	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>"Move for Me," Deadmau5's collaborative single with Kaskade, went to No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart in 2008. Random Album Title, released that same&nbsp;year, was certified gold in the DJ's native Canada and hit No. 13 on Billboard's Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart. 
	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>Deadmau5 earned his first career GRAMMY nomination for 2008 for Best Remixed Recording for "The Longest Road (Deadmau5 Remix)." He made his GRAMMY stage debut with <a href="https://www.grammy.com/grammys/artists/foo-fighters" target="_blank">Foo Fighters</a>, <a href="https://www.grammy.com/grammys/artists/lil-wayne" target="_blank">Lil Wayne</a> and David Guetta during a tribute to electronic music at the <a href="https://www.grammy.com/grammys/awards/54th-annual-grammy-awards" target="_blank">54th GRAMMY Awards</a> in 2012. 
	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>The DJ incorporated lyrics from a fan's tweet into his song "The Veldt," which Rolling Stone named one of the 50 best songs of 2012. 
	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>In 2016 Deadmau5 partnered with Urban Fitness 911 for a festival VIP package contest to raise funds for the organization's mission of addressing the disparity of academic skills, health and fitness among teenagers in low income communities.</li>
