a cinematic alt pop rush glowing with longing, wonder and widescreen emotion

‘technicolour dreams’ blooms like light through water, slow at first, then suddenly vast and shimmering. echomatica lean fully into their atmospheric instincts here, crafting a track that feels suspended between dream pop haze and alt rock pulse. it is intimate but expansive, heavy with longing yet full of colour, a song built for late night reflection and early morning hope.

based in tāmaki makaurau, auckland, the four piece have become one of new zealand’s most promising indie acts, praised for their cinematic soundscapes and emotional honesty. that character is unmistakable here. charlie maclean’s vocals move with a soft ache, bright and bruised at once, while aj’s shimmering guitars and programming wrap everything in glowing texture. scott samson’s bass gives the track its pulse, steady and warm, and matt chong’s guitar lines widen the horizon, adding depth and drift to the arrangement.

the single feels emboldened compared to earlier releases, capturing the swelling wonder that their signature sound has been reaching toward. it is lush, spacious and gorgeously paced, a song that invites you to sit inside its colours and let them blur into memory.
