Music Weekly Featuring Illenium

Music Weekly Featuring Illenium

By Tristan Chenoweth

This week I am featuring Illenium. Artist Nicholas Miller has been remixing and producing his own tracks since 2014.

First Track: Afterlife

This track starts off with a slow simple melodic music line and vocal line. With just enough space between the multiple layers of the song gives it the signature sound that Illenium is known for.

Second Track: Chosen You

Starting with a heavy electronic drop intro, this song leads into a trappy chorus with a minimal vocal which gives it that house feel.

Third Track: Painted White

This track is a collaboration between both Illenium and Said the Sky. With a simple percussion intro, this song leads into a lead vocal chorus accompanied by a simplistic music line.

Fourth Track: I’ll Be Your Reason

This track starts off with a very simple intro with a vocal and a simple percussion line. It then leads into the main chorus but follows the minimalist sound to keep the song simple.

Fifth Track: Fortress

This track starts with a beautiful vocal line and uses the concept of silence to add space between the different layers of the song and really highlighting the vocal line.
