ECHOBREAKOUT was built using The EchoNest Remix Library and The Löve2d framework.
Default music for the application was provided by the Free Music Archive, specifically, Trouba by Steve Gunn from the album Soundeyet, Latin Jeta by Los Sundayers from the album Eterno Domingo, and Monster on Campus by Halloween from the album S/T. All distributed under Creative Commons BY-NC-SA.
