Try something like this:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(0-9){4}/(0-9){2}/(0-9){2}/(.+?)/?$ /archives/$4/ [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

This entire block should go _before_ whatever rewrite block your CMS/ 
blog has as default.
