The absolute vocal and songwriting talent Eckoes has just released her new single through Absent Mind. Sounding well at home on the electronic label, she has just put together a soul-searching record titled “Cages.”
Heavily drenched in deep layers on melody and bubbling groove, “Cages” is the perfect introduction to an artist that is set to guest on forthcoming albums from Goldie and DJ DirtyFreud later this year. She is set to play at Glastonbury this summer and says of this single:
“It’s an easy trap. You follow the breadcrumbs your parents/society/ the magazines put out for you because you get a little round of applause each time. Until you look up one day and you’re so far from where you yourself wanted to go. Standing there trapped, screaming in a glass cage of your own making, going through the very shiny motions because you should be happy, right? Right?”
