Yumi Zouma's excellent debut EP is officially out tomorrow on Cascine (if you haven't been following along, you can stream the whole thing after the jump), and to commemorate the occasion, like-minded dream pop mastermind Wild Nothing offers up his own hypnotic, gently pulsing take on the group's soft-disco-funk EP opener/mood-setter, "A Long Walk Home For Parted Lovers".
