3. Worlds (Remixed) (2015)
“Porter Robinson live has changed my life. I saw him twice last year once at ultra music festival and once at backwoods festival and he doesn’t disappoint. I’ve turned so many people on to his music and they are just as hooked! this remix album is amazing and I’m listening to it everyday just like I listened to worlds everyday when it came out.”
2. Spitfire (2011)
“This CD is awesome! Every track is as great as the next! So if you have only heard one song from Porter Robinson, you won’t be disappointed with the rest of the album. There are a lot of aggressive growly bass sounds as well as some very nice peaceful parts in the album. The beats range from slower dubstep style beats to Drum n bass style beats, and to up-tempo EDM style beats. “
1. Worlds (2014)
“While the music is lacking the maturity of some of his more experienced fellows like Andrew Bayer, it is rich, powerful, smart, unique, catchy, explorative, energetic, and, in this album’s case, very direct in targeting a particular feel. I’d say the three tracks that most define this album’s target direction or “message” are Sad Machine, Flicker, and Lionhearted, while meanwhile the “flagship” track is probably Divinity. What is this direction / feel / “message”? It feels a single aesthetic painting, one that I can only describe as post-apocalyptic digitalization of physical reality. I’m sure that doesn’t make any sense, so I’d suggest just going on YouTube and searching for “Porter Robinson Flicker” (without quotes) and, ignoring the strange Japanese (??) speech intro, see if you can get through to the end of the video. You should be impressed. Very impressed.”
