@illenium , born Nick Miller, is a Denver-based producer and one of the most successful crossover electronic artists today – garnering over five BILLION streams. His meteoric rise to fame kicked off in 2017 with his album “Awake,” which topped the iTunes charts. Just a few years later, ILLENIUM is recognized as one of Billboard’s Top Dance/Electronic Artists of the era.
Dog dad and self-proclaimed “Sadboi”, ILLENIUM says that when he started making music, he didn’t always intend on it being “emo”.
“The biggest thing for me is that people can relate to the album and connect to it on an emotional level. I think some of the singles that have been released have already accomplished that. ‘Take You Down’ helped share my story and struggles with drug abuse, and after that song I saw so many people sharing their own personal stories.”
His expansive sound, which mixes elements of celestial electronic, mellow alternative, rock-fuel dubstep, emotional indie and pop-tinged bass music is prevalent in his latest single “Sideways”.
