  • Porter Robinson Fan Created 'Worlds' Tour Movie From YouTube Footage [WATCH]

    American producer and DJ Porter Robinson released his debut artist album 'Worlds' last year to resounding fan and critical approval.

He then took the album on tour with custom visuals and a live set-up that allowed the producer to play the songs on the fly with added wrinkles. The tour had a ton of hype and nearly every date was sold out. As you might expect with a tour like this in the social media and smartphone age, there were plenty of videos posted onto the Web -- guilty as charged -- of people's experiences at the show. One enterprising fan managed to create a whole hour and 30 minute movie, via 'YourEDM,' of fan-taken YouTube clips with nearly flawless sound matching perfectly behind it.

  • Porter Robinson Delivers Inspiring EMC 2014 Keynote Address [WATCH]

    Porter Robinson has had one of the biggest years of any artists in dance music. He completely transformed his image, his sound and, as a result, his career. The transition had started with his single "Language" and later the collaboration alongside Mat Zo "Easy," but it was made complete with the writing and release of his debut artist album "Worlds." "Worlds" ditched his heavy, glitchy electro sound that he professed, focusing more on technical prowess more than songwriting and creating "beautiful music" at 90 beats per minute that really satisfied the creative spirit of Porter Robinson. During his time at Stereosonic, he stopped at the Electronic Music Conference to deliver the keynote address with fellow DJ and friend Nick Thayer about the process of making the album, give some advice for upcoming producers and say what inspires him, via "In the Mix."Porter Robinson sits down with Nick Thayer, who prompts the 22-year-old producer/DJ to discuss how he got to where he is in his career and give advice on how to get the attention of someone like him. His advice is a bit different from how others might view the music industry or "the game," as it is referred to in the discussion. He admits that his experience was largely shielded from many of the struggles and typical experiences that many artists go through, but in the digital age, where almost everything happens online, he urges artists to focus on being true to one's self and create something that is unique.
