Simple search never hurt anyone. Clearly many think it will, though.
- Apart from the standard version of 'Accelerated Evolution', Inside Out Music also released an exclusive limited edition version of the album that came with the bonus disc containing demo tracks from Devin's more ambient side project EKO.
The name actually came from a really quick idea I had. I have these strips for each channel on my mixing board, and one of them is an echo channel. I always spell it as EKO. So I was just looking around the room looking for a name for this piece of music I was creating, and I saw EKO. I thought that would do. Actually, I'm doing a project right now that's an advanced version of what EKO was. EKO is just an idea of what I'll be doing. The way I look at it, if people don't like it, that's fine. There are two other albums I just put out, so shut the fuck up! [Laughs] If you don't like one, chances are you'll like another. If you don't like all three, there are fifteen million other bands out there. There are no plans to released EKO in its entirety in the future, but I'll be doing some more EKO stuff in the future. It might not be called EKO though. I'm doing this project at the moment where I use keyboards and computers, and I do it with a partner, and that's good. Remember when I told you last time that EKO was an experimentation with my new mixing desk, well this is much, much, much better!
- When listening to EKO, there are some distant vocal passages on the track 'Echo'. Devin however, isn't the culprit in this case.
I don't know what that is actually. I lifted a lot of samples off the T.V. In all honesty, I haven't listened to it in a long time. I recorded that about a year before 'Accelerated Evolution', so It's been sitting around for a long time. Since then, I've recorded about an albums worth of stuff that I could put out right now. The next record I put out will probably have a full album's worth of ambient stuff. I'll keep doing that stuff because I think it's really going to turn out cool in the future. EKO is very much a documentation of the very first time I tried doing this sort of stuff. As simple and stupid as it is, it's kind of cool to listen to. At least there aren't any vocals to fuck it up.
