Archetype conjures many facets of the modern London scene: garage, jazz (of course it's a JAJ album), soul, hip-hop, dub, and drill really pins down The Futur(istic) Sound of London. I bet it works better live than listening while sitting on one's ass though: despite the luxurious productions, the tunes didn't fully leverage their repetitiveness into the nocturnal trance state they were aiming for.
