The pair has joined forces for a monstrous new collaboration, available Friday, May 16 through Republic Records.
ILLENIUM and HAYLA’s latest collaboration, “In My Arms,” is available today (Friday, May 16) through Republic Records. “In My Arms” is a soaring, emotionally-charged return to form for the GRAMMY-nominated DJ/producer and a defining moment for the powerhouse singer-songwriter.
Built around a pulsing electronic beat that gradually blossoms into a euphoric, full-bodied production, the track feels both intimate and anthemic, while still remaining raw and authentic. HAYLA’s vocals shine with intensity and warmth, adding depth and vulnerability to ILLENIUM’s layered synths and cinematic drops. The chemistry between them is undeniable with “In My Arms” as it pulls listeners in – it lifts you up and refuses to let go.
“Back to making electronic vibes babyyyy. So happy with how this track turned out- raw emotion from start to finish. Hayla [your] voice is magnetic and took this to another level. Hope u all lovvveee it
.” – ILLENIUM
The release also marks a significant milestone in ILLENIUM’s career as he launches a new chapter under Republic Records. With over 10 billion global streams, Nick Miller – a/k/a Nick Miller – has built a legacy on emotionally rich productions and unforgettable live experiences, including his massive TRILOGY shows that filled stadiums like SoFi and Allegiant. From his debut Ashes to the GRAMMY-nominated Fallen Embers, he’s become one of electronic music’s most sought-after artists, earning a Billboard Music Award and a coveted spot on Forbes’ 30 Under 30.
HAYLA continues to prove why she’s one of the most compelling voices in electronic music today. Following a breakout 2024 that saw her headline her first solo tour and release her debut album DUSK, she’s racked up accolades and collaborations with the industry’s best – deadmau5, Kaskade, Kygo, MEDUZA, and John Summit, just to name a few. From Coachella to Madison Square Garden, she’s made her mark on the world’s biggest stages, and now, with “In My Arms,” she delivers one of her most powerful performances to date.
“’In My Arms is all about that electricity you get when you’re with somebody that you feel at home with. The sparks you feel bubbling under your skin when you’re together, but also knowing that you will be that person’s safe space, home and confidant whenever they need. ‘If you’re tired of being alone, if you need a heart to hold, I take you where you wanna go, I know it’s in my arms.’ Working with ILLENIUM and co-writing “In My Arms” has been incredible. ILLENIUM’s immense production and sound elevates this song’s meaning to even higher heights! This is a track that literally holds the listener in its arms. Music can also be a home. I hope that when you hear this song you feel at home too.”- HAYLA
