he even gave the whole thing the tongue-in-cheek title “for a lack of a better playlist,” which honestly feels about right for a guy known for song titles like “bad at titles.”
What makes this playlist genuinely useful (beyond just being a flex) is that it doubles as a discovery tool. If you’ve ever wanted a direct line into the underground artists deadmau5 personally co-signs, this is it — a curated, no-filler rundown of exactly what’s been rotating through his sets, saved you the trouble of Shazam-ing his radio show in real time.
It also says a lot about deadmau5’s actual taste versus the sound most casual fans associate him with. His own catalog is packed with progressive house anthems, but the artists showing up in this playlist skew heavily toward deeper, more underground techno and tech house — names that don’t necessarily fill festival main stages but absolutely move rooms on their own terms. For a guy as famously outspoken and online as deadmau5, dropping a resource like this feels less like a marketing move and more like him just wanting to share what he’s actually been geeking out over.
Between the sheer volume of tracks and the range of styles packed into it, this playlist alone could keep a dedicated fan busy for the better part of a day. It’s a rare kind of transparency from an artist at deadmau5’s level — most headliners guard their radio setlists pretty closely, but he just handed the whole thing over on a silver, public platter.
