about this album
"Musician" is a song by American record producer Porter Robinson. It is the fifth single from Robinson's second album Nurture, released on March 3, 2021. In 2019, Robinson worked on an unreleased collaboration with British band Kero Kero Bonito. The samples from the demo would later be used in "Musician". Robinson stated in a tweet that he had a rule for Nurture, which was "no supersaws no 808 subs no classic breakbeats", but he decided to "have fun" with "Musician". In a press release, Robinson stated that "Musician" was one of the very last songs written for Nurture; "The song is meant to feel like a celebration, like I'm reveling in the joy of newfound inspiration. If the rest of Nurture is about me trying to find hope for the future, "Musician" is like a celebration of that hope materializing. It was one of the last songs that I wrote for the album, and it's honestly a celebration of the album itself. That's where the title comes from. It's like, 'Alright, I've found my footing, and I know I can really do this now.' And I just tried to throw all of my rules away and have as much fun as possible. Ironically enough, this is the least sad song on the album, but this is the song that makes me cry. It's the fun one. I just sound so happy on that song." The music video for "Musician" was released on YouTube on March 18, 2021. It was directed by Waboku and Mah and animated by Dokai Asuka, rui, Ono Hokuto, Oyama Aiko, Sakai Hiroshi, Nishimura Fukutaro and Ryoko K. (Shatter). It
