A record that sounds like it's fighting with light and shadow in real time is very interesting. With "Harvey Dent," Anjalo steps into that tension through his other project, The Echelon Bureau. The song is a piano-led soul anthem that has both emotional weight and modern swagger.
The song makes its presence known from the first chord. They are bold, striking, and not afraid to take up space. It feels like the beginning of a movie, when you already know how high the stakes are. The chords rise and fall, giving you a sense of urgency that never lets you get comfortable. That's the point.
There is an undeniable Alicia Keys-like energy in the DNA here, it's soulful at its core, driven by melody, and anchored by a hook that hits hard. But "Harvey Dent" doesn't make you feel dreamy. It leans forward. The attitude is hip-hop-adjacent, but not in a way that detracts from the soul foundation. It's more in the way it sounds and feels. The hook is the part that knocks you out. It doesn't just stay, it needs to be played again. The performance has a real feel, like someone standing in the middle of their truth and letting it echo.
