Echodrone is a San Francisco-based post-shoegaze band that has been weaving layers of guitars, analog synths, and ethereal vocals into their distinctive tapestry of sound since their inception in 2005. Co-founders Eugene Suh and Brandon Dudley set the groundwork for Echodrone with a vision to meld the lush, sensory textures of shoegaze with elements of electronic and ambient music. Their sound is characterized by a blend of melancholic melodies, swirling guitar riffs, and a rich atmospheric depth.

Over the years, Echodrone has evolved through various lineups and sonic explorations, reflected in a consistent flow of releases that showcase their penchant for reimagining the boundaries of their genre. Albums such as "The Sun Rose in a Different Place" and "Bon Voyage" have accumulated critical acclaim, cementing their status in the shoegaze and post-rock communities. Their most recent works, including "Resurgence" and "Everything Starts to Be a Reminder," continue to push their artistry forward, marrying the introspective ambience of their early creations with a matured and expansive approach. "Five," along with its companion release "Five Remixes," highlights their collaborative spirit, demonstrating Echodrone's willingness to reinvent their sound through the eyes of fellow artists. Through each record, Echodrone has maintained a dedication to their craft, resulting in a rich discography that is both nostalgic and refreshingly innovative.
