The acclaimed composer collaborated with ILK on debut album “Y U” and new single "Somer".
Comprising of Bob Tollast, Olly Puglisi and Tom Fisher, ILK are making sure future sound recordings and infectious pop coexist. Their latest offering “Somer” is a weird, lo-fi sonic adventure filled with polyrhythmic layers, surreal lyricisms and hypnotic tones. Essentially, this ode to space and time is a glorious introduction to a sci-fi world of epic proportions.
