Unmasking DEATHPACT - Behind the Mask (Part Two)

In this video we'll take a look at various theories of who Deathpact may be, and put those theories to the test with as much information as possible. Will I be able to objectively unravel the mystery of Deathpact? I wish I could say yes but the answer is no. However, I’m going to show you loads of coincidences that I personally think are hard to ignore. By the end of the video you will either have a stronger factual basis on which your Deathpact theories can stand, or you will abandon your former theories as they are proven to be impossible. Either way you will have plenty of new insights into who may be behind the mask.

Thanks! Feel free to let me know if there are any particular artists you want to see

[@KingDom.mp3]

​@@audioeatswhat if you did a deep dive on the unexpected connections of EDM Look into bands and artists who independently formed careers but came from the same place. Off the top of my head I can think about Atrak and the singer from Chromeo being real life brothers. I even remember seeing this one aftermovie on youtube where two big dubstep artists revealed they went to high school together (sorry I can't remember for the life of me who it was, I think Spag Heddy was one of them, but the story definitely exists)

[@audioeats]

@@KingDom.mp3 I didn't know that about Atrak and Chromeo that's nuts! I think that's a really good idea, I should definitely do that. I know MUST DIE! and Hardy (country singer) went to high school together. Also Yheti and Toadface are brothers. There's also some previously non EDM artists who crossed over, like Breathe Carolina makes house music now.

Could Drezo be a possible member? After analyzing both their sound design and mixes they sound so similar

Another amazing video! I have also dug around looking up Kelly Lockhart and Kris Noir before you posted this video and came to the same conclusion.

[@audioeats]

Yeah I really tried hard to find them but there's a million Kelly Lockharts and a good bit of Kris Noir's too lol

But maybe they're revealing their identity in plain sight and Kelly and Kris actually are the names of the people behind Deathpact...

[@djederz]

@@audioeats that would be so funny if it was lmao. Would be one hell of a plot twist with all the other clues

[@djederz]

@@audioeats also if you havnt heard of the artist FISE, I would love a video on them. Has some connection to Deathpact and also Svdden Death. But an interesting character in all this I stumbled appon recently

[@audioeats]

I just looked him up and that's super interesting... He only has 2 songs out and his first show was at Red Rocks opening for Rezz and he played Ubbi Dubbi. Honestly idk if I could make a video on him more than 2 minutes long lol, there's hardly anything about him on the internet. Apparently he does visuals too and they're really good so maybe that's how he initially got connected to Deathpact and Rezz?

[@alecjohnson55]

One name I didn't see mentioned here is Madeon. I know there's the famous tweet where someone asked him directly if he's Madeon and he said "No" but Rezz also denied it when asked during an interview around Rezz Rocks last year. Madeon's played a bunch of Deathpact songs before they were released, Deathpact uses Madeon songs in their sets, Madeon makes a bunch of music in _very_ different styles than his normal albums, and the drum pads all give some indication!

[@audioeats]

Yeah I've seen his name pop up mainly due to the fact that he has done an ARG for a previous release, I should have included him! My next video is actually about him, but I won't be covering anything Deathpact related in it.

[@alecjohnson55]

oooh, madeon video :D

[@GodSlayerHD]

1788-L uses a near identical robo voice to Deathpact in his older sets. Check out "1788-L Live at Lights All Night 2018" liveset right at the beginning at 2:05

[@imapig1919]

My dark horse theory is that justice is involved. I don’t see the upside for an already established bass music producer to create an entirely new brand when the music isn’t drastically different from what they already produce. At the 2019 shambhala show they played a “Stress” remix as well as the melody to daft punks “da funk” using the synth from their opening to “Genesis”. They also had the justice logos as part of the visuals during those songs if I recall correctly. The song “Stress” itself feels almost like a proto deathpact song. Justice used a cross in both their main logo as well as for the name and logo to their debut album while stating that they would never perform it inverted out of respect. The DP deathpact logo looks an awful lot like an inverted cross if you connect the lines and this would also explain the anonymity to keep good on that promise. It could also explain the connection to Jean-Michel Jarre as Justice is french duo. They also seem to have slowed down quite significantly around the same time deathpact started releasing music. I think you’re right that another person is largely responsible for touring duties but from a production standpoint theres a similarity to the sound design that stands out to me. Whoever they are I really believe that its going to involve an artist far out of left field who wanted to enter the midtempo space but felt that it would contrast too heavily with their existing sound. Or im just smoking crack

[@audioeats]

Oooh I like that, I could honestly see it. And I agree that it doesn't really make sense for an established artist to start a side project that's already similar to their own sound. I think it could make sense if it was a huge group of artists that just contribute here and there, and it's just a fun thing for all of them, but if it's just one or two established artists it doesn't make sense. Part of me can't get over feeling like Odesza has had some involvement, even if it's just a little. The synth from Catalyst sounds like a slightly modified version of the one from The Last Goodbye, and Deathpact has played the part of The Last Goodbye that has that synth. I'd like to think it's a massive supergroup of diverse artists, and it's just a fun way for them to express some creativity outside the bounds of their own projects. It would be funny if in reality it's just a random group of people we've never heard of before though lol

[@imapig1919]

@@audioeats my guess is its Justice (or Odesza also fits otherwise because of all the stuff you mentioned plus the split personality/duo at shambs 2022 stuff heavily implies a duo’s involvement), Clozee (also french) and 1788-L. I saw 1788-L recently and have seen deathpact live 4 times and they have a similar stage presence. I honestly hope its never revealed because this is all so much fun to speculate on

[@FrankTelesca]

Im pretty sure this started as a collaborative project including all the artists of deadbeats and they'd just throw whoever isnt busy at the live shows but now im convinced artists outside the label might contribute as well. The concept of artists having this alternate outlet to experiment and fuck around with whatever and whoever whenever they want is pretty cool.

[@audioeats]

Yeah that's pretty much what I think too, that it's basically a superproject that all different kinds of artists have contributed to. I do think it's probably centered around deadbeats, but I'm convinced Odesza had their hand in producing Falling, Catalyst, and maybe Pretend. I could be wrong, but you could slap those on the next Odesza album and I wouldn't bat an eye.

[@eazymfne]

I wonder how they split up song royalties and booking fees for shows and festivals. The whole thing is interesting and I love deathpact. I randomly saw “them” at ubbi dubbi and it was a great show.

[@mikeness5074]

We are all in this together dp

[@h.l4650]

[@Supkev96]

I truly believe Deathpact is at sounds and is pact between multiple artists. The artists I see it being is Odesza, Rezz, 1788-L and Zeds Dead. Just would make sense that it's what it literally sounds like in being a pact.

[@audioeats]

Yeah I definitely agree, it's the only thing that seems to make sense

[@johnfalk910812]

Deathpact themselfs has actually confirmed this on twitter when explaining on how Midhaven shows worked Logistically, Deathpact Said. its Difficult to manage and organisation the teams for FOUR artist. and since i know that they are 5 members, the the fith member is the member does all of the shows Normally,but for midhaven the other 4 members got the opportunity to play.

[@cadenhowlett]

I guess it depends on which day they play, but if Nov 10, they will be playing at the same time at DUSK in tucson and EDC Orlando

[@BeyondAndBeyonder]

what about madeon he has a similar level of in-depth coding and messages within their releases does their dates coincide?

[@audioeats]

Yeah I probably should have put him in the video since they both do ARG's/cryptic releases. Someone also mentioned that Madeon has played Deathpact songs in his sets before, I didn't know about that. They have a lot of scheduling conflicts though, both upcoming as well as shows in the past.

Don't think you mentioned it, but the second Earwig festival flyer(pink) had deadmau5's font at the top right.

[@saturnv691]

Whats the background music at the start

[@audioeats]

It's just a demo track from Splice

[@saturnv691]

@@audioeats May i know which one?

[@audioeats]

I'm on a trip right now but I'll check when I get home. The file names are pretty confusing like "051_full_mix_loop_dubstep_dirty". I think that specific one is about 1:15 long so not really a full track either.

[@h.l4650]

One interesting thing I found during the REZZ and deadmau5 q&a they hosted for the release of their collab, hypnocurrency was that Joel mentioned that his favorite track from REZZ was life and death. This could go both ways though because of what joel says afterwards. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3nXY5ZqiZieack timestamp is 30:51

[@audioeats]

That's pretty interesting, I could definitely see it going either way. I think Life & Death is among her most unique tracks so it would make sense that he would pick that. But then I could also see him saying that because he was a part of it and then played dumb after. Pretty tough to tell honestly but that's still pretty interesting!

[@davidlogsdon1048]

I also have a theory that it could be either Eddie or Whipped Cream for some of the performances as well. The only thing I have to stand on that is Eddie played Chemical Bond straight up without remixing when he opened for Apashe and Whipped Cream had extremely similar sample sounds to some of deathpacts work as well. It's a far shot, but worth throwing them in the hat as well.

[@audioeats]

That's an interesting theory! Whipped Cream is Canadian so that could fit

[@Ogchampayne]

[@curtisjackson8318]

[@existalive]

I'm fairly certain Rezz is apart of Deathpact, I've seen death pact a few months ago where rezz played. Dp looked remarkably similar to rezz's body type. She wears tight pants, and death pact was wearing tight pants, and the legs looked like the same person. I also saw dp at fear factory, and I believe this was a guy. From where I was standing he was very tall and thin, with broad shoulders. I'm friends with another producer who told me 1788L is very nice while death pact came across a bit short and from my personal experience messaging dp, they are very vague when I ask about their production, whereas 1788L was very open to discussing production. Deadmau5 is a bit of a stretch for me, there's a clip about him meeting dp and a txt conversation. Deadmau5 literally told everyone on stream all the big festival shows are prerecorded to some degree, so I don't think he gives a shit about industry secrets. Also in the XLNT sound video, they got the chemical bond project file and its very different production than something deadmau5 would do, still he could dawn the mask and play for fun. Defiantly a cool project, Going to see dp on nye

[@audioeats]

Yeah I don't think Deadmau5 is involved either, seems like a big stretch. I had seen a good bit of people say they think Deadmau5 is Deathpact though so I figured it would be fun to throw in the video. But I will say, the bass in his song "Legendary" sounds extremely similar to something Deathpact would make, but that's probably just a coincidence.

[@TheManInaHat]

🌊

[@antonilya221]

I think there’s a more established dj involved, like way older than the dj’s being mentioned. When I listen to all the “interference” tracks and “soothsayer” i hear sampling that heavily reminds me of daft punk. they may not play as live deathpact but one of the two could be involved in production. their mixing is top tier

[@audioeats]

I really hope Daft Punk is involved

[@ghst_dnce]

Deathpact’s setup is a lot like Opiuo and Clozee’s. Opiuo uses the MIDI drums with drumsticks, and so does deathpact 🤔 it’s likely he’s part of the group, same with CloZee

[@audioeats]

Yeah I agree, I feel very strongly that Opiuo is involved, and I feel like Clozee may have at least been one of the 4 Deathpacts, but I feel a little less strongly about her being involved

[@ghst_dnce]

Aside from that, Opiuo also has 2 remixes now, and a song that featured deathpact. I was at Opiuo's second orchestral show at Red Rocks last year and he played "Falling" which features Deathpact. There has got to be a strong connection there.@@audioeats

[@wooksrusfamily]

Love this !! This whole project is a great idea all around honestly 🤌

[@brennanferris7400]

4:57 I saw Deathpact at Illfest 2022 in Austin TX and Rezz came on stage with them. There's still a chance that she is still part of Deathpact but I think she's just loosely involved with the project, but not part of it.

[@audioeats]

Yeah that's what I think too, she probably isn't involved in the production, but I do think she played at least one show as Deathpact (the Orlando show when they did 4 in one night). I'm not 100% on anything though, but I am fairly sold on her being the Orlando Deathpact.

[@bellasears]

Nice video, but you listen closely to the beginning of his LA midheaven set, it’s clearly stated that the entire city of Los Angeles is actually Deathpact. Myth busted.

[@craigrobertson5030]

They must have psychological advertising behind it, mastery of the arts.

[@audioeats]

Maybe so, there's definitely been an absurd amount of thought put into the project

[@FestiCatcher]

I feel like deathpact could be a team of ghost producers giving meaning to the name and the bane quote, being initially propped by their collaborators/labels to help gain traction quickly. with a team of dp djs it would give the ability to play a lot of shows at once. Just a thought with no research 😂

[@christianmayer5677]

Deathpact also split into two at hard summer

[@emuchow]

Hmm might look into btsm they wear masks, and sorta similar sounds

[@stefanscavazza8274]

After hearing that odesza "cant" be one of the deathpacts, for the scheduled 2023 FVDED in the park in Vancouver Odessa was headlining with Deathpact there as well, maybe it would have been their debut as Deathpact this year?

[@stefanscavazza8274]

FVDED was eventually canceled unfortunately but would have been some good data into this mystery, content over pt 1 and 2 has been great tho man, keep it up 💪

[@audioeats]

Yeah I could see that being a possibility

[@KavitoMusic]

I think if deadmau5 was involved, he would've most likely had a lot of influence on the digital/internet side of deathpact. I say this because of how tech savvy deadmau5 is and has always been. Plus, deadmau5 has had a few side projects in the past, and has been known to "troll" people in the past, so I wouldn't be surprised if he was contributing... Deadmau5 could even be the main deathpact and foresaw the huge manhunt and purposely made it look like deathpact and deadmau5 have too many conflicts by getting other DJs to do the live bits, resulting in "obviously" ruling him out.

[@KavitoMusic]

Also you should totally do update videos as more info comes out!!!

[@audioeats]

Yeah I might do another one eventually, since making these videos Autoerotique and 13 are both artists that I have new theories about

[@claytonwalker6811]

[@dillondejong7895]

omfg i just learned what marshmello and malaa look like

[@audioeats]

🤫

[@patricklaplante8461]

Im not sure if this could shed any light on either the Deadmau5 theory or add to any routing possibilities with who was playing at the festival. But this summer at Ile Soniq 2023 in Montreal, Deadmau5 was supposed to play a sunset set as Deadmau5 and then headline one of the stages as testpilot, but his cat died and he cancelled both sets. This happened last minute, liemt he day before or day of the set. The last minute replacement for the testpilot headliner was none other than Deathpact. This of course confirms Deadmau5 was not that deathpact. But it makes me wonder even more of what type of connection they might have.

[@audioeats]

I don't think that would necessarily mean they're connected, the festival was probably calling a lot of people to see who was available, and Deathpact may have been nearby. Plus if Deathpact is using different people for different shows, then that probably makes them a great last minute replacement assuming the different performers live in different cities. Two artists I wish I would have included in this video are 13 and Autoerotique, they're both Canadian and have fairly strong cases for being involved in Deathpact (13 maybe a little more so than Autoerotique), so I wonder if one of them was the replacement at illsoniq 🤔 Pretty impossible to say for sure though

[@patricklaplante8461]

@audioeats ya I didnt think it was a guarantee they are connected. But at the time I didn't even bat an eye at it. And now after watching these videos it made me wonder if Deadmau5 was like "I can't make it, but I know a guy". But you're right. Could just be the festival calling around.

[@Slamuraii.mp3]

actually because of the weather shit at forbidden kingdom, i remember sets got crunched n b2bs were created n i believe zeds dead played before deathpact

[@SeriouslyBadFight]

established artists is a good theory. I'm betting that there are one or two individuals that aren't established. that would make the Pact a lot more flexible. Plus it fits the Intelligence vibe, An would help with shows

[@audioeats]

Yeah that's very possible, I've had a few new theories since making this video, I think Autoerotique or 13 (or both) may be involved. Neither of those projects are active anymore and 13 is really peculiar because he was making waves when he first started putting out music (and it sounds similar to Deathpact) but then he stopped releasing after 2020. I might make a part 3 at some point down the road.

[@IToldYou2SitBch]

[@quicksmilenathan103]

DEATHPACT is a project of deadbeats! And some Mau5trap artists! I definitely hear some older works of Blanke (blank.) blanke has some experience with mid tempo and Rezz too! So I would say that Rezz, Blanke and Zeds Dead are definitely producers! If it comes to dj’s I’m sure that you’re right about Rezz she definitely played as DeathPact I’m sure that zeds dead also played as death pact! If it comes to the internet puzzle game that might be the work of a team and maybe even deadmau5 he’s a bit of a geek so I wouldn’t be surprised if he had something to do with that stuff but on the other hand is deadmau5 not really the guy to do stuff like this since he doesn’t likes to bothered too much 😂

But they are already so established and rich and will make 10x more money doing their own thing. All these artists are touring 24/7 and are already so busy. I can see them helping the project but why would they? Rezz and deathpact have such similar sound and with their super early collabs yes. And with deathpact world debuting at shambhala showing yes they have to have some sort of headline establishment it’s soooooo tuff and confusing. I don’t want to know who it is because it will ruin the project but I also need to know. Who tf is atliens too tho?

That's actually interesting you mention Rob Swire because a guy commented a few weeks ago saying his friend signed an NDA and that Deathpact is a member of a big room duo that was big back in the day, so Rob Swire could fit that description. I know they still play some shows, but really not that many since 2019. The guy who said that deleted his comment after I asked why his friend would breach the NDA to tell him, I wasn't sure if I believed him or not. What's your theory about Rob Swire? As for the other guys I'm not sure, Excision & Kai Wachi seem way too busy, and honestly I don't think their production skills are up to par with Deathpact. I'm not familiar with Gareth McGrillen.

[@dicmccoy]

@@audioeats Gareth is the other member of the Knife Party beside Rob and he's also in Pendulum as well. With Excision and Kai Wachi, there are elements in their music that I can kinda hear in Deathpact. Not super sure about it though. It could basically be anyone in the EDM space. Do we know how many people for sure is Deathpact? 2,4, I've even heard it can be 5 established DJs. Once we find out, I guarantee it will break the internet. 😆

[@audioeats]

Oh okay I could definitely see it being Gareth then. I'm going to look into Knife Party's tour dates and see if they clash with Deathpact. I think they definitely have more than one person that plays the shows because some people have said Deathpact is tall, and others have said they're short, and then sometimes they play a drum pad and sometimes they don't. I personally think it's a group, and maybe a kinda big one, but I could be totally wrong. I'll let you know what I find looking at Knife Party's tour dates!

[@audioeats]

Deathpact is playing EDC Orlando Nov 11th, Knife Party playing Home Bass Orlando the same weekend as EDC Orlando, but the schedule hasn't been released so we don't know the day yet. That festival goes from Nov 9th through Nov 13th so it could definitely work out, and would be convenient to have 2 shows in Orlando that weekend.

And most of the odesza links you mentioned center around them releasing a song together I’ve been there since that rainy opening set in 2019, they played multiple daft punk samples and visuals A single member of daft punk would have all the connections needed to forge a pact with Rezz and 1788-l as well as any connections and an actual open schedule for every single show deathpact has ever done Plus DP It just makes sense

[@Therealjusteast]

Perhaps Deathpact was the friends we made along the way 😊

[@audioeats]

I think you're right

[@chachimi13]

Now unmask REAPER!!

[@audioeats]

I'm 99% sure REAPER is Prismo

[@chachimi13]

😲 we gonna need some comparisons of their hands lmfao@@audioeats

[@audioeats]

@@chachimi13 lmao

[@CRAIGMASTER2]

​@@audioeats I'd like to hear your reasoning, Reaper seems more heavy set than Prismo

[@z3rs4l]

More like deathbrand

[@gravitasrecordings]

Definitely not Clozee, Rezz, or Opiuo.

[@audioeats]

What makes you say that?

[@gravitasrecordings]

@@audioeats I used to manage Clozee. I know and have been around Rezz and opiuo physically. Definitely not the person I worked with at LIB.

[@audioeats]

I don't think any of those 3 are the main people who perform as Deathpact (if they even have one main person that does most of the shows) but personally I feel the chances of Rezz and Clozee being the Orlando & LA Deathpacts are really high. I could be looking into coincidences too much, but the fact that Clozee was playing in LA the next night after the LA Deathpact show, and the fact she was free for a week prior is pretty convincing, and their body language seemed similar. And then with Rezz the whole thing about her having time off where she was probably in Tampa for a while before the Orlando show, plus what the person on Reddit said about the Orlando show. I didn't show any videos of the Orlando show because the only ones I could find were on Instagram and they weren't very high quality, but the body language also seemed to match Rezz. There were quite a few people on Reddit saying they've seen Deathpact multiple times now and they've been different sizes for different shows. I don't think Rezz or Clozee would be go to artists to use consistently as Deathpact because they're both fairly busy, but I'm pretty sold on them both being involved with the 4 shows in one night. I could be looking in all the wrong places though. Either way, I don't think it's the same person for every show. I'll check to see how the schedules of the artists in the video coincide with that LIB date and I'll get back to you on that.

[@audioeats]

So here's what I came up with: Rezz - Her last show before was about a week prior at Hangout Fest, and her next set was 2 days later, May 28th at LIB. She doesn't fit your description though. Clozee - Her schedule was wide open, last show before LIB DP date was late March at Ultra, and next show after was mid June at sonic bloom OPIUO - He was available, his last show before was May 21st, and next show after was June 10th Odesza - They we're available, their last show before was early March at CRSSD, and their next show after was June 10th at Gov Ball. I'm pretty sure they're both under 6ft though, maybe close like 5'10ish. Zeds Dead - They played in Toronto that day 1788-L - He was available, his last show before was December 30th 2022, and next show after was July 14th. (But like you said, he's shorter so that doesn't fit the description.) Blanke - His schedule was open, last show before was May 5th, and next show after was June 9th. He seems to be about 6ft but I can't tell for sure. Deadmau5 - he was available, his last show before was May 19th and next show after was June 3rd. I think he's on the shorter side though so that doesn't really match your description. Bonus: EPROM - He was available, his last set before was April 22nd, and his next set after was July 29th. I think he's around 6ft? But also not sure. I've seen his name thrown around a little bit in the conversation but I never looked into him much.

@@audioeats I got it now. @gravitarecordings is deathpact trying to throw us off track lmfaoooooooo

It’s four random Asian guys

You're probably right

Blanke not blank lol😂😂😂😂

[@audioeats]

It's pronounced "blank"

[@alexalvarado767]

Dude I was at the fear factory show, I feel so bad for Deathpact the production team fucked something up and the power kept getting cut. Deathpact still finished but had to use the dj booth speakers

[@audioeats]

Dang that sucks, props to Deathpact for sticking it out though. I feel like a lot of DJ's would have walked off if that happened to them.

[@alexalvarado767]

@@audioeats Yeah man I felt so bad for Deathpact we all started chanting “NOT YOUR FAULT” I’m still salty that we only got 20 minutes before everything went to shit

[@audioeats]

@@alexalvarado767 oof that's brutal it happened so early into the set! At least everyone was supportive though, that sounds like a special moment

[@emreekcreative6073]

Wake up, look at the mirror. You were Deathpact all this time.

[@Slaughtercvlt]

I feel like it's mostly Hooks from Zeds Dead

[@padoga5715]

A little fun fact for the Deathpact and Zeds Dead connections at Hulaween: During Hulaween, three of the Deathcord members texted and asked Deathpact if they can meet them while still at the festival and Deathpact agreed to during the last set of the night which was Zeds Dead performing

[@audioeats]

Oh that's really interesting!

[@deathcord]

Nope. We met with them during LSDream.

[@padoga5715]

@@deathcord ah okay, my mistake!

[@brandtanderson6846]

If you listen to Pulsar Beam by 1788-L you hear all Deathpact samples. He's heavily into the producing side of the group.

[@audioeats]

Good point, I've never noticed that

[@jaysati01]

Should look into 13

[@audioeats]

Oh that's really interesting I've never heard them mentioned in relation to DP before! I could definitely see that, they haven't released anything since 2020

[@quicksmilenathan103]

It’s easy death pact is a collab or project between a bunch of deadbeat artists
