P1/E (Schäumer, Hacke, Hirsch, Droste, Franke with guest vocalist Voburka) were an early 80s outfit and one of the first bands to release an indie single in their hometown  Berlin. „49 Second Romance“ was released in January 1980, followed by tracks on the Monogam Compilation and the 1981 „Licht & Schatten“ Album.

After the split Alex Hacke aka Borsig moved to Einstürzende Neubauten and Crime And The City Solution. But that deserves a soundcloud page of its own. Schäumer went to Tennis Boy Blues and made some tracks in the early Acid House stages in 1989.

„49 Second Romance“, still gets rereleases on compilations over and over again. The latest are the 2016 Powell Remix  on The Vinyl Factory or the 2015 Mark Reeder Reconstruction which was used in the B-Movie documentary about the Berlin scene in the 80s.

In 2020 P1/E are back, located in Aswan / Egypt and Berlin, to release new music.

Wild Youth Digital is a Berlin based Label. Wild Youth first started in 1981 und was reactivated during the 2020 lockdown.
