HI. I’M LUKE JONES.

Somebody had to
save the boring stuff.

Turns out, a lot of us miss it.

The Echoes record and landscape logoECHOES OF NOSTALGIA · BY LUKE JONES

Echoes started with an interest in old footage and that strange feeling of recognizing something you had completely forgotten.

A Walmart checkout. An old Target department sign. A mall full of people just spending an afternoon. The footage is ordinary. What comes back when you watch it usually isn’t.

I find these little time capsules, make videos around them, and share what catches my attention. Sometimes it’s funny. Sometimes it hits much harder than you expected a grocery store to hit.

We bring different memories to the same picture.

That’s what makes this interesting. You might recognize a place I’ve never been. You might know what was just out of frame. The comments and the stories people send in can be as good as the footage itself.

Now Echoes has 144,000 people following on TikTok and a growing home on YouTube. I want this website to be somewhere the discoveries can live beyond a single scroll.
