About Echo Haus: Echo Haus is an experimental electronic music project. Using mostly analog synthesizers to create washes of immense sound and complex textures. The philosophy behind the music is to work in real time from a starting point and let it evolve naturally which gives each performance a unique experience that will never be recreated.
Echo Haus’s only member, A.J. has recently teamed up with Angelspit performing for their Noiseferatu tour and lending some sonic doom to their latest album “Cult of Fake”.
