Embrya
''Embyra'' is the second studio album by American recording artist Maxwell, released on June 30, 1998, by Columbia Records. As on his 1996 debut album ''Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite'', he collaborated with record producer and Sade collaborator Stuart Matthewman. A neo soul album, ''Embrya'' features heavy basslines, string arrangements, and an emphasis on groove over melodies. It has themes of love and spirituality.
''Embrya'' sold more than one million copies and garnered Maxwell a new alternative fanbase, but confounded urban consumers and was panned by music critics.〔 The album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
== Background ==
With a lesser jazz emphasis than his debut album, ''Embrya'' continues the trend towards heavy basslines and string arrangements, and it focuses on themes such as love and spirituality. However, the album features more of an emphasis on groove than melodies.〔 Its production sound contains bassy, electronic and slight syncopated beats. Maxwell has defined the album's title as "an approaching growing transition thought to be contained but destined for broader perception."〔Harrington, Richard. (Maxwell's `Embrya,' In the Mood for Love ). ''The Washington Post''. Retrieved on 2009-03-30.〕
