When the derangement has reached the limitless limits. Like the sound of a light-beam reaching the immense gravitational waves of a black hole. Is there sound in nothingness? This is your Outermost reality.

“Sensory Memory” marks the second installment on Echovolt's brand new series of mini-albums that has opened them up to more experimental fare. The first tone of those series was set by “Messages From A Better Destiny” from the up-start Greek outfit Templeyard Studios and now Australian producer Kane Ikin is about to follow. Kane Ikin is an experimental musician from Melbourne. Drawing from an isolated upbringing on the south coast of Western Australia, he creates music influenced by science fiction, broken synthesizers and endless horizons. Even though Kane has a solid discography behind him in the lead up to this year, 2016 will perhaps be seen as his breakthrough as he has already delivered two outstanding works in 2016 – the tense and atmospheric “Modern Pressure” LP (Type Recordings) and its more dancefloor-minded companion “Basalt Crush” EP (Latency Recordings). Equal parts narcotic and kinetic, "Sensory Memory” is built as an exploration in the genres and sounds formative to Kane’s sound.

Next release on Echovolt's regular run is the debut ep by Priori, co-founder of Naff Recordings. Three cuts of large-scale psychedelia where machines get squeezed and bent for sound. It’s dynamic Acid for our constantly evolving and restless minds. An ode to the environment that nurtures us, an attempt to ring mod the sun and the sea.

Two dark, adventurous and intense mid tempo mind benders by the mysterious producer K100 SIGNAL.[...The signal was lost along ago. A "slowtard" rhythm surfaced. as you get deeper into alignment you discover the deconstructed beats from another decay. K100 signal is an elusive project produced in the pitch black code of indulgence...]

Echovolt is thrilled to finally bring you the work of the first Greek producer on their growing "reissue" catalog offering two ultra-rare recordings that lived on the shelf for exactly two decades. The then 16-year old Starcount recorded those two stripped-down cuts straight to DAT tape in his bedroom studio in Athens during the late 90s between cutting classes and sailing in the Aegean Sea.Despite his young age both "Calma" and "Jeraldine" showcase top notch production skills with solid arrangements featuring the typical vocal samples of the period underlined by hypnotic melodies, jazzy chords and a densely populated pallet of drum hits. It is most likely that the above mentioned tracks might be the earliest Detroit influenced productions ever made in Greece around that time!Suitable for night cruising and any kind of rides with friends and family!

For the fifth instance in their reissue series, Echovolt Records brings us four lush house gems by one of the most influential Italian producers...Carlo Troja aka Don Carlos. Don Carlos started as a dj in the late '70s and debuted as a producer towards the end of the 80's with the cult single 'Alone', which pretty soon became one of the anthems of the international Deep House scene. "Inspiration EP" focuses on some of his finest productions from the mid '90s that were only available on his rare "Aqua" vinyl promo EP. This releases makes an effort to capture Don Carlos' unique approach on classic House with lot of Afro-american jazz sounds and ambient influences, that created a timeless deep jazzy house with a strong Mediterranean twist on it!

For the first release in 2017, Echovolt draws from the Canadian continent to bring an ep from mysterious producer from the west coast.An inventory of thoughtful cuts bringing dubby motifs, early Italian house elements, and moody synth-work. A diverse expansive 12" presented with an all around deep, straight to tape sound quality.

Echovolt expands its remit with the launch of a new series of mini-albums with the first edition coming from Templeyard Studios, a recently formed project of Berlin-based Greek artists Miltiades and Goolyk. Met for the first time in Berlin in 2014 and pretty soon started sharing sonic ideas and researching how they could affect the human brain, using hardware sound equipment.
