English record producer, composer, DJ, and artist, Matthew Barnes or as most people know him, Forest Swords is giving his first show at A38 Ship on the 16th of April. Before the show we were curious about his inspirations, creative process, future plans, and we got some answers.
Ahoy! ECHT!
Organic grooves, abstract patterns, melodic atmosphere and trance-inducing beats. Drawing from electronic music, but bringing it to life on real instruments, the futuristic four-piece ECHT!’s music is influenced by many styles, from experimental jazz through drum ‘n’ bass and trap to hip-hop. And on February 21, they will bring their innovative style to A38 from Brussels. Before their concert, the band talked about their history and creative processes.
