Porter Robinson (born July 15th, 1992) is an American electronic musician and DJ from Chapel Hill, North Carolina. He released his first studio record in August 2014.
Every now and then, you come across an artist who makes you feel like an underachiever, unambitious, or just plain lazy; given what he’s already achieved at the tender age of just twenty-two, you’d have to count Porter Robinson amongst that number. He kicked his career off at the age of just twelve, and his earlier work was heavily indebted to dance music that he was exposed to through his love of Japanese video games - Dance Dance Revolution being one particular example.
By 2012, he released a debut single, “Language”, that pretty much immediately garnered international attention; it was released outside of his native U.S. via the legendary Ministry of Sound, and was quickly picked up by Radio 1 in the UK, where it was added to their Essential Mix. His ever-growing stature in the dance world led to him being tapped for official remixes of songs by artists as internationally acclaimed as Deadmau5 and Avicii by 2013, and he rounded off a hugely successful summer the same year by playing some of the world’s biggest music festivals. August 2014 saw the release of his debut album, Worlds, which met with critical acclaim and cracked the top twenty in the U.S.
