Change Pronounciation from 'deadmouse' to 'dead mou five'. Source: deadmou5 here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSfFyXkC2U4&t=6410s Pingger (talk) 20:40, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
Not done. Not quite sure if he's making a joke here or something. We have multiple sources that say "deadmouse" is the right way to say it, so we'll keep that unless new sources report on it. ◢ Ganbaruby! (talk) 20:47, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) In the linked video, he says "deadmouse" ten seconds later, so I think it's a joke. Primefac (talk) 20:48, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
Removal of [ (Better Sounding On Drugs)] in paragraph 2
mau5 and Steve Duda's collaborative acronym stands for Blue Screen Of Death. However they have left this ambiguous and a song of theirs is titled BSOD - BSOD (Blue Screen Of Death - Better Sounding On Drugs). The lyrics of the song repeat "Better, sounding, on drugs". Judging by his nature of using paradox themed titles I believe deadmau5 made the song subversive on purpose. Chauliodusi (talk) 03:09, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- If there is a source, it can be changed. Primefac (talk) 12:18, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- Two conflicting sources. I propose it should be left as the acronym alone without assuming what it stands for. [1] => "Produced with his pal Steve Duda in 2006, “This Is the Hook” is a house track, Zimmerman says, “about how simple it is to make a house track.” As the drums pound and the synth line chugs, a computer voice leads a guided tour of the cliches on display: “Now it is time for the breakdown….Let’s filter the high-hat….Let’s filter the chords…” Calling themselves BSOD (an acronym for Blue Screen of Death, a Windows-themed joke), the pair posted the song on Beatport.com, a dance-music version of iTunes, where it went to Number One. “We were like, ‘What the fuck?'” Zimmerman says. “I figured that if I took this more seriously I could actually make something of it.”" [2] => "B.S.O.D. (which traditionally stands for ‘blue screen of death’, jargon for the dreaded Windows error message; the duo claims the acronym stands for Better Sounding On Drugs)" Chauliodusi (talk) 06:37, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
