Actually, I really like this song, and it's a nice surprise when it comes up.

Ekova was a French-based trio, headed by American-born Dierdre Dubois, who originated the name. "Its roots are in echo, and ova, signifying the feminine side," she explains. "But it's not supposed to have a literal meaning, just a beautiful sound. I wanted a word I'd never heard before." Much of her lyricism shares the linguistic experimentalism/artistry of their name, with utterances floating in between Celtic, English, and Persian at times, as well as influences from Irish and English folk music.
Ah, Ovas, Echos, ... French.  That explains it all.

Actually, the previous person was correct.  The track that was played was "The Hop" by Radio Citizen

Right on. I love this group and haven't heard them for years. Cocteau Twins meets DJ remixing. Heaven's Dust is an even stronger album from them.

Lisa Gerrard did the same thing in her Dead Can Dance days, used her voice purely as an instrument. Used to drive me bonkers trying to figure out the language she was using until I twigged. This number is real toe-tapping fun, and indeed "rumbunctious" as someone else wrote. 8 from the Nottingham jury.

Note: There is an orange colored remix album with all of their songs from Heaven's Dust remixed by DJs (has a dragonfly on the front).  It is FANTASTIC.
