Echo and reverb—two sides of the same coin. Where the echo refers to the reflection of a sound that's heard after the original sound is played, reverberation is a mass of echoes that makes the sound persist in a certain space after the original sound is played, decaying very slowly. Echoes and reverb can be used to give something a "massive", imposing sound, as Power Echoes demonstrates. At the same time, a shorter echo can be used to provide a harsher, more ghoulish effect, as demonstrated in much of the UK Post-Punk and Goth Rock scene. Echoing Acoustics refers to the use of lots of (often electronic) echoes and reverb in music. This isn't that bad—for every album where one can't make out the lyrics because they're buried in layers upon layers of reverberation, there are albums where this trope is deployed to create something that sounds damn cool. Variations include reverse echo and reverse reverb are sound effects created as the result of recording an echo or reverb effect of an audio recording played backwards, giving it a ghoulish sound to it. The original recording is then played forwards accompanied by the recording of the echoed or reverberated signal which now precedes the original signal. The process produces a swelling effect preceding and during playback, creating a freakish feel to the sound. And if regular reverb ain't cool enough, reverse reverb can even more fucking cool, because why not? |

Echoes are part of the secret behind Phil Spector's famed "Wall of Sound" Signature Style of production. To elaborate, the Wall of Sound worked by having six or seven guitarists play the lead guitar part in unison, four or five bassists play the bass line in unison, a chamber ensemble of singers sing the backup, and so on—essentially creating rock orchestras—and recording the whole thing in an echo chamber. The result was a HUGE, REVERBERATING sound that fast became Spector's trademark. A great example of the Wall of Sound in action is "River Deep, Mountain High" by Tina Turner, largely considered to be his, and Turner's, crowning achievement. | |

Oneohtrix Point Never's album Chuck Person's Eccojam's Vol. 1 as Chuck Person combined this with Gratuitous Panning; almost every track was a slowed-down, looped sample with echo going back and forth from the left ear to the right ear. This album, as well as the album Holograms by 骨架的,note "Skeleton" in Chinese which did the same (though without the panning), heavily influenced the Vaporwave genre, as many tracks will either use echo, reverb, or both. | |

For their 2006 album Hosannas From The Basements Of Hell, Killing Joke chose to record in a basement studio in Prague, using '70s-era equipment. It shows. | |

Toys: Gwen finds Alsatia Zevo standing in the corner of the ladies' bathroom singing "In The Still Of The Night" to herself. Alsatia claims that the acoustics of that specific corner can give your voice a really good echoing reverb and convinces Gwen to join in and see for herself. | |

Mentioned in one FoxTrot strip: Peter is buying a CD and asks a salesman what he thinks of it. The salesman starts ripping into the CD, talking about the lame lyrics, ripped-off songs, and how almost half the songs have a very annoying reverb effect. ""Still, that is one hot naked chick on the cover." | |

The original version of the album Night of the Stormrider by Iced Earth had a huge amount of reverb, even on the vocals. Much of this was removed in the remaster. | |
