Mason's cymbals begin faintly, then crescendo as the section continues. Gilmour plays muted guitar notes to match the bassline, which Waters himself begins halfway through the section. Wright plays an organ solo, which lasts through the end of the "build-up".
At the end of the "build-up" is a musical climax, where Gilmour plays high guitar notes in A major while the rest of the band plays only the bass notes. Following this is a short sequence structurally similar to the "build-up", except the entire chord progression is transposed up a whole tone to match the tonic of the song, C minor.
The end of the instrumental climax leads into the song's third verse, followed by another "chorus". The band plays over two more "chorus" structures, and then a repeated, quiet verse progression serves as the outro of the song.

In this section, a "choral"-sounding segment is heard. This was created by placing two tape recorders in opposite corners of a room; the main chord tapes of the song were then fed into one recorder and played back while at the same time recording. The other recorder was then also set to play what was being recorded; this created a delay between both recordings, heavily influencing the structure of the chords while at the same time giving it a very "wet" and "echoey" feel.
The piece had its genesis in a collection of separate musical experiments written by the band, some of which had been left over from previous sessions. The group then arranged the pieces in order to make a coherent minute piece originally referred to as "Nothing, Parts 1—24". In an interview in with Mojo , when asked who had composed "Echoes", Wright stated he had composed the long piano intro and the main chord progression of the song. In the same interview he confirmed that Waters wrote the lyrics. It originally referred to the meeting of two celestial bodies.
The first verse originally took words from Muhammad Iqbal 's poem "Two Planets", and later this was rewritten with the incorporation of original underwater imagery instead.
The title "Echoes" was also subjected to significant revisions before and after the release of Meddle: Waters, a devoted football fan, proposed that the band call its new piece "We Won the Double" in celebration of Arsenal 's victory, [12] and during a tour of Germany he jovially introduced it on two consecutive nights as "Looking Through the Knothole in Granny's Wooden Leg" a reference to The Goon Show and The Dam Busters , respectively. The song was performed for Live at Pompeii , where it was split in two halves to open and close the film.
It was performed eleven times on the band's A Momentary Lapse of Reason world tour , in a slightly rearranged version trimmed down to 17 minutes. Gilmour resurrected the song on his On an Island Tour as the closing number of the main set. Wright would bring the Farfisa out of retirement just for this song for the tour. Gilmour told Rolling Stone in upon returning to Pompeii to play a solo show that he would have loved to perform "Echoes" but felt he could not do so without Wright, who had died in — "There's something that's specifically so individual about the way that Rick and I play in that, that you can't get someone to learn it and do it just like that.
Similar to the Dark Side of the Rainbow effect, at-large rumours suggested that "Echoes" coincidentally synchronises with Stanley Kubrick 's film A Space Odyssey , when played concurrently with the final minute segment titled "Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite".
Echoes (Pink Floyd song)
At the time of the film's production in —, Pink Floyd was not working on any material suitable for the film, nor were they contacted about supplying music. It is likely that Kubrick never heard the band's music until after the film was finished. The George Greenough film Crystal Voyager concludes with a minute segment in which the full version of "Echoes" accompanies a montage of images shot by Greenough from a camera mounted on his back while surfing on his kneeboard.
In interviews promoting Amused to Death , Waters claimed that Andrew Lloyd Webber had plagiarised the riff from "Echoes" for sections of the musical The Phantom of the Opera ; nevertheless, he decided not to file a lawsuit regarding the matter. Yeah, the beginning of that bloody Phantom song is from Echoes. I couldn't believe it when I heard it.

It probably is actionable. But I think that life's too long to bother with suing Andrew fucking Lloyd Webber. British musician Ewan Cunningham covered "Echoes" in a YouTube video which featured him playing all of the parts himself. This cover was heavily based on the Live at Pompeii version and went on to receive praise from Nick Mason. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Criminal psychologist Kate Fuller is assigned to the murder of a man who has seemingly been strangled in his sleep by his wife and the only witness is their eight-year-old daughter, Sophie Struggling with horrifying, sleep-paralysis induced visions, a young writer retreats with her boyfriend to an isolated desert house.
As the visions intensify, she finds herself on the verge of losing her mind Not an outstanding story in itself except for it's concept Sleep Paralysis, but solid and a good classic revenge story. Except Billy Wirth and Steven Brand, the cast was unknown to me, but holds up the performances pretty good throughout. Lead actress is at times hard to empathize with and would have liked to feel more depth to her particular performance, but generally believable. Sleep paralysis is an intriguing phenomenon and first time I have seen this in a feature.
Found myself researching for quite a while after watching the movie and was surprised this phenomenon has not been played out in a movie until now. The music is tasteful and interesting choice of house where the story plays out. Definitely has the look, pacing and feel of a European movie. The most action happens towards the end, which I would have wanted a bit more of throughout.
Not a bad movie, quite unique of its kind today, so I would personally recommend it. Visit Prime Video to explore more titles.
