Echo Us album sampler review / 2004: Ethan Matthews, the sole brains behind the creation of the ever progressive ensemble Echo Us has recorded a three tracker which just cannot be labeled. The consistent use of synthesizer, drum programming and almost rock and reggae type smooth vocals give this baby an eerie presence. Musically, it is quite atmospheric mixing in plenty of prog rock influences tied in very well with his own unique twist on this spiritual, ethereal journey of the world beyond the cerebral cortex. Echo Us debut album review / 2005: There is something ephemeral about Ethan Matthews, the sole wonder behind Echo Us; it’s hard to even define his musical ingenuity. Listening to this nine tracker brings images of vast oceans in a totally isolated galaxy, which is being innocently dragged into the darkness of another dimension. Also, Ethan’s eclectic singing, heavily influenced by the prog rock bands of the eighties adds even more aroma to the trance-lie scent produced on memorable psychedelic rockers: “Directed Study” and “Who Loves You”. Besides these two numbers, this album is a work of talent and creativity of the highest order. Don’t let this pass you by. Sarjoo Devani- Explicitly Intense Magazine
