Worlds was a really really personal thing, Shelter was really this adventure even though it was challenging writing a single for Shelter.ĭB: I know that Shelter the video was a separate entity from Shelter the song at one point. So we really chose a subject matter that came from both of our lives. The reason we picked the subject matter, our family and this idea of kind of achieving legacy between generations, because it was really equally important to both of us. Hugo (Madeon) is a huge driving force behind the lyrics. Porter Robinson: Shelter is equally representative of both of us. What was it like to add a second mind to such an introspective process? We got a chance to sit down with the duo and discuss creating music from a place of legitimacy, playing live, and potential projects in the future.ĭailyBeat: Porter has noted in the past that ‘Shelter’ was a highly personalized vision, as was ‘Worlds’.
Porter Robinson and Madeon are in town for the Shelter Live Tourat Madison Square Garden this Thursday and Friday.
