Wolfgang Gartner
Illmerica

Ministry of Sound

WE SAY

Illmerica, from Grammy-nominated US electro/house producer and DJ Wolfgang Gartner, has already received big support from Zane Lowe, Pete Tong, Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw, is currently Greg James’ Record of the Week and has just been added to the Radio 1 C-list. Spins have also come from Capital and Kiss. Illmerica debuted in the Cool Cuts chart at No.2, just one indicator of the track's summer smash potential. Gartner has been tipped by everyone from Deadmau5 to Jimmy Iovine and Illmerica heralds the arrival of a major new dance talent. This single lands before some big collaborations promised on his forthcoming album, including his next release Forever with Will.i.am.
