it's 7:00 AM right now here in australia. i'm incredibly jet lagged, so i already slept. i just watched the sun rise and it was killer
i'm going to organize and post some thoughts that have mostly been sitting in my drafts for the last few years
years ago, i realized that i wanted to write an album that focused on beauty above all else.
the feeling of hugeness and gorgeousness and vastness and beauty is what i fucking live for. it is my favorite thing in the world
i kept trying to write songs that both satisfied me artistically and also could 'work' in a dj set.
nobody ever heard these songs because they sucked and made me miserable
again and again, i found that making a track 'danceable' just meant compromising and ignoring what the song really needed
i realized that the rift between the music that works for DJs and the music that i love had grown too huge to ignore.
i considered quitting 'porter robinson' and exclusively writing music under an alias.
