  • I Wonder if he gave credit to the guys behind Cygnus X as well. They weren't the original creators, but I bet Deadmau5 just remix their version rather than made his own version of the funeral march

  • I was there

  • the original from Cygnus (Trance) is the Best!!....fuck this lame Electro Shit! Deamau5, a Cat will eat you! :-)

  • why armin is not original ... a 50% of songs has been token from all the sets of tiesto

  • RIP Queen Mary II

  • Earlier i said this was a sick ass remix. Now that I've listened to this song more than once I retract my statement... This is an OK remix at a sick party with an awesome crowd turnout.

  • I think if I had heard that when I went through my one year extacy honeymoon I would of probably died. Brought back a lot of feelings and memories. Thank you.

  • i dont have rice mon.

  • Sick ass remix

  • Or the spelling

  • I dont think that Henry Purcell cared about the cradits....back then it was a honor matter...and i think that Henry couldnt be more proud that his mellody is loved by 1000 of people in our time

  • "In the constellation of Cygnus, there lurks a mysterious invisible force. The black hole of Cygnus X-1" "Six stars of of The Northern Cross, in mourning for their sisters loss, in a final flash of glory .... nevermore to grace the night." (Rush)

  • way too slow. if you´re used to the original you fall asleep when you listen to this remix here

  • @djdingdong2000 I felt the original was too fast. This kinda puts a heaviness and a sense of anticipation to each note. Plus the spiraling never ending progression higher and higher. Deadmau5 sure picked a good song to remix :)

  • I listen to the twice and i can see that's inspired by Henry Purcell (Funeral of Queen Mary 2). But Cygnus x includes the crescendo and the variation of the tonalities. That song is a song for the funeral of a queen but Cygnus x remix is epic and it is beautiful too. It's a real variation and not a simple remix. The rythm and the tonality gives some energy and happiness to that song. It's enough for me to consider Cygnus x as a great composer of trance music.

  • Who gives a monkeys nuts how old the song is and who originally wrote it? People are havin good time to good sounds, no ones robbing anyone of anythin just funkin it up for a new generation and as for being dumb well i think i speak for all of us when i say... Do one !!!

  • The audience is even dumber than the music, and that's a challenge.

  • thanks for ruining cygnus x - orange theme, deadmau5hit

  • Comment removed

  • i love grey but hate black what the fook does is matter we all have difo taste that's what make the world go around

  • Sowas von Geil ***** Delüx

  • @CaterpillarKiller :

    This does not sound like Purcell's funeral march or Clockwork Orange.

    Have a look at Edvard Grieg's piece Aase's death.

  • wow this is fucking stupid why would you see this live

  • PARASITES

  • @McIrishMAN1 You're obviously not following directions, close your eyes imagine 0:02, lol.

  • yawwwnnnn deadmous5

  • i don't care if deadmau5 is overrated/hated/mainstream. i like this remix. we all have different tastes on music.

  • You are free.... to watch what the TV tells you.... you are free to listen to what the TV adverts tell you.... you are free to listen to what Mixmag tells you... you are free to buy shitty compilations the TV tells you

  • Utter turd.

  • I wish he would do a remix of Amphetamine by Drax... oh and energy52 while he is at it..

  • I wish he would do a remix of Amphetamine by Drax...

  • Im going to see him in victoria park on june the 11th. Aswell as some other peeps. I like deadmau5, but i do think alot of his music sounds the same :/ As good as it is i couldnt listen to it all day

  • this deadmau5 track is only written in the same chords like the orange theme,thats all..

  • So bring it; don't know wtf is the freaking hold up.  :(

  • ORANGE THEME Is actually bye Henry Purcell (1659 - 1695)

    its used in the movie "Clockwork Orange" bye stanley kubrick

    So deadmau5 has the right to name it however he wantßs to...

    and guys whos definition of music doesnt go beyond Techno, most of the really big trance tunes are actually early classic music played with a synth and a base drumm

    wannabee music knowers...XD

  • @hausmeister64 I have to add that clockwork orange theme was composed by Wendy Carlos (then credited as Walter Carlos). If you listen clear Deadmau5 version is not exact sample of Cygnusx version. It seems that both were created seperatly from movie theme.

  • @chronius9 offcors it's different if u ask me deadmau5 version is 70000000 times better

    yeah the movie composer is wendy carlos, but the one theme that's used in those tracks is a small part bye henry purcell

  • deadmau 5 the worst fake and gay electro dj ever

  • @EBIXone he got a nice dome piece tho

  • @EBIXone ur kidding right?

  • Love this song

    Listen to my mix people :D

    /watch?v=XhExLi--6n8

  • i want то ве there!!! i tyed from Russua

  • ATB could probably have made a cracking remix of this

  • SNOOOOOOOOZE FEST!  Deadmau5 is SOOOOOOOOO Overrated! Good Lord!

  • Guys? Deadmau5 is famed for his progressive and dance HOUSE MUSIC. Cygnus X made techno and trance.

    Two different genres.

  • zajebiste 

  • deadmau5 is a huge faggot.

  • @hatefuIIkat well we all know you would like the mau5 to be gay so you could get fucked real nice up the ass by him....and stop being homophobic.....60% of homophobic people are gay who are scared of coming out the closet.....you know something about this innit?......shush and enjoy music from the Best DJ of the 21th century.....

  • @semthezeb ur a slonk... where did u get that statistic from.. biggest load of crap i've ever heard. xD

  • You gotta understand that Cygnus X and Deadmau5 are completley different aspects of electronica.

  • it's too tame....like the original better

  • Cygnus x is a better producer. This sounds like washed up flat medicore poncey recycled trance

  • this look ridiculous. wheres the dancing? looks like a bunch of zombies staring at a speaker playing a four on the floor beat ....oh wait they are.

  • I don't get, how ppl can be glad about the funeral music!!

    At the same time average ppl will call J.S.Bach music funeral music,

    actually there is not special funeral music written by J.S.Bach!!

    Well, world is weird...

  • Where can I buy/download this song? I really want it.

  • ~ magic ~

  • The original Henry Purcell version and Cygnus X's version sound very different.

    Cygnus X massively changed the sequence of chords and melody from the original.

    When Deadmau5 made his version, he followed (ripped) Cygnus X' version rather than the original. Which in turn, makes this a remix of Cygnus X' Orange Theme, which itself was a remix of A Clockwork Orange, which was a remix of the original.

  • @feralferret after listening to the movie theme, Cygnus X' version, this version and Henry Purcell's funeral theme, I agree.

  • I really don't 'get' this 'remix'. It's totally flattened the impact and energy of the original (including those 1999 remixes), and although I enjoy the chords, this just leaves me dead. The build up was absolutely nondescript. But each to their own.

  • Yeah, you're all stupid. This song is about 316 years old. It was originally written by Henry Purcell for the funeral of Queen Mary II of England in 1694. Yes, it is true, Deadmau5 gave credit to Purcell in a Facebook posting a while back where he showed how his song "Clockwork" evolved from 1694 to 1971 when Wendy Carlos made a version for Stanley Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange" on up to when he released his version of the song.

  • @CaterpillarKiller At last someone who knows their music. Saved me the time.

  • @CaterpillarKiller no need to call somebody stupid. heck, i bet 99% of the world did not know it was orginally made 316 years ago. i know i sure did not, but a lot of people do know it from a clockwork orange, so thats probably why deadmau5 named it clockwork. i like the name. and think his version is beyond amazing. he definitely did use the same punchline to it, but it really is a whole new song.

  • Comment removed

  • one of the best remixes of a classic you no you like it imagine

  • sorry guys i dont like this version. I like the Cygnus X one far more this sounds quite slow and lethargic to me. Maybe its my taste am more in to hard house, TDV and such. The orange theme was one of the first tracks i listen to over 15 yrs ago maybe me change from more mainstream stuff i might be being bais slightly.....

  • yeeeahh!!

  • It is because the topic is called Clockwork and is of deadmau5

  • Deadmau5 remixed it you fucking tards.... get a clue. He called it Clockwork due to the original music being from "The Clockwork Orange"... god some of you need to do your homework.

  • this ismoe clockwork than cygnus I dont like the cygnus track and they are both from the same source

  • Great song. Doesn't matter who the artist is.

  • YOU'RE ALL WRONG THEY ALL STOLE IT FROM MOZART'S UNRELEASED ALBUM

  • @eravacre does the unreleased work has a name? this melody is right out of Edvard Grieg's 'Death of Ase'

  • @tranzenic No it really isn't. It's Henry Purcell.

  • @eravacre no shit sherlock

  • look at him it loks like he takes all the glory when he claps his hands

  • @AgitoKun117 that's not deadmau5 its armin van buuren u retard.

  • @ImXiaoTiger i know its not deadmau5 idiot wtf its cyngus song dumbass

  • This isn't a remix, this song is called Clockwork, and it's by deadmau5.

  • @rollercoasterrob2

    na, its a remix.... of a remix

  • Cygnus X was NOT the creator of this Song. Look up Purcell - March / Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary. There you will see the ORIGINAL song.

    Cygnus X's interpretation of the above song is no more "original" than Deadmau5's

  • everybody shut the fuck up all of you are so thick it is not even comprehend able. Cygnus X did not create this melody, they used it from the movie The Clockwork Orange.

    Hence why deadmau5 called it clockwork, not The Orange Theme Remix

  • his mouth, and it spreads like a wildfire... Cygnus x would of allowed him to use it, he wouldn't of just stood by and let someone he didn't want to take it, its called copyrights, the ARTIST says who is violating it, not anyone else... he renamed it probably to give it a rebirth and bring it from the back of the shadows to a new realm of mainstream

  • omg... guys, it doesn't matter who created it, its beautiful man, look how it brings all of these people together, no matter what part of the world their from or what they believe in, what there morals are anything... there all happy smiling and dancing with each other as one whole, as a human race, as a single body or entity entitled to do so by an undiscriminating force called music... its disembodying, its amazing... hes not taking credit for it, he never said he did, people just put shit in

  • hello but this track is not what you say, this track is originally from deadmau5, sorry to say but you're wrong

  • Ok I probably know a lot more about music than you can handle..I've been listening to this kind of music for a long time now and I also listen to minimal techno tech house and he's producing mediocre music now compared to what he used to produce anyway why do you feel that it's necessary to say that..it's just a damn song..get a life people like you shouldn't be allowed to leave comments..all you really just did is cause a riot..that's all your comment is good for..next time think before you say

  • I think that Clockwork is 10 times better than Orange Theme. Clockwork is my favorite Deadmau5 track.

  • what an ass deadmau5 mixxed it and he thinks he made it the remix himself even though its his song he just takes all the glory like that

  • both of the songs are based on the movie A Clockwork Orange. they are both a version of the theme song you fucks.

  • to clarify things. cygnus x's clockwork orange wasn't an original either. here is how the time line goes.

    One of the songs from the movie "clockwork orange" was a remake of a fueral song. then cygnus x made a rework of it. then deadmau5 made a remix of it.

  • This is the reason why Deadmau5 can be a piece of crap. He has given himself plenty of oppurtunities for an amazing drop but he chooses not to. the audience is just listening to the same loop for maybe a good 4 minutes. yes they are at armin live but i would still be upset. THe orange theme is an amazing classic techno song and he has just spit in Cygnus X's face. He has a PERFECT oppurtunity to transform everything but he drops it the same way he did in the beggining of the vid. deadmau5 ehhhh

  • CygnusX - The Orange Theme! A classic of trance melodies! ;D

  • To you people who claim to know your music, this isn't by CYNGUS X or DEADMAU5!!!!, For like the a millionth time- the original is 100's of years old and is by Henry Purcell (1659~1695) and is called 《Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary》Z. 860. This is just a spin off his song for Queen Mary II's funeral, thats why it is soo emotional!!! Check out my youtube channel for my remix of it!!!

  • someone who knows there music! @EmmanuelOfficial / prefer the eye q mix ;)

  • clockwork love it!!!!!

  • yeah this is called clockwork by deadmau5. gotta know your stuff......

  • the original mix is called Cygnus X - The Orange Theme

  • OMFG people. the theme from a clockwork orange isnt owned by cygnus x or deadmau5 or whoever the hell remixed the song first. to the poster, yes ignorance is bliss. but you yourself is ignorant.

    This song is called "Theme from a Clockwork Orange (Beethoviana)" by a composer named, Wendy Carlos. AKA Walter Carlos. Yes, this song was composed by a transexual. Do your research on the movies wikipedia page.

    So, ignorance is bliss, all these people ranting on producers n stuff. stfu and research.

  • @supercussion6590 Well I wouldn't do my research using wikipedia.. this is actually a melody created from some guy named Henry in the 1600's as I've heard lol

  • @RedzDevilz why not check wikipedia? cause its not reliable. wikipedia has its own sources that you can check it from. wikipedia isnt as bad as people say it is. i know when to trust wikipedia and when not to. anyway. if it WAS created in the 1600's then the song/melody would be in something the music business calls "public domain" meaning that anyone can use the song without copyright issues. like jingle bells.

  • very nice work i think

  • I remember : Armin Only 2008 i was on the dancefloor at this moment

  • what a crap mix, if you compare with this one, The Orange Theme (Moonman's Orange Juice Mix)

  • @innercitydk

    its an amazing track, regardless which remix u listen to. hypnotic and bouncy, perfect for recreational drugs or not.

    i look forward to your mix :D

  • Actually its from the movie A Clockwork Orange. So the title is spoton :-) Whether or not its a remix or a new interpretation of the original movietheme can be discussed. However this was THE track (Cygnus X - Orange theme) that started my passion for electronic music. I have heard that track so many times i cant even count it. I absolutely love this version. Tiesto did it a few years ago as well. Also an excellent mix. Think ill do it myself next :P

  • This has got to be the hardest tune on the planet to mix in a set!  Original Hooj Choons, cygnus X, Orange theme. Nice work deadmau5. What a timeless CLASSIC WhOoP wHoOp !!!!!!!!

  • I can tell you why theres a confusion, deadmau5 works his magical charm" to redefine the ever so classic cygnusX THE ORANGE THEME to find the clubber in the crowd with an armin t shirt on! hahaha. What a TuNeeeee

  • who gives a fuck who originally made this song. It is good from both sides of the field so SSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHH, music is playing.

  • WOWO, credit to the original, but WOWO, maybe this should be the og

  • hahaha everyone is rolling.

  • I HATE MC's, fuking dickhead wankers, they ruin the set's

  • @gharpur

    totaly agree

  • Does anyone know the name of the song at the end of this one?

  • przeciez to jest kurwa Deadmau5-clockwork do huja

  • Ale grane w secie ;p

  • clockwork -> clockwork orange (movie) -> orange theme

    or not :P

  • This is some hawwt shit

  • this song reminds me of a particular breakfast cereal. i cant remember what its called but it tastes like honey and orange i think. i hated the cereal but i like the song.

  • THIS IS THE ORANGE THEME ! ... I DONT KNOW Y DEADMAU5 TRY AND MAKE IT ONE OF HIS OWN BY NAMING IT CLOCKWORK ?! ... this track is super melodic fukkk !!!!!!

  • @dherrera175 well i might of thot it was after the film "a clockwork orange" mau5 does a remake of theorange theme and calls it clockwork... perhaps? whoknows...

  • uh no you dick!!!! this is "Deadmau5 - Clockwork (Original Mix)", Cygnus X and Deadmau5 just both just made their own version of the theme from A Clockwork Orange, which is a remake of some old shit in the 1600s

  • both songs are based on the clockwork orange movie theme

  • I saw Imagine show in 2008 at Hordern Pavilion Sydney. I t was a big asss night. unforgettable magic. Thanks legends work

  • This is clockwork.

  • the people look dead and tired , a few jumpers here or there....

  • Deadmau5 > Armin van Buuren

  • you said it

  • This clockwork by deadmau5

  • Erol Alkan>All - this is repeated mid nineties pish,

  • wait isnt this clockwork?

  • where can i get this version remix i like it

  • this is clockwork!

  • Please DJs, stop trying to change the Orange Them if you do not have anything to add to it.

    At least Energy52/Cafe Del Mar remixes are usually a really NEW version of it.

    This is just the same without the magic (and yeah, The Orange Them is one of the finest song ever, so try hard or not). A good DJ would have played it without changing a bit rather than that, imho.

  • agreed this is rubbish.When this tune came out people used to dance facing each other and the DJ was stuffed in the corner. This is just brain dead consumerism like rave never happened

  • Amen! Could agree more.

  • @groupe55

    i hate techno house minimal and similar

    but the only masterpiece i love is the music for the funeral of queen mary...and even if he tried out to ruin it....he can't because this song is ageless...and it will live forever...<3

  • he changed the first 2 seconds of the music, so now the music belongs to him. This version (bahh soooooooo different than mau5's one...NOT.)

    Sorry people, that's the DJ way of stealing music without being against law. Believe it, im in law school 2nd year =D

  • AVB is just playing deadmau5's mix, he never claimed it as his own... In no way did he steal any song from anyone

  • I think it's great how everyone is stepping up to say where this track originally comes from. You are all right (almost, lol) This track was originally created by Henry Purcell for the funeral of Queen Mary as Tijnk said. Deadmau5 was the first person to step up and give credit where credit is due. The Mau5 has never claimed it as his own creation it is simply another brilliant remix by him. So brilliant other world famour deejays use his mixes in their sets. I love it and I respect it.

  • Agree 100%. This track was thoroughly rinsed back in my rave days '95 '96ish. The fact that prominent dj's have chosen to bring it back using Deadmau5's mix is a testament to not only his skills, but a great show of respect. This guy has gotten larger in 2 years than most dj's have gotten in an entire career. This is not an accident...

  • couldnt agree more ! talent will always win over hype ,and a producer looking to make a quick buck over the music wont last long.

  • @Minniemau5

    totally agree

    Cygnus X, Tiesto, Deadmau5 they all made covers of that purcell song

    Clockwork by Deadmau5 is NOT a remix: he does not use samples from Orange Theme nor from the original Henry Purcell song

    the name of this track is Clockwork by deadmau5 and unlike jibkid is saying Deadmau5 DID create this track so its his right to choose his own name

    Ignorance is bliss, jibkid ... ignorance is bliss

  • deadmouse the trance killer

  • @Minniemau5 Henry Purcell???

    The melody is straight out from "Death of Ase" by Edvard Grieg

  • @Minniemau5 You sure about Henry Purcell? I thought the melody sound more like "Death of Ase" by Edvard Grieg

  • aha so armin van buuren is secretly deadmau5

  • ah fuck im pissed off fuck armin van buren wer da fuckes deadmu5

  • armin van buuren is very succesful and talented dj...

  • what a boring crowd

  • No-one ever hear of clockwork orange? Feks sake people follow the theme lol ;-)

  • yea it shuld of been named that but wtv deadmau5 did make the song 1000xttimes better all the song has is the tune but it shuld been a remix cause deadmau5 did not produce the tune its from Cygnus X still unno why he renamed it and all bop who knows man

  • el tema...lo mejor

    deadmau5...lo mejor

    y la fiesta...lo mejor

    COLOMBIA5

  • Cosmic Gate did a great grooving remix to this "Orange Theme" aka "Clockwork" ^_^

  • Ok listen when I said this was Clockwork I meant that that was the title of the track. Yes it is a remix/interpretation of the Orange Theme, I was just saying the actual track title

  • The name of this track is "Orange Theme", no matter which version it is. Just because its a remix doesnt give Deadmau5 the right to change the name. That is why i named it "Orange Theme (Deadmau5 Remix)"

  • @jibkid

    You're wrong. it is not a remix of the Orange Theme.

  • @jibkid Deadmau5 Has The Right Of This!

  • this is definitely DEADMAU5 - CLOCKWORK

  • DEADMAU5 DID NOT CREATE THIS TRACK!

    ignorance is bliss

  • @RampantLion11 you are obviously a retard that just started listening to this type of music, one of the deadmau5 cocksuckers that dont know anything about this music

  • Good job after a good original omop .

  • Have a listen to my remix & see what you think? Hope you like?

  • lol..otally agree...i have the cygnus x- orange theme on record..i bought it as soon as i heard it!!...what a fuking tune dude!!...i stil use it in my sets..deadmau5's rework is alright...no where near the original or other remixes ive heard..

  • Cant we all just get along

  • that time of the month again?

  • umm this is CLockwork

  • sorry dude..it isnt...is cygnus x's - ornage thedeadmau5 just remixed it..call it what he wants..its not his song or did he make the melody..i love deadmau5 and all but if hes taking credit for this song..the dude should get sued by cygnus x and its record label...it isnt right..pay respect to the producers of this song deadmau5!!...

  • Agreed - in no way should deadmau5 be allowed to take credit to cygnus x's great works.

  • too bad Cycnus X didnt create the orange theme, but Henry Purcell did for the Funeral of Queen Mary.

    So i guess Deadmau5 can name his track how he wants?
