Close your eyes. Think back to your childhood. To falling asleep. What do you hear? What do you remember hearing? Chances are it’s a lullaby.

For Damian Marhulets, his interest in this musical form stems from the birth of his daughter, a moment he felt would always arrive. “I’ve had this strange premonition since I was a teenager that I would be a father and have a daughter…I always knew it was going to happen,” he explains. And yet when it did, it changed him profoundly – and musically – in ways he’d never imagined.

“We found a couple of lullabies on YouTube, and it was interesting to find a piece of music you can play for hours or days. Then I realised there are musical pieces which are very important to my child and my relationship with her, pieces that are not to get her to sleep but to help her wake. So I started thinking about the concept of the lullaby, which is a threshold song; a song to help you to get to the other side of your consciousness.” And thus the seed for his dreamy, immersive new album, Lilith’s Lullabies, was sown.
