- Archive - Nothing Else (HD) (Londinium 1996)
Archive are a musical group based in London, England, whose music spans electronica, trip hop and progressive rock. Over their fifteen year history, the band have released seven studio albums and enjoyed moderate success throughout central Europe, while remaining little-known in their native Britain.
History
Archive were formed by Darius Keeler and Danny Griffiths in 1994 from the ashes of the UK breakbeat act Genaside II. Together with the female singer Roya Arab and the young rapper Rosko John, the band released their first album "Londinium" on Island Records in 1996, a mix of dark Trip hop (in a similar vein to Massive Attack), electronica and progressive music. The album received moderate critical acclaim, but due to internal dispute the band split up later that year.
However, in 1997 Keeler and Griffiths reformed Archive with another female singer (Suzanne Wooder) and in 1999 released their second album "Take My Head", a mix of pop and symphonic trip-hop far more melodic than its predecessor. The band have described this album as their least favourite of their albums.
Between 2002 and 2005 the band released three albums with singer Craig Walker (formerly of Power of Dreams) to growing popularity and critical acclaim, including a large following in France and Poland. These albums have seen Archive gradually turn away from their roots in Electronica and Trip hop and towards more psychedelic and progressive style of bands such as Pink Floyd, Mogwai, and The Secret Machines. The band also composed the soundtrack to the French film Michel Vaillant, released in November 2003.
Archive began their Europe tour in November 2004 without Walker, and without notifying ticket holders. Increasing shouts of 'Where's Craig?" from bemused fans at the concerts in Poland and France finally prompted a notice on the website that Craig absence was "due to unforeseen circumstances". Another statement from Darius Keeler hinted at personal problems keeping Walker from touring [1]. In an interview with the TV station arte in late 2005 [2], Keeler and Griffiths stated that Walker is in fact no longer with Archive and is working on a solo album, whereas Walker has stated that he left Archive due to personal differences with management and other band members.
In autumn of 2004, Archive announced that Dave Pen (Birdpen) would replace Walker on the Noise tour - due to the continuing personal problems between Walker and the rest of the band. During this same tour, Keeler and Griffiths met the singer Pollard Berrier at one of their shows in Vienna, Austria. The three began writing and rehearsing together, and were recording in Southside Studios, London, by September 2005.
In May 2006, Archive released "Lights", from which the first single was "System". Dave Pen contributed on three tracks of the album and Maria Q sang on four tracks.
They have been touring in Europe since 2006, with Dave Pen, Pollard Berrier and occasionally Maria Q as singers. As the critical reaction to their "Lights" tour has been excellent, they recorded a live DVD in Paris in January 2007.
Archive released their 6th album "Controlling Crowds" on March 30th 2009. The first single was entitled "Bullets".
As of February 2009, Rosko John is "back in the Archive collective", according to the official Archive newsletter.

I'm disappointed they abandoned this type of music after their first album. One of the best trip-hop albums ever released.
Fully agree
Fully agreed. Do u have other album artist same style please ? Thanks !
@@Roreaver You can try:
Bowery Electric's album Lushlife: ua-cam.com/video/TqUK7iAQJ4k/v-deo.html
Blush by Bows: ua-cam.com/video/XT9mLWWvu0E/v-deo.html
Bloom by Crustation: ua-cam.com/video/yKNJCVruRLc/v-deo.html
Go On by a.s.o.: ua-cam.com/video/Z9rNKIbvrBw/v-deo.html
Vinculum by Sunday Munich: ua-cam.com/video/mSEi2n2Cxko/v-deo.html
Can also look at Rosko John's solo album (the male singer / rapper on Londinium) He did a few collaborations with Roya Arab (female singer on Londinium.) ua-cam.com/video/WIKeEN-IhWE/v-deo.html
His production is quite a bit different from his Londinium days so temper your expectations.
Hope you find something you like.
@@Roreaverportishead, massive attack
@@hoomanhosseini8299 yes but less known … thanks but these ones are obvious :) ahaha ^^
In 1997 must have listened to this album a couple of hundred times in a row... never got bored...
''One of the best trip-hop songs from one of the best trip-hop album ever.'' !!
One of the greatest song ever.
Exactement elle est parfaite cette chanson , je pense aussi que c'est la meilleur d'archive , c'est trop envoûtant , ça fais planer , j'adore .
best Archive cd for me... beautiful Londinium !!!!!!
one of the most important tracks of my life ...
I love the way she moves her hands...!!!
My Angel! Clipped wings, I know.
Wanders in darkness, on grimy ground.
In a forest, unclean, unsound.
Everything, everything's gone wild.
Make land for the cows to graze,
leaflets scatter around to advertise.
Sellout
A swamp, in it hands streched out
to catch a passing dime.
Donations to the rich,
widened opavements for the poor,
somewhere else to lie.
But my friend the carriage door
stands slightly ajar,
and I know clipped wings make uneasy flight,
but we've gotta reach!
A place where the feast never ends,
when the music celebrates.
In a time when darkness belongs
to night's skies and
nothing else.
Tomorrow my spirit's seen,
fears today my mind,
soul aches to deep,
always craves my body to reach
A place where the feast never ends
a moment when the music celebrates
and a time where darkness belongs to night's skies and
nothing else!
Thanks to the Player One VHS (kind of a playstation magazine back in the 90s) for making me discovering Archive and trip-hop as a whole when I used to be a child. This song opened my mind to new possibilities at the time.
OOOOh yes. This song was stuck in my mind for years, and of course, i didn't knew the name years after when i was like "okay, what was this song i loved ?". Took me nearly 10 years to find it. And i was listening to some Archive, but the band was so different after that album, i didn't know...
With Final Fantasy 7 pictures, i remember so well :)
One of the most-underated trip-hop band of the 1990s.
Not underated at all... Do you know the meaning of this word ?
♥ No way, they are loved and appreciated by thousands, concerts are always crowded and gorgeous! ♥
Trip hop has always been the perfect blend and musical revelation for me
Fam , I’ve only known the new version and video of this song and have had no idea about the older version and album!!!!🔥🔥
Thank you for posting and putting me on to this entire album!!!
Appreciation from El Paso Texas USA

❤️❤️❤️
A pure diamond!
phenomenal song.
Reminds me of old Portishead
Beautiful song!
All this album is shattering me to tears for all over almost 20 years. Brilliant.
Just found this
band..did they exist for 20 years ...wow!!
Mw too . . .
énorme comme quoi la musique fais belle et bien planer :)
Just my opinion, Londinium was the greatest work of Archive
Yes they should never have splitted up with their Singer Roya Arab.
BANGER!@!!!!!!!
new version is beautiful, but this one is even more...
For sure!
That beat drop 🔥
Sounds like something from Silent Hill 2.
This brings me back....smoking pot and driving all night down Australian highways at age 20....oh god best times of my life....
agree! Deja mort.... ya des films comme ca quon oublie jamais.
haven't heard a music that would give me sensations like this one in a while...amazing...
Libera's Time gives off the same vibe as this song for some reason imo
One of the best song of the album
Best trip hop album ever
Best album ever.
This album is really astonishing!
Im stun._.For ever.
je plane toujours autant quand je réécoute cette chanson! elle est juste magnifique!!!!
carrément
ouaiiiiiiiiiiis!!! ouais!ouais!ouaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis!!!!
Astonishing visual style predecessor of Chrysta Bell - Bird of Flames
oh i was thinking was Cascadeur singing but no it is archive incridible
this album is GOLD!
You're so right...
Agreed
What a voice. Too bad she only sang on one Archive album.
If it makes you feel better she sung with Archive's rapper Rosko John (the guy who was doing the rapping in this song's album) in some 2012 and 2014 Trip Hop songs as Rosko also does music on his own and not just with Archive. Their songs definitely have some Archive feel check out Tactical Light and Call to Arms: "March Forth" if you love the Londinium album.
Thanks for this info. I have wondered what they've been up to for many years.
Oh yeah I forgot, Roya Arab also song on some of her sister's songs Leila Arab who is also a pretty great trip hop and IDM producer.
Here is another song featuring Roya : ua-cam.com/video/VSjiKPomb4Q/v-deo.html
Would you kindly add Roya Arab in the search/tag to make it easier for her fans to access this video (as there have been a number of versions since); furthermore she’s a co-writer of this track and should be cited.
I KNEW there was a reason I liked the instrumental of BrokeNCYDE’s “I’m Sorry” so much! Now I don’t have to listen to Se7en’s screeching anymore!
This sounds like a band called babyfox, album is called dum dum baby
Into the arms of Angels Jedi mind tricks
Ecouter cette chanson les yeux fermés et puis planer, planer loin, on se sent léger, on oublie le reste du monde
Bo de déjà mort ...the film.
This has aged beautifully ✨
sounds to me like the son of massive attack and telepopmusik
If I didn't know any better I would say the woman in this video is a trained mime...
such a delicate harmony tying the lyrics, the singing and the music altogether.
great song really
Why isnt this damn album on Google Music?!?!
Cause it's good music
Some of the music-artists greats of Triphop will, in the fullness of time, be thought of as the greatest of this age. Of ANY genres.
Thanks Jedi mind tricks for bringing me here
It's fucking amazing.
It's both sad and uplifting
She is coming back soon on the road again !
Yes, it's from the motion picture: "Dejà mort" ( Already Dead in english ).

Походу больше слышит из моих песен 🔥
🤍
quel et le film derrière ?
Deja mort
Spécialement pour toi mon amour 😍 my Angel
Jam!
@silentshout655321 Archive is more of a sound collective than a band. The most amazing thing about them is how each album is different that the rest.
Maybe if you give their music a chance instead of searching for a conformed sound, you'll like their music.
Try listening to Sham, Lights and Again.
Quiet sensation...
Players d or 97 video
Oui magnifque
she is persian
@yannick0026 "déja mort"

Tellement parfaite.... *****
