Echo, a project from producers/multi instrumentalists JOY ASKEW & TAKUYA NAKAMURA, a seductive fusion of tradicional vocal jazz and downtempo electronic grooves.
On their eponymous debut, the New York duo puts a mesmerizing stamp on carefully-chosen jazz standards, as well as captivating originals. Echo was born from NYC's live drum & bass scene. Askew initially discovered Nakamura playing trumpet and keyboards at the SoHo nightclub Shine's popular party "Prohibited Beatz". The rotating live line-up of DJs, MCs, and diverse musicians inspired Askew instantly, because it reminded her of one of her biggest influences: Miles Davis' late-'60s electric period (In A Silent Way, Bitches Brew).
"At Shine I was seeing jazz re-emerging in a fresh way, because there's so much more technology to play with, and so many different directions you can go in, with drum and bass rhythms, and all the possibilities offered by electronics."
Askew and Nakamura began to collaborate. One afternoon at Askew's apartment, Nakamura played her a new track he'd been working on. "It was this great, bubbly rhythm," she recalls, and it inspired her to start singing the Cole Porter standard "I've Got You Under My Skin." The two seemingly disparate components fit hand-in-glove, and "within 20 minutes, we'd almost recorded the whole thing." By marrying the relaxed rhythmic undercurrents and cutting-edge production techniques with more-traditional songwriting, the pair had hit upon a unique direction for Echo.
One of the album's most affecting (and revealing) tracks is the moody, sensually rhythmic "Secret Self," inspired by Askew's long-standing love of Beat Generation authors like Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs, and Jack Kerouac. In fact, the specific impetus, according to the singer, was listening to the excerpt "Jazz of the Beat Generation" from the CD "Jack Kerouac Reads On The Road".
Besides his current work with live drum and bass act Nerve and neo-soul outfit Organic Grooves, Takuya Nakamura has played with such jazz notables as flugelhorn great Clark Terry, drummer/arranger Bob Moses, and saxophonist Ravi Coltrane.

--------------------------------------------
ECHO was born in France during the year of 1971 and in the 1990's he played with several pop bands as both a bassist and a guitarist, however he always felt slightly frustrated that somehow he could not quite express himself fully. So three years ago he shut himself in a room and began the journey in nurturing his craft, where he developed into the outstanding musical producer that we see today.
Myspace gave ECHO the opportunity to gain exposure and within four months, he had obtained world wide air play and interest from record companies in the U.S, Germany and of course his native France.
Can also be found on last.fm as Echo (Fr) & Echo Armando, although officially it's just 'Echo'.
Gondolsz-e majd rám
Echo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Csak Te voltál nékem, senki más
Elvitted álmomat,
Még látom arcodat
Mindíg kisért egy fájó gondolat
Gondolsz-e majd rám
Ha elmúlt az éjjel
Minden álmunkat
A hajnal tép széjjel
Hazudd, hogy fáj
Hogy most is fáj a búcsúzás
S hogy nem szerettél így
Még senki mást
Gondolsz-e majd rám
Ha más csókját kéred
Nem ölel majd át
Két karom téged
Hazudd hogy vársz
Örökké vársz, csak engem vársz
S hogy nem szerettél így
Még senki mást:
The lyrics of Echo's song "Gondolsz-E Majd Rám" (“Will You Think of Me”) depict a sense of longing for a lost love. The song begins with the line "Nem lehet még itt a búcsúzás" (This can't be goodbye just yet), expressing the singer's reluctance to let go. The second line reveals that the person they are addressing in the song was the only one for them, and they took their dreams with them. The images of the person's face haunt the singer, and they are constantly tormented by painful thoughts of loss.
The chorus of the song is a question: "Gondolsz-e majd rám / Ha elmúlt az éjjel?" (Will you think of me / When the night is over?). The singer poses this question, suggesting that they are still in the thoughts of the person they have lost. But they are aware that they are not the only ones in the picture, as the morning will break and shatter all their dreams - "minden álmunkat / a hajnal tép széjjel" (the dawn tears apart all our dreams).
The second verse begins with the singer pleading for honesty. They implore the person to say that they still feel the pain of the separation, and that they haven't loved anyone else in the same way. The chorus repeats, and the singer adds a new element to the question - what will the person do when they want to be held tightly, but the singer won't be there to embrace them. The song ends with the same question as the singer asks once again whether the person will ever think of them.

Nem lehet még itt a búcsúzás
It's not time to say goodbye just yet
Csak Te voltál nékem, senki más
You were the only one for me, no one else
Elvitted álmomat, Még látom arcodat
You took away my dreams, I still see your face
Mindíg kisért egy fájó gondolat
A painful thought always haunts me
Gondolsz-e majd rám, Ha elmúlt az éjjel
Will you think of me when the night is over?
Minden álmunkat, A hajnal tép széjjel
The dawn tears apart all our dreams
Hazudd, hogy fáj, Hogy most is fáj a búcsúzás
Lie and say that it hurts, that saying goodbye still hurts
S hogy nem szerettél így, Még senki mást
And that you didn't love anyone else like this before
Gondolsz-e majd rám, Ha más csókját kéred
Will you think of me when you ask for someone else's kiss?
Nem ölel majd át, Két karom téged
My two arms won't embrace you anymore
Hazudd hogy várs, Örökké várs, csak engem várs
Lie and say that you're waiting, waiting forever, just for me
S hogy nem szerettél így, Még senki mást
And that you didn't love anyone else like this before

1978-ban barátnőmmel mosolyszünet, a házuk elött Fiat-tal feszítettünk és ez a szám üvöltött az autóbol. Azóta együtt vagyunk!
