Los Angeles duo Echocell are proud to announce the release of their debut video for their single “Babylon“. Featuring crashing waves, rolling hills and the enchanting front woman Belinda Kazanci, the video is a true masterpiece.
Echocell’s newly-released single “Babylon”, from the EP of the same name (due out 11/18), is a labor of love between Istanbul-born/Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter/front woman Belinda Kazanci & Los Angeles-based songwriter/keyboardist/programmer Adam Beltran.
“Babylon” was co-written with Wally Gagel and Xandy Barry of Wax LTD, the production duo best known for their works with Muse, New Order, Orbit, and Sebadoh (among others). Wally and Xandy produced the track along with some of the others on the EP, bringing dark ‘80s synth-pop fragments and decadent cinematic arrangements to the mix.
Kazanci tapped into her Armenian roots on this new EP, featuring the traditional Armenian duduk instrument, while weaving in Turkish lyrics & melodies to reflect many years spent in Istanbul growing up around Turkish folk music.
Recorded between Los Angeles and New York, Echocell’s new single and EP feature a solid team of international players: Simon Katz (Jamiroquai, Gorillaz) on electric and acoustic guitars, Jesse Graham (Fatboy Slim) on bass, and Paul Simon’s favorite duduk player, Souren Baronian. The puzzle is completed by Dave Darlington (Bjork, David Guetta, Pete Tong) and Wally Gagel at the mixing board.
The “Babylon” single is available now worldwide through iTunes, AmazonMP3, and many other online retail outlets.
For a limited time the track can be downloaded for free from the Echocell Bandcamp page – http://smarturl.it/echocellBC.
