30 Day Music Challenge Day 23

March 24, 2017 by Nick Pesavento

Yes!!!! I get to start this one as Theo hasn’t made it this far and it’s my day off! For my Day 23 challenge, ‘A song you think everyone should listen to’, I’ve decided to go with “Divinity” by Porter Robinson. The depth of this song continues to amaze me after all this time; I can hardly count the number of times I’ve heard it, and given it is one of his set staples, hearing this live a half-dozen times has also largely contributed to my reasons for picking this track.

The intro of the song is loud and a little in-your-face, but quickly recedes as Porter grabs both your heart and mind for an unforgettable journey. The soft lyrics permeating the background churn in your mind, sparking connections with thoughts and feelings, while the 8-bit style melodies gently weave themselves into your heart strings, making this song a part of you in moments. The song is both poetically melancholy and uplifting, almost in the same breath. Instead of explaining exactly how this is possible, I’d just like you to listen to the song and hear it for yourself.

Nick got all excited about beating me, but we ended up picking the same artists.  Well, kind of.  I chose Porter Robinson and Madeon because everyone has to have listened to Shelter at least once since it came out.  These two artists are on my top 10 and have been for the longest time.  The song has one of the highest play counts on my whole iTunes.

I push the track so hard because you cannot tell where one artist begins mixing and where one ends because of how well they work together. Their styles flow so smoothly together, it creates an instrumentally amazing song.  With the rhythm and melody being perfectly timed, the two add vocals that are chopped, computerized, and you cannot help but catch yourself singing along.

Make sure to check back every day at 4:30pm EST for the next 30 Days to follow our picks.  You can also click here to see all related posts.
