USA Denver-based artist Nick Miller—known professionally as ILLENIUM—shares a new single entitled ‘Pray’ featuring Kameron Alexander. Get it HERE via Virgin EMI.
Hastening the stratospheric momentum surrounding him, the song marks his second original record of 2019 and arrives hot on the heels of the buzzing single ‘Crashing’ [feat. Bahari], which gathered 16 million-plus total streams and counting thus far.
‘Pray’ highlights ILLENIUM’S eloquent songcraft and boundary-breaking ambition. He architects yet another immersive soundscape punctuated by airy guitars, brass transmissions, orchestral beats, and a cathedral-size drop. This musical bedrock underscores an emotionally charged and pensive vocal performance by Alexander whose robust delivery captivates on the confessional chorus, “So, just pray for me.” It also highlights impressive interplay between ILLENIUM and Alexander—who brings a wide swath of experience working with everyone from Frank Ocean to Jess Glynne to the table.
Be on the lookout for an equally entrancing visual very soon.
Excitement continues to amplify. He just dropped a remix package for ‘Crashing’ featuring contributions by the likes of DROELOE, KLOUD, and Rock Mafia as well as Stripped version of the track. Following the arrival, EDM.com wrote, “Miller’s trajectory in the EDM orbit has been nothing short of a spectacle.” Listen to the remixes HERE.
Meanwhile, the streaming numbers have been exploding online. His Spotify monthly listeners reached 4.7 million, nearing the 5 million mark. Meanwhile, followers on the platform surpass half-a-million at 509K.
‘Pray’ heralds the release of more music in 2019 as ILLENIUM continues to chart new territory creatively.
ILLENIUM creates immersive emotional experiences, displaying an adeptness for crafting aural arrangements that vary in style, beauty, complexity and depth. With two full-length albums to his credit and sundry singles and remixes, he has surpassed the one billion stream mark across his discography.
His debut album, Ashes, was released to critical acclaim in early 2016. Awake followed in 2017 and hit #1 on in the iTunes Electronic Dance Charts in 12 countries. Named one of the “10 Best Dance/Electronic Albums of 2017” by Billboard, it included such singles as ‘Feel Good’ (with Gryffin featuring Daya) and “Crawl Outta Love.” Praising the album as “a gorgeous collection of future bass, piercing vocals, and barefaced lyrics,” Dancing Astronaut said, “While it might seem premature to call an album a ‘masterpiece,’ no other title would fit Awake so well.” Billboard observed, “The phoenix is ILLENIUM 's mascot, and Awake is the emergent moment of that story.”
