Recruited by Kill Paris’ Sexy Electric Label for an official remix of single “Operate,” Illenium succeeds in creating another outstanding work of art. “Operate” acts as the perfect canvas for Illenium to work his magic and transform the track into the kind of sweeping, emotional epic that he shapes so expertly. Where the original is funky and smooth, Illenium’s new interpretation carries the listener along an impassioned sonic journey that builds into an euphoric masterpiece. Debuted this past weekend during his set at Electric Forest to an exuberant crowd, “Operate (Illenium Remix)” looks to be one of his biggest remixes to date.
