Portland-based electronic duo ECHOS will be releasing their self-titled debut EP, via Seeking Blue Records on the 14th October. ECHOS have worked with the likes of Illenium and Crywolf and garnered previous support from the likes of Mr Suicide Sheep, Indie Shuffle, Nest HQ, The Waxhole, Impose amongst others. Reaching over 20 million views on Youtube is a significant achievement for the young duo but just the beginning of ECHOS exciting future. ECHOS will be playing California’s biggest NYE festival, Snowglobe alongside Flume, Odesza, Major Lazer and Rufus Du Sol.
Sharing the restless romanticism and emotional depth of Tycho and Florence and the Machine, ECHOS draw on a diverse range of influences including Susie Suh, Robot Koch, Illenium as well as Daughter. ECHOS show exceptional lyrical and melodic mastery led by Lexi’s upfront, stirring and sultry vocals, brimming with intelligence and humanity. Lexi manages to tell a compelling story with such invention, melody and emotion all the while melancholic whilst soaring at the same time. Demanding to be loved and cutting to the core with latest single “Gold”, Lexi sings, “Your eyes say so much to me/ Your eyes say so/ Nobody knows who I am/ I’ve got intentions of gold/ With my plans”. Complimented perfectly by Tal’s achingly warm and dynamic production, he manages to coalesce compelling chords, ethereal soundscapes and wistful rhythms before building the track into a dramatic drum and epic choral section climax.
