Bounce back immediately before Foxtrot? (4)

I believe the answer is:

echo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'before foxtrot?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bounce back immediately' is the wordplay.
'back' says to take the final letters (the letter at the back).
'immediately' becomes 'cho' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
The last letter of 'bounce' is 'e'.
'e'+'cho'='ECHO'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for echo that I've seen before include "Mimic" , "Sound heard before" , "Be suggestive of" , "She loved Narcissus - it's recalled" , "Greek nymph, spurned by Narcissus, who pined away until only her voice remained" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
