EDM Team Anthems

Deadmau5 Produced the New Toronto Maple Leafs Anthem

— October 18, 2016 — Lifestyle
The Toronto Maple Leafs have harnessed the team's stature as a major market franchise with a wealth of celebrity fans, enlisting famed EDM producer and Ontarian Deadmau5 to write the new anthem. True to Deadmau5's unique style, the new Leafs anthem is a pulsating and enlivening electronic track with a melodic composition that subtly references the old organ anthems of teams gone by.

Deadmau5 and the Leafs franchise unveiled the new anthem at the teams first Hockey Night in Canada appearance. During the pre-game ceremonies, fans were treated to a light show at the rink in the Air Canada Center, and Deadmau5 himself made an appearance, getting driven around the rink on a Zamboni while wearing a new Leafs jersey.
