Bemerkungen / Comments:

Run through the hallways. If you’re lucky, you’ll find the light switch.
„These guys remind me of older Pink Floyd. Truly great musicians.“
Drew Roulette (dredg)
„...a pleasing variety of styles. There’s lots going on in the musical cosmos of the echolons))) ... Progressive Pop, that draws you in and takes you for a ride.“
Rock Times
„echolons))) succeed again and again in always creating a dark and exciting atmosphere in their diverse and sampler-filled compositions. That’s absorbing and at times downright hypnotizing.“
Wiesbadener Tageblatt
With the new album „Idea of A Labyrinth”, echolons))) are going on another ride through the genre “unconventional guitar music”: somewhere between U2, Foo Fighters, Incubus, Pink Floyd and Porcupine Tree, they are looking for their own niche. Echo and atmosphere meet edgy riffs. Between rock, prog, pop and whatever.
Production
As diverse as the album‘s songs are the various stops the album took on it’s creative journey: Frankfurt/ Main – Moscow – San José/California – Hamburg and Krefeld.
Recorded in Jörg See‘s Performance Studios in Frankfurt am Main and mixed in Nick Samarin’s Orange Studio in Moscow, the album was dressed with an elaborate and colorful artwork in California by none other than Drew Roulette (dredg’s bassist)! After final mastering and neat layouting in Hamburg, Krefeld label Tonzonen’s Dirk Raupach himself was convinced to publish the album!

Songs
Inspired by the postmodern and dark novel house of leaves, the album deals with humanity’s most basic fears (Idea of a Labyrinth), self-enslavement and incapacitation in the digital age (Prism Is A Dancer), hidden, never-to-be-revealed family secrets (Questions Never Asked), homesickness (Leaving The City), the tightrope walk of love (Act Of Balance), the deep sea as a mirror of the subconsciousness (Midwater) und agonizing nights of insomnia (Science Of Sleep).
past, present…
The two hearts behind echolons))) are René Zeuner and Daniel Dorn from Frankfurt am Main. Both have released a number of records and played numerous shows over the years, among others with cloud nothings, murder by death, ghost of tom joad, sport and the kilians.
The two guitarists and singers have been friends for a long time, and despite changing line-ups have always pushed a common vision with equal energy and drive, letting their music grow even under the constraints of everyday life, jobs and their families. Simply not giving up. Both have gotten older, but keep moving forward.
...and future
In their current line-up with Martin Prasche on bass guitar and Hendrik Prause on drums, Zeuner and Dorn have gained fresh and most importantly adept bad mates. Once named after the predecessor of the US surveillance project “Prism”, the echolons))) now more than ever strive to be heard.
The first singles „Leaving The City” and “Prism Is A Dancer” will be released in October, followed by the album “Idea of a Labyrinth” (limited vinyl/DigiPac/Digital) on November 15th 2019.
