Shelter

After a long-standing friendship and both following similar career paths, Porter Robinson and Madeon release a highly-anticipated collaboration only one day before Porter’s debut album Worlds turns two years old. A North American autumn tour named after the track was also announced the same day. In a Billboard article following the release of “Shelter”, Porter Robinson revealed that: I see enthusiasm and inspiration as the most important currency you can have when you’re making music. It’s this weird sensation of being drunk on your own confidence and excitement that leads to so many creative breakthroughs. That effect was really exaggerated when we were working together.
