Out now on Anjunabeats: ilan Bluestone & EL Waves ‘Africana’ (Club Mix).
Ignite is ilan’s most eclectic project yet: 15 tracks spanning 80s synthwave, cinematic ballads, melodic progressive house and new-age electronica, all grounded by the uplifting trance that defines his live sets. Since release, the album has seen over 3M streams worldwide.
“There are darker moments on there, but ultimately ‘Ignite’ is about the emotions and experiences that spark us into life. Writing these records felt like a weight coming off my shoulders and I’m hoping they inspire others to tackle and overcome their challenges in life”.
Bluestone’s love for string orchestration shines through the album, including the opening track ‘40’ with composer Jasper Blunk. The title track and first single, ‘Ignite’, is an electrifying blend of hypnotic melodies, soaring vocals, and explosive drops. It partners ilan with two artists who have been heavily involved in his story so far: Maor Levi and Giuseppe De Luca, marking the first time the three have collaborated on a record. Leeds-based writer and singer Giuseppe features more across the album, as well as on records with longtime contributors EL Waves, Gid Sedgwick and Ellen Smith. The album also introduces several new voices to ilan’s story.
‘Africana’ sees ilan Bluestone reunite with vocalist EL Waves, who first collaborated on ‘Will We Remain?’ alongside Maor Levi in 2018. EL waves also featured on three tracks from Bluestone’s 2019 EP, ‘We Are The Universe’ and made her first appearance on ‘Ignite’ with ‘Mewo Fie’.
The second club-oriented mix to emerge from ‘Ignite’, the record sees ilan place his signature club sound, flipping the delicate original into his more familiar, anthemic, club weapon primed for his appearances at Creamfields and EDC Las Vegas later this year.
ilan Bluestone’s ‘Ignite’ is available to order on vinyl via the Anjuna Music Store.
Release Date: 27th March 2026
