2017: a year of basement studios and breakthroughs. A distinctly different tone than the somewhat sheen-y texture of Archive01, Archive02 is the jump from what is on the page to what is in the listener's imagination. Pitch manipulation alongside a new approach to drums make this dusty tape stand out as the textures that led to productions later down the road. Electronic sounds alongside home made flips from acoustic in house sampling transform complex rhythms with a chiller vibe than some of the more daring aesthetics journeyed presently.

Blending modern electronica of the 90's and 00's with gypsy jazz (jazz manouche) of the 30's and 40's, Jake Bradford-Sharp's 'SIX' takes you on a journey through time and space leaving you wanting nothing more than to hit play again and keep the party swinging!

The concept of the album is based on the path of discovering the Universe and the eternal search for truth, the complexities of relationships and the desire to go beyond the ordinary. The artists were never comfortable being stuck in one genre. Leaving electro pop as the leading genre, the musicians experimented with the sound. Almost all songs are made using a Korg Electribe analogue synthesizer to get that dark synth sound. Synthetic sounds are perfectly balanced with live bass, guitars and atmospheric vocals. The album consists of ten songs. The opening song is an 80s-inspired synth-pop track, while the others sound more like blends of electro pop, dream pop and alternative.

On 'More Time Than Ever', 4oresight uses deep and smooth synth pads to deliver dark electronic soundscapes energized by Techno-style beats.
