Ultralight (2024)
“Ultralight” is Ethan Janais Matthew’s debut solo album. After a prolific eight-album stretch of work with his Greyhaven and Echo Us projects, his music has returned to the synthesizer as its main source of musical inspiration.
Unlike Ethan’s previous works, Ultralight is short and sweet, but also unwavering and harmonically rich in its atmospherics. Stacking chords on top of chords, and then on top of (mostly) gentle beats and lyrical mysticism, the album features three vocal pieces and three instrumentals that swoop and change in the blink of an eye, and return to their familiar themes.
“With age, one can get extremely scrupulous about what is worth pursuing musically. For that reason, and many others- Ultralight is not part of my former Echo Us project. It was also fitting that for the first time, I created an album entirely by myself with no other studio musicians”.
