Nia Archives returns with Emotional Junglist, an album about love but not just the shimmering romantic parts. Written throughout 2025 a year that saw Nia fall in, and horrifically back out of, love each track will encompass something of the experience. Marking her biggest sonic leap to date, her alt-jungle sound honed alongside James Ford, Ethan P. Flynn and Julia Michaels, will see her flirt with everything from dewy-eyed indie pop and nineties electronica, underscored by the syncopated beats and thudding basslines of her jungle roots with a tracklist that features Jorja Smith and Sampha. The motif for the album is a shell tough on the outside, but through pressure, maturation and resilience, something precious is built within. Nodding to the female form, the spiral chamber also symbolizes growth and self-development.
