Deadmau5’s current CUBE V3 Tour is named after his signature self-programmed projector set piece. The Canadian DJ and producer recently studied how to write code specifically so he could generate one-of-a-kind visuals at his shows in real time, rather than rely on recordings. LED light baths and rafter-filling graphics will not be in short supply, as the artist is known for continually leveling up. With shakedown grips and saber-esque blips, his latest single, “Fall,” is a seven-minute beckon from the mask’s stark side. Supporting act Qrion’s songs—“Foggy August,” “Safeway Sushi”—are electronic microcosms of her hometown of Sapporo, Japan, and current base in San Francisco.
