I’d like to see any other producer out there make a weirder comparison to the creative process of making a new album than what Porter Robinson explained to us in a recent feature length interview!
In anticipation for his forthcoming album ‘Worlds’ that is set to explode in Australia come Friday the 8th of August following the release of his three distinctive singles “Sea of Voices”, “Lionhearted” and “Sad Machine”, we queried Porter;
With the lead up to your album. What does a day in the life of Porter Robinson look like right now?
The response was something we didn’t expect…
‘This is kind of like how sausage is made but it’s really been more intensive work than I’ve ever seen before. Once an album is done, it’s not really done, like you still have to go through and make instrumental versions of every song on the album, I’m making a few radio edits and creating the live show as well.
I made it really hard on myself, because in the way that I organise my projects It’s kind of like trying to get the egg out of a baked cake, in that I’m trying to get elements out of the songs that I’ve made. I’ve really fucked myself in terms of organisation. So yeah, I’m just working on live show stuff, I’ve been practising singing, rehearsing songs, and been working on sample triggering stuff and trying to get my live drops up a little bit before I launch into the tour.’
Either Porter is a constantly hungry dude (420) or food and music just really do go together perfectly!
