about

Leaving Laurel and Anjunadeep warmly welcome Daniel Avery for his label debut with his remix of Leaving Laurel’s ‘Winter In The Woods’. Championed by the likes of Four Tet, Bonobo, London Grammar, TEED, Dominik Eulberg, Denis Sulta, and George Fitgerald, Avery has become synonymous with considered techno and ambient works, often garnering coverage in Resident Advisor, Pitchfork, and Mixmag.

The first single off Leaving Laurel’s debut self-titled LP, 'Winter In The Woods' was written during a transitional period for the band as they departed from Laurel Canyon to their respective homes in the north. Avery builds on the warm introspectiveness of the original, bending and twisting the melodies until they’re reminiscent of old home video tapes, and then layering his characteristically cavernous drums and percussion to create an all-enveloping soundscape.

For Pierce and Gordon of Leaving Laurel, their music is a story of an old friendship that over many years, almost accidentally, blossomed into a musical collaboration. Friends on the internet first, and eventually roommates in Los Angeles, the pair spent years together making their own separate brands of dance music, long before ever collaborating with one another. Gordon was one half of bass heavy duo Botnek, whilst Pierce found fame and toured the world with his solo project.

Pierce always envisioned the music they made together in California as an album, and after having released many of their early songs over the past year on Anjunadeep, they set out to finish everything they had started during that time. In revisiting the rest of their ideas from that era, they had realised - it all felt like one moment in time. One feeling. One chapter.

Pierce passed away in April of this year after a tragic struggle with his mental health. This album is dedicated to his memory, and has come to represent much more than two friends making music together in the Laurel Canyon neighbourhood of Los Angeles.
