Deadmau5 and Madeon destroy Sonar

Deadmau5 took his audiovisual show, an impressive media display that mixes video, lights, and computer-generated three-dimensional images to Barcelona last weekend for the almighty Sonar festival. Joel Thomas Zimmerman is the tech generation personified that began writing songs on a completely self-taught basis in his bedroom, influenced by chiptune, the hacker spirit and a passion for technology. A few years later, he is headlining the best festivals in the world. This is the reason why...



At just 18 years old, Hugo Pierre Leclercq, known as Madeon is an electropop phenomenon. In his studio in Nantes, Madeon began to attract attention with songs like "Shuriken" and "For You," which mixed pop, trance, house and electro with tremendous effectiveness. A few remixes later (for Pendulum, Deadmau5 and Yelle), he is playing at Sonar.
