Worlds is the debut studio album by American electronic music producer Porter Robinson, released on August 12, 2014, by Astralwerks. Initially known for his heavier bass-centric production, Robinson became increasingly dissatisfied with the electronic dance music (EDM) genre, believing it limited his artistic expression. Following the release of his 2012 single "Language", Robinson decided to prioritize aesthetic and emotional qualities in his work, taking inspiration from media that evoked nostalgia for his childhood and integrating elements taken from anime, films, and sounds from 1990s video games. The album was promoted with four singles and later a tour in North America and Europe. Worlds was well-received by most critics, who praised it as innovative and forecasted a promising career for Robinson, though others felt the record lacked coherence or was unexciting. The album has been retrospectively noted for its impact on the EDM scene.

This is a topic comprising the Porter Robinson album Worlds and its four singles. After months of work, it now meets all good topic criteria. This is mainly the result of a collaboration between me and TechnoSquirrel69. Worlds was promoted to FA in a co-nomination between us (also, Techno wrote this lead intro, which will also be used for the TFA blurb). "Sea of Voices" was mainly written by Techno, while "Sad Machine" and "Lionhearted" were mainly written by me. "Flicker" was mainly written by EditorE back in 2016, but we made edits to ensure that it retained its GA quality. I want to thank Techno for this collaboration, all FAC and GAN reviewers, and everyone else who contributed to the topic. --Skyshiftertalk 11:41, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
