Get Scraped is the debut studio album by deadmau5 (Joel Zimmermann), self-released in 2005 through Zoolook. Originally distributed as a demo CD, the album was later made available digitally in a 15-track form that omits two tracks from the physical release. The record documents the earliest phase of Zimmermann's developing production style, blending drum machine rhythms, synthesizer textures, and playful song titling that would become signature traits. Songs like 'Intelstat' and 'Careless' show an artist still forming his sonic identity, drawing on breakbeat, downtempo, and early progressive house influences before settling on the hypnotic long-form builds that would define his later work. Get Scraped is an important document of pre-fame deadmau5 and is frequently cited by fans tracking the arc of his production evolution.
