Jacob Collier – “Time Alone With You” (Feat. Daniel Caesar)
Jacob Collier is one of those blokes who's been around for years and years, building steam outside the critical conversation, forging relationships across the music industry. He first came to fame as a North London teenager posting splitscreen covers on YouTube in 2012. Now 25, he's become the kind of unstoppable force who can tour the world behind a four-part, 50-song album he's releasing over the course of two or three years. That project is called Djesse, and today — on the heels of contributing to Coldplay's Everyday Life — he's beginning to roll out the third volume. The four volumes of Djesse supposedly represent the four phases of the day. They present Collier's omnivorous ethos, which brings together elements of classical, funk, jazz, folk, soul, hip-hop, and alternative rock among other traditions. He really goes out of his way to cast a wide net, but not at the expense of coherence. Vol. 1, released last December, involved contributions from Laura Mvula, Voces8, Hamid El

This election gives us the impossible choice, writes Robert Peston
How do you weigh a once-in-a-generation transfer of power from private sector to public sector and from capital to labour, against an irreversible rupture with the European Union? That is the choice being offered to voters, by Labour and the Tories respectively. Talk about chalk and cheese, or bicycles versus fish. How on earth do you decide, if you haven't made up your mind already, which you like best? You could argue that the desire among some voters to squeeze the private sector's pips till they squeak and those that want to take a chainsaw to the UK's ties with the EU - with only a relatively small group apparently wanting both - stem from similar social and economic causes. Namely that the way we've run this place has eroded the living standards, security and a sense of being heard for millions of people, especially those outside the big metropolises, as well as among the young.
