An FL Studio user created a song with these samples.

Being born in 1981 would indicate his interaction with IRC probably pre-existed his professionally published career, and even possibly when IRC was all there was for real-time chat on the internet 76.21.107.221 ( talk) 00:53, 24 September 2011 (UTC) Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.137.35.141 ( talk) 04:40, (UTC) Why isn't there a date or year attributed to this? It makes it seem like everything that pre-existed Billboard didn't exist. Does anyone know of any IRC server at any time anywhere that only allows nicks of 8 characters? 86.169.180.177 ( talk) 00:35, 25 February 2012 (UTC)ĭeadmau5 played on need for speed hot pursuit cause he is AWEsoeME and better than fat-boy(gay) slim I don't believe he'd fabricate the story but it would be good to explain this with a bit more detail. It's a small point but I'm not sure why this story is being passed around when it contains these inconsistences. IRC nicks have been maximum of 9 characters for as long as the RFC1459 (1993), so he could have used 'deadmouse' easily enough, aside from which even if he had discovered an IRC server with max nick length of 8 characters, he could have used 'deadmaus' so the story basically doesn't hold up. Youtube Deadmau5 Channel reference - Gbirley ( talk) 00:10, (UTC) It might have been a chat server but I'm afraid I'm calling bullshit on the IRC story. Thus the nick is shortened to 8 by having deadmau5. The crossed eyes is synonymous with an object or person that is dead.ĭead Mouse is abbreviated due to the Internet Relay Chat server network he was using at the time only allowing 8 characters in length and therefore dead mouse being 9-10 depending if a space is included. His original name was Dead Mouse and is an anecdote of a mouse that has crawled in through the exhaust fan of a tower computer and died, this too is where deadmau5's image of a dead mouse with crossed out eyes. Deadmau5's name originates from the computer internet chat client Internet Relay Chat.
