In The Spotlight

ili – “Tongue Tied”

Born in Glasgow as Emily Middlemas, this Scottish singer and songwriter has been performing since the age of 9. At 13 she started writing her own songs. She auditioned for The X-Factor in 2014, reaching judge’s houses. Two years later she tried again, this time reaching 4th place. Inspired by Fleetwood Mac, Queen and Electric Light Orchestra, she debuted her new name on her single “A Little Bit” in 2019.

Describing the early stages of falling in love, when the butterflies are flying, but you’re not yet ready to proclaim your feelings out loud, her sparkling new single is an upbeat earworm. With an interesting fusion of retro 80s pop with modern elements, it’s the neon disco beat, luminous synths and an infectious bass line that serves as a vehicle for her refreshing, storytelling vocals to shine.

Sam Cullen – “Forever”

Born and raised in Invercargill and now Auckland-based, this multi-faceted New Zealand singer, songwriter and musician started performing in high school. Playing guitar and keys, he studied jazz at the Victoria University School Of Music in Wellington and has performed at festivals like Rhythm & Vines. Inspired by Fleetwood Mac, Arctic Monkeys and The 1975, he released his debut “Small Town” in 2017.

Putting to music the pure excitement that is felt when someone realizes that they’ve fallen in love, while feeling uneasy to admit it, his new single is filled with infectious sonic nostalgia. Blending pop and rock and giving it some neon 80s flair, it’s the driving drums, stirring bass and scintillating synths that make this an organic jam. And with his retro-touched vocals, this tune will last forever.
