Porter Robinson & Ninajirachi Unveil a Virus-Inspired Debut Collab ‘WannaCry’
Porter Robinson and Ninajirachi discuss their debut collaboration 'WannaCry', released July 28 on I Love Cats/NLV Records. Robinson DM’d Nina after admiring her work; they met in Chapel Hill and Chicago, and the writing and production came together quickly, with Ninajirachi refining the bass and overall production. The track is a punchy, synth-driven, hyperpop-leaning electronic song built for the dance floor and live shows, and uses the WannaCry ransomware as an emotional metaphor. Both artists express mutual admiration and a sense of being understood through the collaboration, describing it as a potential future classic.
