Jump Source, the Montréal-based duo of Patrick Holland and Francis Latreille—also known as Priori—step into a defining new chapter with the release of their debut album Fold, out now via NAFF Recordings. Marking their most ambitious project to date, the record channels the spirit of the early-2000s electronic LP boom, balancing club functionality with a fluid, genre-blurring pop sensibility that refuses to sit still.
Anchored by previously released singles like “Empty Bars” featuring billy woods, “Close” with POiSON GiRL FRiEND, “Shattered” alongside Helena Deland and Ross Meen, and “Affect” featuring Loukeman, Fold unfolds as a wide-reaching statement. The album moves seamlessly between peak-time dancefloor energy and introspective songwriting, where candy-coated hooks collide with folktronic textures and unexpected rap detours.
That sense of unpredictability extends to the album’s broader cast of collaborators, which includes Harmony Index, CFCF, BEA1991, and more. Across its runtime, Fold leans into contrast—balancing euphoria and disorientation, connection and distance. The turbulence of life in music becomes a central thread, shaped by time spent on the road, fleeting encounters, and the surreal blur of shifting time zones. Throughout it all, the city looms large, rendered in vivid detail as both setting and emotional undercurrent.
To mark the release, Jump Source will debut their live show in their hometown of Montréal at Theatre Fairmount on Saturday, May 2. The duo will then return to New York City for a DJ set at Public Records on May 8, with additional live performances across Europe to follow.
Over the past decade, Patrick Holland and Francis Latreille have quietly built a reputation for pushing club music into more unpredictable territory—crafting tracks that marry dancefloor immediacy with sharp, unconventional turns. Working out of their shared studio, they’ve also become a sought-after production force, contributing writing, production, and mixing for artists such as James K., Car Culture, Maara, and Tiga.
With Fold, Jump Source crystallize that evolution into a debut that feels both expansive and deeply personal—one that captures the chaos, momentum, and fleeting clarity of life lived in and around the club.
