{"product_id":"londinium","title":"Londinium","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1994 the South London collective Archive was formed by Darius Keeler and Danny Griffiths together with female singer Roya Arab and young rapper Rosko John. Unfortunately, a few months later, they broke up, however Darius and Danny regrouped and continued releasing more Archive albums. Their 1996 debut album Londinium features a very strong mix of trip-hop, electronica, string arrangements, and female vocals from Roya Arab. Rosko John’s tough-spoken words are very similar to Tricky, Future Sound Of London and Massive Attack. The original 1996 issue only came out as a limited edition advance release, and has steadily built in reputation as a rare and expensive record to get a hold of. Fun fact: the song “Londinium” was featured on the Playstation 1 demo-disc and the music video was directed by Matt Cook.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis 25th Anniversary Edition of Londinium by Archive features the singles “So Few Words”, “Londinium” and more. It is packed in a gatefold sleeve, and includes a 4-page booklet with song lyrics and credits, plus a hidden track, which begins about 39 seconds after the end of \"Last Five\"; it runs 1:24, while the actual song \"Last Five\" runs 3:47. This was on the original album, and is included on this re-issue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Music On Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50411559256395,"sku":"1111679","price":42.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/746cc04a-37a4-4449-8669-9d4bbedd3a14_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726659933","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/londinium","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
