Never one to avoid controversy, Deadmau5 has been preparing for his stand-in Ultra set (following Avicii’s sudden illness) by taking swipes at his fellow artists – particularly the fresh-faced EDM star Martin Garrix.

lemme know if garrix plays animals… and the set contains at LEAST 1 countdown from 10. thanks. — deadmau5 (@deadmau5) March 29, 2014

Obviously having a good time hating on Garrix’s No.1 hit single, Zimmerman hatched a plan to troll Garrix live on stage…

throwing some random bullshit together for the set… holy shit I’m such a dick, this is gunna be awesome. — deadmau5 (@deadmau5) March 29, 2014

The result was a reworked version of ‘Animals’ that turned the drop into the tune of ‘Old McDonald Had a Farm’.
