It has been half a decade since Porter Robinson graced us with ‘Worlds’ [Stream]
Summer has historically been a busy time for Porter Robinson. This summer brought Robinson’s first curator credits with the launch of his lauded Second Sky festival. In the summer of 2016, he and Madeon teamed up to give us the unforgettable “Shelter,” and now five summers ago on August 12, Robinson graced us with his groundbreaking debut studio album, Worlds.
The album, steeped in Japanese cultural inspirations, opened electronic music up to brilliantly new emotional complexities. In fact, it’s not a stretch to say that World‘s glitching sound design and artfully retro sonic collages informed the creative precedents that dominate electronic music today, now half a decade later. The LP, released via Astralwerks, nearly instantly cemented itself as a modern day classic, and rightfully propelled Porter Robinson into conversations about the all-time greats. Revisit Worlds below.
