Dehaney Nia Lishahn Hunt, known professionally as Nia Archives, is an English record producer, DJ, singer, and songwriter born in September 1999 in Bradford, West Yorkshire. She moved to Leeds at age seven and left her family home at sixteen. Later, she relocated to Greater Manchester, where she was inspired by jungle documentaries and their female participants. After experiencing difficulties with local producers, she began producing her own jungle and drum and bass tracks. Following her move to Hackney Wick for university and facing challenges in securing record label releases, she self-released her music, gaining recognition with the EPs Headz Gone West and Forbidden Feelingz. In 2023, she released her third EP, Sunrise Bang Ur Head Against the Wall, which topped the UK Dance Albums Chart. Her debut album, Silence Is Loud, reached number 16 on the UK Albums Chart. Hunt is considered a prominent figure in the post-2020 drum and bass revival and has been cited as an influence by artist Piri.
