Leveraging his own experiences into his music, Robinson pleads for his audience to enjoy life and stop worrying. Nurture is a record about patience and progression. Luckily, the struggle inevitably ended, or subsided, and Nurture was born, but the frustrating years Robinson “wasted” are still all present on this record, in one form or another. If I stop time right there, everything seems perfect… But outside of a couple of 2015/2016 singles, Robinson halted music production entirely, citing self-doubt and writer’s block as the reasoning behind the extended hiatus-one that almost ended his career. And naturally, it skyrocketed to the top spot of the dance/electronic Billboard charts, with critical praise following along. Still raw and underdeveloped, three years passed before he found his identity and his debut full-length album, Worlds (2014), was released. Surfacing amongst other EDM Gods like Skrillex, he was labeled as a borderline-prodigy with his initial EP, Spitfire (2011). Porter Robinson’s career has been one full of success but overwhelmingly so.
