The two women perform and dance to the track in the music video for \u201cGet Down,\u201d directed by Archives and her close friend and collaborator Jay Douglas.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of the collaboration, Smith shares: \u201cI loved working with Nia in the studio; it was so inspiring watching her work. Find plug ins, mess around with my vocal. I\u2019m such a fan of hers!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Archives adds: \u201cVery gassed to have worked with Jorja on this album, my first ever feature!! Feels like a full circle moment since I did the little things remix in 2023. Working with Jorja is so seamless and we had a lot of fun in the studio \u2013 this is one of my favourite tracks on the album.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Emotional Junglist was written through 2025 as Archives fell in and out of love. The album includes the previously released singles \u201cDanger,\u201d \u201cBoys in Blue,\u201d and \u201cVertical.\u201d Collaborators include James Ford (Arctic Monkey\u2019s, Blur), Ethan P. Flynn (FKA Twigs, David Byrne), and Julia Michaels (Lady Gaga, Sabrina Carpenter). Another key collaboration comes from Sampha, who appears on \u201cTender,\u201d which Archives has described as one of the album\u2019s most vulnerable songs. The album marks Archives\u2019 biggest sonic leap yet, blending her alt-jungle sound with indie pop and nineties electronica.\n<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this summer, Archives debuted her live show across a series of sold-out intimate dates in Leeds, London, and New York. This Summer, Nia Archives will perform All Points East alongside Jorja Smith and Tems. Archives is currently on a 6-date b2b tour across the UK.\n<\/p>\n<p>Emotional Junglist follows Silence Is Loud, her 2024 debut album, which became the first jungle album in 20 years to receive a Mercury Prize nomination.\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/niaarchives.lnk.to\/EmotionalJunglist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><b>Listen to Nia Archives\u2019 \u201cGet Me Down\u201d here.<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nia Archives has teamed up with Jorja Smith for a new track. \u201cGet Down\u201d is the latest single&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":583972,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[264],"tags":[74232,18,36471,248123,117,248124,19,17,337,67239],"class_list":["post-583971","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-dj","tag-eire","tag-electronic","tag-emotional-junglist","tag-entertainment","tag-get-me-down","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-music","tag-nia-archives"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/116914622604620648","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/583971","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=583971"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/583971\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/583972"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=583971"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=583971"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=583971"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
