Leifeld, Andreas

This brilliant, yet little-known, German artist has a flair for combining refined ambiences with driving funk bass lines and rock beats. His well-constructed melodies and improvisations are often quite catchy, while his song titles and symbolic sonic imagery are lined with social commentary. Classically trained, Leifeld was a music teacher in Paderborn, Germany, and his modest apartment was overrun with all manner of electronic gadgetry. He was truly a living, breathing example of the cyberpunk mentality -- you get the feeling he would gladly leave earthly concerns behind if he could download the essence of his mind, body, and soul onto a hard disk. He died in 2006.

Andreas Leifeld - Discoveries

Artist: Andreas Leifeld
P: 1991
Futuristic in conception and execution, this album still harkens back to the sequencer-driven sound of the German electronic school. Yet unlike Tangerine Dream, Leifeld has managed to add rock and pop influences without losing his progressive edge. His two-part suite "African Dreams" delves into the techno-tribal realm. He also adds some amusing political cynicism on the final selection, "Same Old Game," by layering recorded voice fragments of George Bush's most banal catchphrases over combat sounds and a brooding, almost sinister electronic score.

Andreas Leifeld - Mysterious Messages

Artist: Andreas Leifeld
P: 1990
These are nice synthesizertracks, first released on Bernd Kistenmachers Musique Intemporelle label way back in 1990. The music shows the different styles and talents of Leifeld on a very versatile CD with tracks, that have a little eastern influence.

Here Leifeld takes the next step into very modern styles. With a lot of reverb, he gets his unique style.
