Data Insight
here's the drop! is a 2019 remix album on mau5trap built entirely around deadmau5's 2018 orchestral record where's the drop?, whose arrangements were created with musical director Gregory Reveret. Each of the 15 orchestral versions (marked "(ov)") is handed to a different guest producer, so deadmau5 supplies the underlying compositions while artists such as Morgan Page, Tinlicker, Sian, Pig&Dan, No Mana, Spencer Brown, Matt Lange, and PEEKABOO reinterpret them. Standouts include Spencer Brown's nine-minute take on fn pig and PEEKABOO's remix of strobe, deadmau5's signature track. The result trades the orchestral original's strings and piano for dance-floor and club-oriented productions while keeping the source melodies intact.
here's the drop is a 2023 deadmau5 release blending progressive house, electro, and ambient elements. It features several vocal collaborations. Classification as a studio album is unverified, see dataNote.
