Joe Armon-Jones and Maxwell Owin Release Collaborative LP 'Archetype'

https://hypebeast.com/tags/joe-armon-jones" rel="nofollow - Joe Armon-Jones  and  https://www.instagram.com/maxwell_owin/" rel="nofollow - Maxwell Owin  are key figures in London’s thriving underground music scenes, and they’ve joined forces to create Archetype, a project that fuses their wide variety of sonic influences and is the culmination of more than half a decade of collaborative work. “After six to seven years of putting our everything into this project, [it's] a blessing to see it out in the world,” Armon-Jones said in a recent  https://www.instagram.com/p/CtRDV5wq_sC/" rel="nofollow - Instagram post .

Archetype offers a fusion of everything from hip-hop and jazz to dub, garage and grime. It’s intense and rhythmic with plenty of grooves and driving bass, a hybrid sound that could only come out of a cultural and musical melting pot like London. The vibe of the 12 tracks across the project are reflective of its two creators’ musical backgrounds: Armon-Jones is a producer, composer and keyboardist who’s a founding member of  https://hypebeast.com/tags/ezra-collective" rel="nofollow - Ezra Collective  and has a wide body of solo work to his name as well — his last solo project, Turn to Clear View was named one of TIME‘s top 10 albums of 2019, while Owin has worked extensively with London MC Pinty and a host of other UK artists.

The record also features a wide list of contributors, from saxophonist Shabaka Hutchings to UK dubstep pioneer Mala and O the ghost. “It’s the soulfulness you’re trying to pin down,” Owin said of the project in an interview with  https://www.clashmusic.com/news/joe-armon-jones-maxwell-owin-launch-new-lp-archetype/" rel="nofollow - Stream Archetype below, and cop it in vinyl form on Armon-Jones’  https://joearmonjones.com/release/381624-joe-armon-jones-maxwell-owin-archetype" rel="nofollow - webstore .
