In December 2007 marcus schossow, DJ Eco and Maor Levi created a project named Deadrat6 as a joke on Deadmau5, claiming his tracks sound alike. A similar faux project was also created under the name of Sinterklaa5. As a counter-move, Deadmau5 created a track under the artist name Marcus Fatsow. In the 330th episode of A State of Trance, Armin van Buuren played the song Deadrat6 - Very Exactly, which is a track made by marcus schossow and Maor Levi to joke on Deadmau5's name. At the beginning of the program Armin said "New tunes coming in the next 2 hours by Deadmau5, and I think he's got a little brother because we got a tune by Deadrat6 too." Schossow also wrote "haha, Armin played my Deadrat6 joke" on his MSN Messenger.
The rivalry between Deadmau5 and Schossow escalated at an event in April 2008 in Oslo, where, according to marcus schossow, Deadmau5 refused to play at a club if marcus schossow was going to play afterwards. This lead to marcus schossow being refused entry and made the night a Deadmau5 solo-event.
