The Orange County artist and producer Llusion has teamed with singer-songwriter Salem Ilese for their new song “Yoga” via Republic Records.
The track follows the success of a viral TikTok song. Ilese shares
“I came up with the concept for ‘Yoga’ during the first month of quarantine, after attempting the inevitable ‘morning yoga and meditation’ phase. Working with LLusion provided me more zen than any downward dog stretch could’ve.”
Llusion has garnered 50 million+ streams and nearly 100 million TikTok views. He gained traction on TikTok after his remix of No Idea by Don Toliver was featured in a video by Charli D’Amelio.
Check out Woman from up & coming Maddy Hartson. The Michigan based singer-songwriter mixes alt pop with midwestern grit, a unique combo that is.
“In the studio, I was able to tap into a more bold side of songwriting, one that simultaneously demands attention while still feeling evasive. I spent about an hour alone without anyone else in the room, left with a melody and a blank sheet of paper. I thought about things I’d wished to write about but never did. The feeling of feminine power, confidence, and bravery were all key emotions that played into the creation of this song. That’s when ‘Woman’ was born.” shares Maddy Hartson.
