More exciting, Young Echo-related news this afternoon, details are finally out on their highly anticipated first collaborative offering, the 13-track LP Nexus. The Bristol collective, which stands for pretty much everything that NFOP loves about the contemporary UK electronic music scene and that incorporates long-standing favourites such as Vessel, El Kid, Kahn, and Zhou, attempts to showcase a representative cross section of the musicians' impressive work so far, a collection of individual tracks that emphasize the unifying aesthetic without negating the differences, an approach that is, we can only assume at this point, not totally different from London collective Old Apparatus' concept. for the time being, watch the video for "Jupiter Rise" below.
Nexus is out in May on Ramp Recordings.

On top of that, stream another track of the LP below, Seb Gainsborough aka Vessel featuring Lily Fannon's "My Child My Chain", a track that I believe we've mentioned already a couple of times before – a truly haunting piece of pop music, and in our humble opinion one of Vessel's finest productions. As far as we're informed, the track itself is about two years old, and as it's likely to be taken down from Soundcloud as soon as the Ramp people realise that it's still up there, we'd suggest you enjoy it while it lasts.
