Camy Huot – Echoes In My Room (Digital/Vinyl Album – Wave Tension Records)
Camy Huot is a French DJ based in the Netherlands, and “Echoes In My Room” marks her debut as a musician. More a mini-album than a full-length release, it contains six tracks.
The record takes us on a dark musical journey, shaped by heavy, raw electro sounds. There’s a clear ’80s influence, though Huot reworks it into something more contemporary. She experiments with vocals—sometimes treated as effects, at other times delivered in a semi-spoken style. One track is sung in French, while another stands out as an instrumental with a more melodic character.
While the compositions could benefit from further development and refinement, this remains a respectable debut. (Rating:6½).

I have been working for over 30 years with Side-line as the main reviewer. My taste is eclectic, uncoventional and I prefer to look for the pearls, even if the bands are completely unknown, thus staying loyal to the Side-Line philosophy of nurturing new talents.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
