Illenium is the recording alias of Nicholas Miller, a Bay Area electronic producer and DJ who brings unabashed sentimentality and melodicism to festival-ready dubstep and trap. After debuting with several singles in 2014, he began releasing guest-heavy full-lengths starting with 2016's Ashes and continuing with his first appearance on the Billboard 200, 2017's Awake, home to the gold-certified "Feel Good" with Gryffin and Daya. In 2019, Illenium's third set, Ascend, hit number one on the U.S. Dance chart, boosted by his biggest hit to date, the chart-topping, platinum-certified Chainsmokers collaboration "Takeaway" with Lennon Stella. He scored his second consecutive number one in 2021 with fourth LP Fallen Embers. His self-titled fifth album appeared in 2023.
Originally from Chicago, Miller began producing electronic music in 2008 and moved to Denver in 2013, where he performed and released music as Illenium. His self-titled debut EP appeared on Los Angeles-based Prep School Recordings that year, followed by Risen in early 2014. The releases were well-received within the EDM community, and Miller issued additional singles as well as remixing songs by ODESZA, Dawn Golden, Oh Wonder, and others.
