Germany’s finest (as far as progressive sounds and flows are concerned) dub label, named Echo Beach and inspired by the lyrics and spirit of that track, has set out to pay tribute to this song which is more than a classic. The first remix tribute (30 year anniversary) of Echo Beach, done by a couple of international renowned remixers. and released on the Echo Beach has already enjoyed a strong reputation world wide. Marki Gane, the original composer of Echo Beach and still a member of Martha And The Muffins – and also married to Martha Johnson (lead singer of the band Martha And The Muffns – enthused: `It sounds as if the original ECHO BEACH was shot into outer space, hit a planet and floated back to earth in pieces…!!!

NOW – 40 years later – after Echo Beach was written – the Echo Beach label proudly presents the 40th Anniversary Remixes and the full and essentiel: … it is one of those tunes that on first hearing you like, but can`t exactly place why, and by 30 seconds into the spin you´re close to falling in love. You just have to go with it and this seductively simple number is just that. Don´t try to understand it just accept this as love at first sight.

Martha Johnson the female vocalist of ECHO BEACH said recently:

We all feel time. It goes too slow or too fast. Everything today seems to come and go in a flash and is so disposable and easily replaced.

Perhaps this is why a reflective song like Echo Beach is still so popular. The sentiment expressed in the lyrics and music is universal and lasting. 2020 marks fourty years since the song that Mark Gane wrote and I sang was first heard around the world. The passage of time only makes the song more nostalgic for many people who hear it and recall a special time in their lives.

YThe reinvention of Echo Beach by so many artists brings new life and a new audience to the song. After all, don’t we all long to get back to the beach?
