When I started making music, I feel like I was such a different version of myself. Can you talk about your personal growth as an artist and how it’s reflected in your music? Your upcoming debut album “SOAMI” is described as “self-reflective and adult” and features a variety of themes such as long-distance relationships, stepping out of one’s comfort zone, and self-confidence. I love how clothes can make you feel so empowered and the way you can kind of slip into another character. Over the last few years, my love for fashion has grown so much, and one of the best things about creating music videos for me is the styling part. How important is fashion to you as an artist, and how does it influence your creative process? In the video, we see you wearing different outfits in each elevator scene. “Collaborating with other producers or artists in general can be very inspiring…” The fact that I’m just by myself in the elevator, living life and having this carefree energy seemed very fitting. The song “Suitable” is about not needing anyone, self-love, and not settling for less than you deserve. Since music videos are really important to me, and I don’t like to do half-assed things, my team and I decided to shoot a rather “simple” video, kind of like a visualizer, that still has a special and unique twist and lives from the performance. Therefore, we didn’t have a lot of time to work out a concept and shoot the music video. (laughs) My team and I actually made a last-minute decision to release “Suitable” instead of another song that we had chosen originally. The video process was a little chaotic, to be honest. Can you tell us more about the inspiration behind the video for “Suitable”? Your music videos always have a unique concept and style. Turned out, it was such an interesting and fun experience, and I was so amazed by Dan’s talent and how cool of a person he is. Creating music virtually was not something I had done before, and I rarely do sessions with other people other than my producer Leo, so I was honestly a bit nervous going into this. I was instantly excited to work with him after listening to the music he had written/produced in the past. I think Dan Holloway and I got connected through my publishing, so we didn’t really know each other before our session. How did this collaboration come about, and what was it like creating music virtually? It was created during the pandemic via a Zoom session with a London-based producer. During our interview, Amilli delves deeper into her artistic path, discussing her views on fashion and her reluctance to reveal too much about her personal life and experiences.Ĭongratulations on your new single “Suitable”. With a keen focus on introspection and self-discovery, the tracks promise to be a soulful reflection of her journey. In May, her debut album SOAMI will be released, showcasing the artist’s profound personal growth and newfound sense of self-assurance to the world. Her voice exudes the lightness of warm sunny days, and filling listeners with a sense of tranquility and joy. Produced in collaboration with Leo Müller-Klönne, Suitable is a refreshing pop song with unexpected twists and a delightful melody. Fast forward a few years, and Amilli has won the coveted 1Live newcomer award, performed in front of millions, and played countless live shows.Īnd today, Amilli just dropped her new single Suitable, accompanied by a simple yet captivating video. Growing up in a small German town, the thought of becoming a teacher had crossed her mind, but a chance collaboration with a friend changed everything. These, the physical manifestations of love, attained or sought, imagined and wished for, offer an infinite horizon of possibilities and limitations, of excesses and sacrifices, of plans and discoveries, of investigations of connections.From Soundcloud to a debut album, Amilli‘s journey as a musician has been nothing short of serendipitous. “Love, the more I think about it, is not a physical tangible thing, though it can be expressed in concrete terms, to be caressed and smelled and seen. “ I have lived enough to know that the journey into adulthood is laced with detours, with dead ends.” “You must understand that in raising a man one has to raise oneself first, to master and respect life’s parameters, to cultivate fonts of wisdom.” I am probably overdoing it, but what the hell… /Od8rqahvvw- Nthikeng Mohlele February 11, 2022 I am sorry Beloveds, but this book ‘photographs’ so well.
