- Echospace's Stephen Hitchell will release his first solo album under the Intrusion moniker in January.
Stephen Hitchell, one-half of the acclaimed duo Echospace, will go solo early next year under the name Intrusion with a full-length entitled The Seduction of Silence.
Hitchell has always been regarded as the dub lover of the two, and he is set to indulge that side of his musical personality here with vocals by Paul St. Hilaire on two of the album's nine tunes. The island vibe runs throughout Seduction even when vocals aren't present: "Montego Bay" reportedly is "packed with low-end punch, shuffle riddims and a rockers vibe," while "Tswana Dub" features "Augustus Pablo-style melodicas." Considering RA dropped a coveted 5/5 mark on the latter when it came out in August in 12-inch form, we're hoping that Hitchell can maintain that level of quality throughout.
