Relentless Beat of the Week: Illenium – The Sound of Walking Away

Nick Miller, better known to the world as charting DJ/Producer Illenium, recently took our breath away at Phoenix Lights and he’s just released a track that takes us right back. He’s been steadily building a devoted fan base since his 2013 debut. Illenium’s rise to prominence has been quick and many of his songs have acquired millions of streams. His latest track will likely be a hit of the same magnitude.

Fresh off the release of his massive collaboration ‘Feel Good’ with fellow melodic dance producer Gryffin and Grammy Award-winning vocalist Daya, Illenium has returned with our Relentless Beat of the Week, “Sound Of Walking Away”, out now on Seeking Blue/Kasaya.

“Sound of Walking Away” is a collaboration with Estonian vocalist Kerli who you may know from her work with Seven Lions, Benny Benassi, and SNBRN. Her voice is one of the best in dance music and a welcomed feature on any song. The track builds on a steadily climbing acoustic guitar, ultimately breaking with a melodic bass drop that Illenium has become known for. This track is with powerful emotive chords and soaring vocals, and “Sound Of Walking Away” will be an immediate favorite of Future Bass and Progressive Dance fans alike.

Fans can catch Illenium live all across the United States, starting in May with fellow Bass producer, Said The Sky.
