ILLENIUM and Said The Sky have spent years building parallel empires in the electronic music scene, each known for translating both love and heartbreak into their own distinct languages.Their new single, ‘When The Light Breaks,’ fuses those two sounds into an ambitious collaboration with three disparate drops, all threaded through one continuous emotional arc.

Meanwhile, Sommer sings about the particular loneliness of performing wellness in public, the small daily contract of saying “I’m fine” while privately keeping your head above water.That image, of staying afloat rather than actually swimming, is emblematic of the sort of evocative songwriting that has led the NY-based singer-songwriter to acclaim in the dance music space.
