"Green Nights Orange Days" delivers the result of Montreal producer Naw's (aka Neil Wiernik) last 10 years of experience writing music as an insturmental force in the Canadian electronic, techno, experimental and ambient music scene. The sound is as sparse, clean, and expansive as a frozen lake, defined by mellow, often persistent, ambient-trance beats, subtle glitches and clicks, soft, synth pads, and movements of sound that weave so slowly between each other you may only realize it on a subconscious level.

This is the kind of album you put on repeat so you can melt away for hours as its warm repetition washes all your thoughts away. It reminds me very specifically of the album "Las Vegas" by Burger/Ink. If you were into that one, you'll have the same feelings about Green Nights Orange Days.

Neil Wiernik (aka NAW) has been an instrumental force in the Candadian electronic, techno, experimental and ambient music scene for the past 10 years. "Green Nights Orange Days" is NAW's second release on Noise Factory Records.
Montreal native Neil Wiernik began his explorations in electronic music-making as early as 1988. Known to push the boundaries of his musical form from designing new or manipulating existing sound making devices and software to creative uses of production environments and sound sources, NAW's music is a blend of sound manipulation/design, experimental music and dub-tech rhythms, which on the surface sound quite simple, but incorporate a number of touches that steer this artist away from being simply another minimal techno or experimental laptop artist.
He combines post-house, dubby minimal techno, micro-sound and thick ambience, to create his own version of deep techno, house and other electronic laptop orientated music.
Neil has released music on various national and international record labels, including releases on Noise Factory, Worthy, Clevermusic, Complot, Piehead, A/S Systems, Wabi and Future Rhetoric.
As NAW, Neil has performed extensively along side a variety of national and international artists both in and outside of Canada.
