British producer, Tourist has teamed up with Years & Years frontman, Olly Alexander for a brand new song, 'Illuminate'.
Premiered on Annie Mac's Radio 1 show on Friday, the bubbly, optimistic track makes for an impressive showcase for the two much-hyped artists. Known for his moody, minimal late-night pieces, this marks a refreshing and bouncy new direction for the seasoned producer. Alexander's vocals create an up-beat, effervescent vibe that propels the track into a gleaming ode to the lost conquests of summer.
Check out the track below.
2014 has already been massive for Years & Years, with a wealth of massive singles, such as the Ben Whishaw containing video for 'Real', under their belt already and a successful festival season behind them.
