Electronic Music's Next Huge Thing: Porter Robinson

If you felt like you were late to the Skrillex party last year, don't make the same mistake twice. We hope you learned your lesson and are already hip to Porter Robinson because he could be the next act to blow the roof off of electronic music. The 19-year-old’s accomplishments thus far rival many seasoned veterans’ and may we remind you he’s only 19?!?

Having just completed a tour supporting Tiesto in which Robinson performed for the largest DJ event in US history (approximately 26,000 were in attendance), his peers are already touting him as one of the nu-breed saviors of electronic music. Porter Robinson was featured on Billboard’s “Top 21 Under 21” list, and managed to crash Beatport’s servers when he released his Spitfire EP earlier this year. He’s already remixed the likes of Lady Gaga and Avicii with several more A-list offers rolling in. What’s that, you want to see Porter Robinson live? Well you’re in luck because he’s stopping by The Music Box Saturday December 3rd (get tickets here).




If you can, clear your schedule on the 3rd…you won’t be disappointed.
