  1. Congratulations to Erik Wollo ! This is a great acknowledge for him (its about time).!
    I started bying his records when Solstice came out ,and from that time everything is just getting better and better.
    Solstice is a favorite in my (Wollo)collection , but Gateway is a mind blowing Cd , thats my kind of music !!

    • Fantastic to rediscover Echoes Radio, could never forget Diliberto’s unmistakable voice in the night for 2h as I was listening in every week from Philadelphia, PA around 1995. I was back then just a teenager just out of high-school visiting the US as an exchange student from Eastern Europe. This was my first unforgettable contact with Lisa Gerard, Steve Roach, Patrick O’Hearn and even with international world trance -music. Can’t minimize how eager I waited to hear the next show an even recorded a few on tapes (yeah that was still the cassette era) which I would listen again and again trying to figure out the names of the artists amd track the albums over the years. Echoes was a formative and ear opening experience that also drove me later after 2000 to try and organize festival and gigs for musicians I loved and appreciated. Remember in particular a show with a British (?!) researcher of trance music from Bali to North Africa (Moroccan Gnawa music?) to Condomble to Italian Tarantella who brought this planetary circumterrestrial hypnotic rhythms that appealed to something universal…

    • Well nice of you to comment on something that’s three years old, but I always find facile comments like this coming from someone who doesn’t listen, but just has a snobbish agenda to push forward.
