" Ilia Darlin performs on stage as if the Panda Theater was the Hollywood Bowl. That is how one should do it." Musikexpress - Pop-Kultur Berlin

“Ilia has perfected a performative style like no other in the music industry…she gradually shed her layers as she shuffled into a hypnotic and futuristic goth-pop that took a mystical turn with the use of the traditional organ of santour, creating a perfectly orchestrated musical chaos.”
