Echo The Moon is the title of experimental pop band Impossible Recording Machine's second album. It was released in 2004. IRM have called Echo The Moon their first true record, as Axioms was more of a sampler record than a full album. The record has a very strong emotional focus, ripe with lulling ambience and intricate songwriting. Various reviewers have mentioned that there is a strong Pink Floyd influence throughout, not counting the opening cover of Pink Floyd's "Fearless". "Like Air" was originally featured on an older version of the IRM website as a demo, under the name "glider".
