Premiere: lullahush delivers intricate electronic emotion on ‘Elysium’

Dublin producer lullahush is gearing up to the release of his next project A City Made of Water and Small Love after a breakout year working with Bad Bones, Elkin and AE Mak.

Today we’re premiering ‘Elysium’, the new song from the Red Bull Music Academy alumnus.

On ‘Elysium’, the producer shares a melancholic tale of being stuck in your twenties. His gently hushed vocals head up a lush bed of building electronic glitches and shuffling processed drums. It’s a delicate track with beautiful moments of sadness and euphoria coming together through a smattering of unique instrumental touches in bells, pan pipes and intriguing found sounds sampling.

“I started writing this song when I was 17 and afraid of becoming a ‘hopeless twenty-something’. lullahush says of the song. “It grew up with me and became about the people you lose and the places you can’t get back to, but also about the people you stay with and the places you never stop going”. 

‘Elysium’ is released on Friday, August 2nd.
