"Snowcone" is a song by the Canadian electronic music producer deadmau5, originally uploaded on SoundCloud before being released on May 27, 2016 as a standalone digital download single. It was later revealed to be the first single from his upcoming studio album, W:/2016ALBUM/.[3]

Background

In May 2016, Zimmerman's official SoundCloud account was hacked. After attempting to regain control of the account and receiving extremely poor customer support,[4] the account and all of its tracks were removed from the service. Shortly afterwards, "Snowcone" was released.
