Night Noise Team are set to release their latest EP, Pieces, on June 11th 2012 via Permwhale Recordings.

Pieces displays the band’s multitude of influences – ranging from Serge Gainsbourg to The Smiths to Phoenix – with repetitive catchy, electronic beats that wouldn’t be out of place on a Daft Punk record. Meanwhile, their melodic, harmonised pop-laden vocals are backed up by funky synths, which would make even the likes of Earth, Wind and Fire proud! There is a sense of freshness, guile and clever detail in the bands songwriting that develops subtly throughout the EP, meaning the listener is exposed to something new every time they press the play button.

Active since 2007, Edinburgh based Night Noise Team are the product of Frenchman Fabien Pinardon (bass) and Irishman Sean Ormsby (guitar / vox). The duo write, record, produce, arrange and mix their music themselves, but when performed live, Night Noise Team become a whole different beast altogether with the addition of live members: Marco Morelli (guitar), Stephen McLaren (Keyboards and vox) and Keith Kirkwood (drums). The band has built a catalogue of work consisting of two albums and three singles while their music has been heralded by the likes of The Scotsman, The List and The Skinny as well as gaining support from BBC Radio 1 Scotland having played a session for Ally McCrae.

With the release of Pieces, Night Noise Team have produced a catchy, upbeat and eclectic sound that transcends various genres – a record that you will want to play over and over again.
