ILLENIUM

ILLENIUM, born Nicholas D. Miller, is an American DJ, music producer, and songwriter who has become one of the most prominent figures in the melodic bass and future bass electronic music scene. Born in Chicago, Illinois, and raised in San Francisco, California, Miller struggled with drug addiction in his early adulthood before finding salvation through music production. His journey of recovery became a central theme in his artistry, with the phoenix symbol representing his personal transformation becoming an iconic part of his brand.

ILLENIUM’s career began to take shape when he started releasing remixes and original tracks on SoundCloud in the mid-2010s. His debut album “Ashes” (2016) established his signature sound — emotional, melodic electronic music that blends elements of dubstep, future bass, and indie. His sophomore album “Awake” (2017) expanded his audience significantly, and his third album “Ascend” (2019) debuted at number 14 on the Billboard 200 and featured collaborations with artists like Jon Bellion and the Grammy-winning single “Good Things Fall Apart” with Bastille.

The pinnacle of ILLENIUM’s live career came in 2021 when he sold out a trilogy of shows at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, performing all three of his albums live in front of over 100,000 fans across the three nights. This unprecedented achievement in electronic music demonstrated his massive drawing power and devoted fanbase. His fourth album “Fallen Embers” (2021) debuted at number three on the Billboard 200, and he won a Grammy Award for Best Remixed Recording in 2024.

ILLENIUM’s touring schedule is one of the most extensive in electronic music, with headlining festival sets at EDC Las Vegas, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, and numerous other major events. He has held Las Vegas residencies and commands significant fees for club and festival appearances. His openness about his recovery from addiction has also made him an important figure in addiction awareness, inspiring countless fans who relate to his personal story. With consistent album releases, massive live shows, and a deeply loyal fanbase, ILLENIUM has built an estimated net worth of $20 million.
