"YOU'RE JUST NOSTALGIC" -
what do we wander from
and only notice it now? #nurture

@porterrobinson
aight small storytime -- many of you know that SO SO much of nurture is inspired by one of my absolute musical heroes @TakagiMasakatsu - he's someone whose music actually deeply changed my view of the world #nurture
32
@porterrobinson
i listened to SO SO much vocaloid music from 2015 - 2017 -- it really felt like the only thing that could make me feel something during that time period. something comforting really has that vibe #nurture

@porterrobinson
"GET A JOB" !!!!!!!!! lmfao out of pocket lyric. #nurture

i was also listening to SO MUCH galileo galilei around the time of writing "trying to feel alive". i really wanted to write something that made me feel the way their music does #nurture

@porterrobinson
the guitar in blossom song is actually me playing a guitar sound on the keys #nurture
37
@porterrobinson
DO-RE-MI-FA-SO-LA-TI-DO i have fallen and busted my shit up while rollerblading twice while listening to this song! wow #nurture

@porterrobinson
LOOK AT THE SKY -- i sat on that opening hook since like 2016 and but i only really made progress on the songwriting in 2018 when rika and i took a trip to japan and i worked out of a studio there for a few weeks. that inspired me so much #nurture

@porterrobinson

@porterrobinson
"trying to feel alive" was the last song written for nurture. it was very very difficult to end the album in a way that felt truthful and helpful, like... #nurture
41
@porterrobinson
i really really cherish the lyrics in the second verse of mother --
"and ive known the feeling you had when you're helped/held
the comfort of being unwell
so something can cradle you" #nurture

@porterrobinson
ok like 5 minutes until we all press play #nurture ARE YALL READY

@porterrobinson

I KNOW WHAT YOU WANT FROM ME, FROM ME #nurture

@porterrobinson
the sort of "broken vocal" sound effect at the end of language was legitimately my microphone having some weird issue, i tried to record as much on it as possible because i knew i would never be able to remake that sound #nurture
46
@porterrobinson
lifelike — i wanted to start off the album with the simplest and most fundamental possible sounds, which is that “sample pop” and then the sound of the piano #nurture
47
@porterrobinson
interesting fact about this song -- all of the drums in Mother are 100% synthesized #nurture
48
@porterrobinson
something comforting to me is "what if KZ produced landslide by fleetwood mac" #nurture

@porterrobinson
BUT I WONT SPEND TIME RESENTING THE WAY THINGS ARE #nurture

@porterrobinson
the countermelody synth in look at the sky that sounds like a female vocal is called "Fire emblem lead' in the project for some god damn reason #nurture
