Archive

Archive are a South London-based musical collective renowned for their cinematic soundscapes, genre-defying evolution, and uncompromising artistic vision. Formed in 1994 by Darius Keeler and Danny Griffiths - former members of pioneering drum & bass group Genaside II—the band debuted with the critically acclaimed Londinium in 1996, blending trip-hop, rap, and orchestral textures. Over the next two decades, Archive became known for reinventing their sound with each album, incorporating elements of progressive rock, electronica, soul, and post-rock.
