The word “XYZ” can refer to several things such as the top-level domain name or the 80’s hard rock band. “XYZ” is also the latest single from world-renowned electronic musician deadmau5, whom released it back on June 17. The legendary progressive house star’s latest track has fast tracking synths and driving beats. These synths and beats jointly dominate as a nine-and-a-half-minute instrumental. “XYZ” from deadmau5 serves as the lead single from the We Are Friends Vol. 11 label compilation, set to release on mau5trap later this year.
