Label: Nyahh Records
極上のトラディショナルソング集!!当店ではNatalia Beylisの諸作を中心に紹介している、アイルランドより面白い視点の実験録音を発信し続けるレーベルNyahh Records。アメリカを中心とした民俗音楽の録音収集・映像記録・研究家として有名なアラン・ローマックスの活動にインスパイアされ制作したという、アイルランド全土のトラディショナルソングを集めた珠玉のV.Aを発表!!13世紀以来、国中のパブや民家で行われている歌唱は現在も若い世代に受け継がれており、本作に収録の音源は一部楽曲を除き、なんと歌い手本人が携帯電話で録音したというもの。そのテクスチャーがよりプリミティブなイメージを強くしています。

Nyahh Records is proud and excited to announce this compilation of singers, which has been on the back boiler for some time!! Inspired by the song collecting of Alan Lomax, this compilation brings together two generations of singers from all across the island of Ireland. Some of the songs previously appear on albums, but the rest were recorded by the singer themselves on their phones to give the song a real and raw effect that brings an authentic feel and immediacy to the songs. A long standing tradition in Irish culture, singing has taken place in pubs and private homes all over the country since the 13th Century and has been away to share and keep the music alive, passing it down to younger generations. It is considered to be an aural tradition, as a lot of these songs would of not been written down. Nyahh is honoured to be able to present this collection of songs to you from some of Ireland’s best singers.
