W:/2016Album/ (stylized as W:/2016ALBUM/; pronounced "W drive 2016 album") is the eighth studio album by Canadian electronic music producer Deadmau5. The album was released on December 2, 2016, through Deadmau5 (Joel Zimmerman)'s independent record label Mau5trap. The album's title, which was suggested by fans on Twitch, refers to a computer directory on Zimmerman's network-attached storage server used to store the master tracks of the songs on the album. The album features several tracks Zimmerman uploaded to his SoundCloud account, prior to it being compromised. W:/2016Album/ is also his first studio album to be released exclusively by Mau5trap.
The album had two singles to promote the album, "Snowcone" and "Let Go", the latter featuring American musician Grabbitz.
