Summary edit

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	This is a short sample of "Ghost Voices", a song by Porter Robinson for the Virtual Self EP.
Author or copyright owner	Porter Robinson
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Official streaming services
Date of publication	October 25, 2017
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Virtual Self (EP)
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	The EP where the song is from, Virtual Self, is represented by two characters created by Robinson, Pathselector and technic-Angel, which have very different styles; Pathselector with mid-tempo, trance songs and technic-Angel with hardcore, fast songs. It is important to have a small sample "by Pathselector", "Ghost Voices", and another "by technic-Angel", "Eon Break", to show the different sounds of the EP. Both songs will be included in the Composition and songs section of the EP article, which discusses the different influences and sounds of the work, including commentary about the songs.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	The audio is copyrighted and not released under a free license, so creation of a free sample is not possible.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	This file will be used in two articles, only: Virtual Self (EP) and Ghost Voices.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	This file is less than 10% of the full song and was reduced to Ogg, Quality 0, before upload. The use of a low-resolution, short sample of the audio will not impact the commercial viability of the audio.
