Night Fiction is Cian Nugent's third album but his first taking on the role of singer-songwriter. Where his previous two albums: 2013's Born With The Caul and 2011's Doubles saw him exploring extended guitar based instrumentals with his band, The Cosmos, here he has reigned things in and focused his songwriting skills. Guitar fans, do not fear, there is still plenty of soloing and fingerpicking here. With 7 songs both solo and with his band, this album amalgamates everything Cian has done up to this point and reveals a more broad palate of influences, including The Velvet Underground, Richard Thompson, Television, Neil Young, John Lennon, Fred Neil, etc.

Recorded over a week beginning on Valentine's Day 2014, Night Fiction was recorded in Bow Lane Studios in Dublin with Daniel Fox (Girl Band) and mixed by Brendan Jenkinson. The album's seven songs include solo ventures as well as full-band recordings feat. David Lacey on drums, Conor Lumsden on bass, Brendan Jenkinson on organ and piano and Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh on viola. The vibe here is familiar yet refreshing and a logical progression for Cian.

"I've always been impressed and inspired by Cian's guitar playing; now on this album he brings his voice and stories to only expand that brilliance" - Steve Gunn

unknown な誰かの心象風景を建築するアンビエント・ユニット 始動 ！

「ワーカホリックな慌ただしい平日をどうにかくぐり抜け、ようやくたどり着いた日曜日。のんびりとリラックスしながら気ままに休日を過ごす彼の心には、時間の経過とともにいつしか“void= 空虚感” が漂い始めていた…。」

まるで窓から差し込む日光のような、浮遊感のあるやわらかい音像と丸みを帯びたリズム。日が傾くにつれて、それらが重なり溶け合ってまどろみへと誘う。夜が深まり徐々に立ち現れる、スペイシーなトリップ感を帯びたアンビエンス。“誰も知らない誰か” の休日の過ごし方にフォーカスし、起床～就寝までの時間の移ろいを軸として展開する、ウォーミーでリラクシンな30 分。
DJ、ラッパー、トラックメイカー、執筆家として様々なシーンを縦横無尽に横断し独自の活動を続けるやけのはら。DJ 活動と並行してレーベルradloop を主宰、7inch 作品のリリースを重ねるP-RUFF。Entertainment Systems、Where To Now? Recordings 等、海外レーベルからもカセット作品をリリースするアンビエント作家H. TAKAHASHI 。
3 人がそれぞれ持つバックグラウンドや音の個性が絶妙に交わることで、奇跡的に生み出されたアンビエント•カセットが、やけのはらのレーベル“NOPPARA TAPES” のリリース第一弾として少量限定リリース！
