ilan Bluestone reveals his brand new track “Paid For Love” featuring for the first time Gid Sedgwick
The new track ‘Paid For Love’ is classic Bluestone. Vibrant and anthemic, Ilan is joined once again by singer and songwriter Gid Sedgwick, who worked with Ilan and Maor Levi on 2019’s ‘Can You’. ‘Paid For Love’ was handpicked by Above & Beyond for their Group Therapy 400 live stream in September.
Ilan says about the collaboration, “ ‘Paid For Love’ is the first track I’ve written where I’ve had a hand in writing the lyrics. The song is about a personal experience I had in a relationship, and I feel like these lyrics speak to people who may have gone through similar experiences. I’ve felt such a strong connection with fans at my shows when they’ve been singing the words back to me. I wanted a vocal in the style of Depeche Mode, and Gid delivered!“
The rising star Gid Sedgwick adds, “Paid For Love was the first song Ilan and I worked on together, and actually my first attempt at trance (Tronce) altogether. I’ve not looked back since! Prior to working on the track, Ilan had a clear direction of where he wanted the sound to go and the rest happened very naturally. After only a few tweaks and changes, it wasn’t long until Paid For Love was complete and ready for the big stage!”
From his early works like ‘Cape Town’ and ‘Big Ben’, to his 2018 album ‘Scars’, to his recent EP release under new alias Elysian, Ilan always keeps one foot firmly ahead of the pack.
Earlier this year, ilan launched a new project called ‘Elysian’ with Maor Levi and Emma Hewitt featuring some new hits like ‘Water’ EP, ‘Moonchild’ and ‘Beyond The Comfort Zone‘
