Back in the year 2009, Deadmau5 took Calvin Harris' “I'm Not Alone,” stripped it down and gave it a nice little rework. Now 5 years later, it appears that Trey Songz has taken Deadmau5's chord progression and worked it into his new track “Touchin, Lovin.”
Without a doubt Deadmau5 took to Twitter to vent his frustrations with even Calvin Harris chiming in.

Do you think Trey Songz ripped off Deadmau5's “I'm Not Alone” remix?
