Wolfsheim are a synthpop duo from Hamburg, Germany consisting of Markus Reinhardt (music) and Peter Heppner (lyrics and vocals). The band was founded in 1987 by Markus Reinhardt and Pompejo Ricciardi and was named after Meyer Wolfsheim, a fictional character from F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel ‘The Great Gatsby’.  Ricciardi soon left the band and was replaced by Peter Heppner, a childhood friend of Reinhardt's. Together they produced their first demo tape, “Ken Manage”, in 1988.

After making a second demo tape, “Any But Pretty”, in 1989, Wolfsheim applied at various labels until they caught the attention of independent record label Strange Ways Records. They are best known for their debut breakthrough single, "The Sparrows and the Nightingales”, the first single to be released on Strange Ways in 1991. The band's musical style takes cues from the 1980s New Romantics, new wave, synthpop, and darkwave. The track's sombre synths were produced by Carlos Peron of Yello. Reinhardt says the lyric was inspired by ‘The Great Gatsby’, "in the 'onomatopoeic tension' between predator and security."  Over six minutes, the narrator describes being lost, unsure of where his life is heading, using highly metaphorical language. On the flip is a brand new remix by German producer Ancient Methods, a pseudonym of Michael ‘Trias’ Wollenhaupt, who provides a driving, EBM-leaning, amphetamine-laced club ready cut.

All songs have been remastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. Designer Eloise Leigh has updated the record's original design with two sparrows
enclosed in a blood moon circle against a deep black purple backdrop. Each copy comes with a black and white photo postcard notes by Carlos Peron and the song's lyrics. This release comes in time to celebrate the single’s 25th anniversary.

The Sparrows And The Nightingales (Ancient Methods 'Ode To The Night' Remix)

Gilles Peterson-endorsed Bristolian, Typesun, makes his next chess move following on from a queue of primo productions over the last few years. "The PL", which featured the softly softly croons of an anonymous vocalist, was an undisputed 2013 jewel. "Water Song" was a swaddling pool of Latin loveliness; so good we had to take a dive ourselves. Now he's recruited MOBO-award winning jazz quartet Empirical’s Lewis Wright (vibraphone) and top guitar session player Miles James alongside a group of Bristol’s finest musicians for "Make It Right". Infused with smoke-tinted funk and pinned down by Typesun’s finely-honed production chops, it's the ideal mid-night foot-shifter. 

Ready your shuffle for the February 5 release date via Don't Be Afraid.

A1. OLD MADE NEW
A2. NOVEMBER
B1. CATCH YOU 
B2. ED'S SONG

Eric Ericksson is back with his fourth release on Swedish Brandy Productions. A stunning hot deep four tracker. Excellent quality productions in every aspect that differs a bit in style. The a- side starts of with the track “Old Made New”. A spirited house gem packed with bouncing bass, shuffled grooves, filtered pads and smart synth hooks punching in and out. 

Next up is the techy afro house inspired cut “November” with it's sturdy and hypnotic groove. Vigorous dubby chords, stabs and percussion combined with energetic and dramatic strings.

The flip side starts of with the chilled and elegant “Catch You”. Deep and crisp sounding with great swing and punch, flavoured with visionary and dreamlike soundscapes mixed with a slightly techy vibe that gives this track it's grand feel and golden touch. 

The last track of the EP is the jazzy and soulful title track “Ed's Song”. Bouncing bass line, sweet and groovy Fender Rhodes with a whole lot of 90's hip hop inspired sample wizardry.  

In the past Eric has also released on labels such Fragile, Planet E Communications, Papa Records, Freerange and Local Talk. His full length album will be released this spring on Swedish Brandy Productions.

LR089 Benedek - Coolin' - EP
ltd cassette + digital EP now available:
www.leavingrecords.com

Nicky Benedek was born and bred to funk in the City of Angels. He spent his early creative energy observing and integrating outsider dance and funk scenes in underground music culture into his own breed of production for his first full-length on the influential PPU label. His compositions carry the torch of funk into the wondrous and nebulous territories of house, boogie, hip-hop, jazz-fusion, and experimental new age. With an arsenal of analog synthesizers, drum machines, and electric guitars, he’s making moves in the L.A. underground by welcomed way of Funkmosphere, Dublab, and Leaving Records community with a strong strut.
