「Dancing After 1AM」は現代における日本のポストパンク、ニューウェーブを代表する一連のアーティストを集めた新しいコンピレーションアルバム。

"Dancing After 1AM" is a new compilation album bringing together a range of the the finest exponents of contemporary Japanese postpunk and new wave.

リズムで半狂乱に襲いかかるThe Morningsや、壊れやすくミニマリストなポストパンクバンドExtruders。そして60'sガールガレージパンクグループPuffyshoes、ヘビーかつサイケノイズを奏でる経立etc。このコンピには、昔ながらのアートロッカーズの心までもわし掴みにするような、止まることないクリエイティブエナジーが注ぎ込まれている。
2012年における日本のオルタナティブシーンの広範囲なポートレートが今ここに集結！

From the frantic rhythmical assault of The Mornings, through the fragile, minimalist postpunk of Extruders and the 60s girl-group garage punk of Puffyshoes, to the heavy, psychedelic noise of Futtachi, the album covers a range of sounds, all linked by a restless, creative energy that captures the spirit of the classic art-rockers of the past while providing a wide ranging portrait of the state of the Japanese alternative scene in 2012.
