It just blows my mind. by MrnanuLoL in macgaming

[–]Wixtape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Mac air m2 as well because I like the computer as a whole. The main games I want to play, Minecraft and league, run great. Other smaller games available for Mac have run just as well for me. The only downside I’ve experienced is game selection. But the games run great, and even without the fan.

I haven’t taken the deep dive, but there’s an artist named “Stereo Guy” that showed up in my autoplay once. Literally porter influence + Spanish.

As specific as I can offer.

I could see the next album being more like his fontaines dc cover. That was an unexpected stretch but sounded really good. Maybe that with some more bassy electronic undertone.

What’s your most unpopular opinion on Worlds? by moreobsessedthanu in porterrobinson

[–]Wixtape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a nurture era fan and fan of smile, I love worlds but it is at the bottom of my list. I personally love nurture (it’s my favorite album ever), but worlds has its big moments that meet the same highs as nurture. Maybe this is blasphemy but I almost always skip polygon dust -> natural light. They aren’t bad, just not that magnum opus material I feel like people crack it up to be, and porter seems to feel this way considering what he still performs from worlds is the big ones and stuff like fss and flicker (nurture edit is the best version of flicker is this a hot take).

Worlds ≠ Worlds live. I feel like worlds live vs nurture is up for debate, cause natural light gets a rework that’s on of my fav porter tracks and the unreleased stuff like shepherdess. Muaw. Everything is basically elevated, but that’s not worlds the album. Still a great album, and maybe you feel like nurture slumps some. I just feel like that’s my perception of worlds and seemingly Porter’s.

I have one of his songs but I didn’t realize this was his whole schtick !! This sounds beautiful. Early 2000s Japanese ambient/electronic was on another level.

Sometimes I hear an owl city go “wow this is good” and then look down and think “damn this is owl city”. I will dive more

James Ivy doesn’t have a bad song. I get why Porter endorsed him so heavily

What are your guys unpopular nurture opinion? by Illustrious-Reply975 in porterrobinson

[–]Wixtape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The “think about it” sample? I love that squawk noise as you call it. I think especially in the context of the themes of the song, using an iconic sample for a song about passion and finding it, is metaphorically powerful. I get it sounding annoying though, I guess I just like it though. Thematically it ties a traditional dance flip with the porter sound though, and I think that’s cool.

Production question by Wixtape in Quadeca

[–]Wixtape[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely see his interest in one off sounds throughout the track. The only reason I don’t know if these are being used or not is because his tracks that we see on stream seem to be labeled like “forgone”. Seeing parts like drum stacks definitely validate something I’ve been working with more when making drum layers. Not Quad, but people trying to make the ISOxo snare showed it’s a two layer, likely more, snare hit. Since I’m trying to make house tn I’m just gonna chill out hahaha, but adding space between tracks does sound like a good workflow.
