Joe Armon-Jones

All The Quiet (Part II)

    Keyboardist, producer and songwriter Joe Armon-Jones shares his most elevated solo project to date, 'All The Quiet'. A galvanising statement of intent, traversing jazz, funk, dub, hip hop, and soul music, entirely written, produced and mixed by Armon-Jones himself. As a band member, he is best known as part of the Mercury prize winning Ezra Collective, who capped 2024 by being the first jazz band to headline London’s Wembley Arena. 'All The Quiet (Part II)' is the second chapter of a two part album, released on his own label, Aquarii Records. Guest musicians & features include Greentea Peng, Wu-Lu, Yazmin Lacey, Hak Baker, Nubya Garcia, Oscar Jerome, and more.

    Six years have passed since Armon-Jones’ last solo album, 2019’s 'Turn To Clear View' was released on Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood Recordings, but don’t mistake that gap for a break. In this time he’s toured the world, built a studio, contributed to albums from the great and good of UK jazz, and recorded collaborative releases with Liam Bailey, Fatima, Hak Baker, Prince Fatty, Ranking Joe, Maxwell Owin, and dubstep legend Mala.

      STAFF COMMENTS

      Barry says: Intricate, finely honed jazz-funk business from Joe Armon-Jones with the bristling 'All The Quiet (Part 1)' sacrificing none of the urgency or experimental aura from his earlier work while introducing a number of elements to take these pieces into smooth, soulful jazz territory.

      Joe Armon-Jones

      Sorrow

        ‘Sorrow’ is the third in the ‘Aquarii In Dub’ series from musician and producer Joe Armon-Jones, written and produced by Joe in his own studio and released on his own label Aquarii Records.

        Lead single ‘Sorrow’ sees him link up with Nottingham’s Liam Bailey for a single evoking the sound of classic Studio 1 recordings from the golden era of Reggae and dub.

        Joe Armon-Jones flexes his versatility by including two additional versions of ‘Sorrow’, one led by Ezra Collective’s James Mollison on sax, and the other lead by himself on keys; both takes reimagine the original track and breathe new life into an already outstanding work.

        As well as Liam Bailey and James Mollison, 'Sorrow' features Black Midi’s Morgan Simpson on drums, Nubiyan Twist bassist Luke Wynter, and Mark Mollison guitarist for Loyle Carner and Celeste.

        Produced and mixed by Joe Armon-Jones, mastered by Noah Priddle, and released via Armon-Jones own imprint Aquarii Records.
