Official descriptions as featured on FM4 Soundpark (ORF/Ö1).
Christmas In The Air
Release: Nov 14, 2025 | FM4 Soundpark: Currently featured on front page
A modern indie-rock/pop-rock Christmas song with warm melodies, emotional storytelling, and a hymnal chorus. The track connects holiday spirit with contemporary rock sound and a very personal note.
Forever Our Song
Release: Oct 31, 2025 | FM4 Soundpark: Featured Track
Part 2 of the "Skye" storyline – finding each other after a separation. An emotional pop-rock ballad about love, loss, and hope.
Skye
Release: Aug 30, 2025 | FM4 Soundpark: Featured Track | Chart: #1 TopSound (Week 41.25)
A hymnic pop-punk song full of raw emotion – a cry for freedom, for love, and for holding on to something that seems long lost. Between distorted guitars, a driving beat, and a hook that immediately burns into memory, Wally Echo builds an intense soundscape: vulnerable and powerful at the same time.
Friendship Zone (Punkrock Version)
Release: Aug 9, 2025 | FM4 Soundpark: Premiere Feature
A punchy punk-rock anthem about the bittersweet pain of being “just friends” with someone you secretly love. Driven by raw guitars, gang-vocals and live-show energy, the track blends sarcasm, heartbreak and humor – turning a universal frustration into a sing-along shout.
Also featured on FM4 Soundpark: "Take It Back" – a protest punk anthem.
