Nia Archive has released a new song, So Tell Me...,
Premiering on BBC Radio 1's Future Sounds with Clara Amfo, the soulful track incorporates melodic piano lines and rolling breakbeats.
The London-based singer-songwriter co-directed the song's accompanying video alongside Dan Emerson, with shooting take place in Bow and Whitechapel in the capital. She commented:
"Directing with Dan was so much fun! There were so many great ideas and so much positive energy on set. When I sent him my initial moodboard and treatment of what I wanted to create, it was really important to me from the jump to be casting POC main characters in this story – as this is something we don’t usually get to see in this kind of music.
"We also ended up casting non actors to get a more natural chemistry – it’s a real couple who live together in real life and their friends too! We aimed to push the boundaries of what a jungle video actually looks like, and I feel like we did just that – making a punky jungle video that references some of my favourite music videos ever including Massive Attack Unfinished Symphony and Arctic Monkeys When The Sun Goes Down."
It follows Baianá, which was released in September, and news of her Up Ya Archives series, which comprises three UK shows, taking place on November 30 at The White Hotel in Manchester, and on December 2 and 3 at London's Unit 58.
