‘Call To Arms & Angels’ is the title of the twelfth studio album from South London collective Archive. A 17-track double CD / triple LP recorded at RAK studios in London and released on Dangervisit/PIAS. Deluxe editions of the album also include a bonus ‘Super8’ album of new and exclusive instrumentals, as featured in the band’s ‘Super8’ documentary that will accompany the release of the album. Produced by Archive and long-time collaborator Jérome Devoise, ‘Call To Arms & Angels’ is the band’s first studio set since 2016’s ‘The False Foundation’. Talking about the new album, Darius Keeler says, “Writing our twelfth studio album was an extraordinary time for the band. The song writing became an unfolding narrative as the world got stranger and more disturbing every day. With people’s freedoms being pushed to the brink, the suffering Covid caused and the terrible events in the US lead by Trump and the rise of the Right, anything seemed possible. “To reflect on these times as artists brought up a darkness and an anger, but also a strange kind of inspiration that was at times unsettling. It really made us appreciate the power of music and how lucky we are to be able to express our feelings in this way. “It seems there is light at the end of the tunnel, but there are always shadows within that light.”

Temple is proud to present a new full-length album from Polish musician and visual artist Wojciech Bąkowski.Following up on his more experimental-leaning album Jazz Duo on Dunno Recordings, Voyager is an intimate album in the artist’s signature spoken-word style, loosely touching on stripped-down hip hop, RnB, dub, and pop.All records come with a book of the artist’s drawings and song lyrics in Polish and English.Available on Vinyl, digital, and streaming services at the end of April.🍷

A decade after it first surfaced on CD and digital, Kaidi Tatham's superb contribution to Jazz:Refreshed's now legendary 5ive series of mini-albums has finally made it onto vinyl. We don't expect these to hang around in stock too long, in part because it's one of the most consistently on-point and musically expansive sets in Tatham's vast catalogue - and that's saying something. For proof, check the soulful bruk-up business of 'To My Surprise' (reminiscent of the best of the collective Bugz in the Attic project he was a big part of), the fluid, spiritual jazz-funk brilliance of opener 'Don't Hide Your Love' and the expansive, up-tempo excellence of 'Organic Juggernaut', where fluttering flutes, squelchy bass and sparkling pianos catch the ear.
