about this album
"Everything Goes On" is a song by American electronic music producer and singer-songwriter Porter Robinson released in collaboration with the video game League of Legends on July 14, 2022. It is Robinson's first release since his second studio album Nurture in 2021. The song is tied to the Star Guardian 2022 event in League of Legends, a tribute to the magical girl genre of anime. The song's lyrics draw inspiration from the magical girl anime Madoka Magica. Robinson frequently redid the lyrics to "Everything Goes On" while working on it, something he attributed to his focus on lyrics which has grown over time. Initially drawing inspiration from an animated short released by Riot in 2019, Robinson eventually shifted towards writing about something closer to his own experiences. In addition to the electronic elements present in his previous work, "Everything Goes On" draws from elements of indie rock and was partially performed by Robinson on the guitar, which he described as a "different workflow" for himself. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Robinson's wife Rika introduced him to League of Legends. When League of Legends developer Riot Games released the animated series Arcane, Robinson realized he wanted to be involved in one of their projects. He then decided to approach Riot about contributing a song; they proposed he work on the Star Guardian 2022 theme, to be accompanied by an animation of about two-and-a-half minutes in length. "Everything Goes On" was released alongside
