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'.

Maradj Velem
Echo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Oly szép volt az álom, szomorú az ébredés.
Úgy várom az éjjelt, mikor újra látom én.
Mert az álom, ha eljő, két karomban tartom rég,
Velem marad, amíg élek én.
Szinte hallom a hangját, érzem bőre illatát,
Így tudnám szeretni egy életen át,
De a hajnal, ha eljő, eltűnik a látomás,
Mért kell elmúlnod éji varázs?
Úgy kérlek, úgy kérlek, maradj velem még,
Érezzem bőröd illatát,
Úgy kérlek, úgy kérlek, ne mondj búcsút még,
Add nekem az éjszakát!
Ne menj el többé, ne mondj hát búcsút,
Hisz úgy vártam rád,
Maradj így nálam, maradj velem
Egy életen át!
És a hajnal, ha eljő, két karom átölel,
Tudom, most már soha többé nem hagysz el.
Úgy kérlek, úgy kérlek, maradj velem még,...
...Maradj nálam, maradj velem
Egy életen át!
És a hajnal, ha eljő, két karom átölel,
Tudom, most már soha többé nem hagysz el.
Úgy várom az éjjelt, mikor újra látom én.
Mert az álom, ha eljő, két karomban tartom rég,
Velem marad, amíg élek én.
Szinte hallom a hangját, érzem bőre illatát,
Így tudnám szeretni egy életen át,
De a hajnal, ha eljő, eltűnik a látomás,
Mért kell elmúlnod éji varázs?
Úgy kérlek, úgy kérlek, maradj velem még,
Érezzem bőröd illatát,
Úgy kérlek, úgy kérlek, ne mondj búcsút még,
Add nekem az éjszakát!
Ne menj el többé, ne mondj hát búcsút,
Hisz úgy vártam rád,
Maradj így nálam, maradj velem
Egy életen át!
És a hajnal, ha eljő, két karom átölel,
Tudom, most már soha többé nem hagysz el.
Úgy kérlek, úgy kérlek, maradj velem még,...
...Maradj nálam, maradj velem
Egy életen át!
És a hajnal, ha eljő, két karom átölel,
Tudom, most már soha többé nem hagysz el.
The lyrics to Echo's song "Maradj Velem" (Stay with Me) express the feeling of longing and yearning for a dream-like love that is fleeting. The opening line, "Oly szép volt az álom, szomorú az ébredés" (The dream was so beautiful, the awakening is sad), paints a contrast between the euphoria of the dream and the disappointment of reality. The singer eagerly awaits the night to come, hoping to see their beloved again. The dream seems to hold their love, as they long to keep it in their arms for as long as they live.
The singer vividly describes sensing the presence of their loved one, hearing their voice and smelling their skin. They yearn to love them for a lifetime, but as dawn arrives, the illusion disappears, questioning why the enchantment has to fade away. They plead for their loved one to stay with them, to let them feel their presence and enjoy the night together. The fear of parting is strong, as they have been eagerly waiting for this moment and don't want to say goodbye.
The chorus repeats the plea for their loved one to stay, and the belief that the dawn, despite its arrival, will not separate them anymore. The ending of the song reaffirms the longing for their loved one to stay with them for a lifetime, assuring that they will never be left again.
