Background

Mau5ville: Level 1's release date was first revealed through various store pages on July 3, 2018.[7][8] The cover art was also uploaded to Deadmau5's Twitter account.[9] However, the EP was officially announced on July 12, 2018, the day before its final release on July 13, 2018.[10] The Beatport exclusive version of the EP was released with two additional bonus mixes of "Monophobia".[11] The EP is named after Deadmau5's former online server on the sandbox video game Minecraft.[12]

The opening track, "Monophobia", serves as the return of long-time collaborator Rob Swire from Pendulum and Knife Party, who had previously collaborated with Deadmau5 on his song "Ghosts 'n' Stuff" in 2009.[lower-alpha 1][13] The song was also remixed by other artists who have released on the record label Mau5trap, including producers Attlas, Latroit, and Rinzen. A music video for "Monophobia" was released on Deadmau5's YouTube channel on July 16, 2018.[14][15]
