Porter Robinson & Madeon – Shelter [popcultur]
They did it! They finally did it! The dream team, the dynamic duo of Porter Robinson and Madeon has happened and with it we have “Shelter” . Fans have been waiting for these two to collab forever! This song is soothing, hopeful, and embodies Madeon and Porter so well. The song starts beautifully, with these soft vocal cuts melodically flying around, electrifying synths making sparks fly, and strong piano and bass supporting the rest of the music. The vocals come in, with some flare to them. The piano really sets the mood of the song, and the melodies on top create the mood. The beat is so catchy in the verse. The drop brings the lovely vocal cuts back into the song, with the strong bass running under all of the synths. You have the rhythm playing, brighter chords above that, melodic notes in the background. So much is going on and it all belongs, it all adds to the song and the environment. After the second verse, there is a buildup that changes up the feel of the vocal cuts and ads a phase effect creating and airy feel, and we go right back into the drop, this time the chorus plays and we are left with fading synths to start to comprehend what we just listened to. I have been waiting for Porter and Madeon to make something like this and I’m definitely not disappointed. I can hear “Worlds” and “Adventure” in this. I can feel the beauty of Porter and the groove of Madeon in this. Check out this song I’m sure you will love it!
