Exactly Sam... In fact the song Shelter and everything, it's so different.. Sad Machine.. I think Porter is something else.. Maybe from somewhere with a purpose..

This is the first song my daughter heard when she was born. I felt it was the best way to bring her into our universe. She is two now and the sweetest child ever. After showing her this song I got to see Virtual Self live at EDC on the bar in the middle at the very front. I’ve never been more thankful for a DJ in my life and love this side project.

@commanderfoxtrot

My interpretation of the song is that which connects to a project I'm working on, and this song has really inspired me. In my mind, the main character was in cryo-stasis and now that he's awake, his AI is reminding him of what he has to do now that he's woken up. And he's woken up to a world unlike that which he left it as. 3 forces battle for control: the last vestiges of society (and not just humans) who want to survive, the plague known as The Swarm which creates zombie-like hive creatures out of the infected who are still able to wield weapons and interact with their environment, and an ever-growing expanse of quartz-like crystals with the only goal of turning everything to a crystalline version of itself. As for the video, it represents an area where the main character emerged from, with a flower made of pure energy acting as a power source and a housing for the AI. The AI is trying to remind him of who he was, an angel to the people, and someone to be feared by his foes. And even though those days are long gone, he has to restore balance where it has ripped itself apart.

This feels as if you were floating up on water, looking up towards the sky during a sunrise or sunset, you feel as if the water wraps on the half-submerged part of your body in a comforting, yet restraining way. You can't move, but you don't feel stressed or worried, you feel as if it would only happen once and then it would never happen again. Yet know that this feeling will be gone by the time you realized it, you feel sad, but also happy. Like a dream.
