Like a few of his City Centre Offices labelmates, Berlin's Hanno Leichtmann (aka Static) creates warm, deceptively melodic tracks countered by glitchy elements. For Eject Your Mind, an album released in early 2002, Leichtmann sought the services of Ronald Lippok, of Tarwater and To Roccoco Rot fame, and Justine Electra, a vocalist who contributed her talents to Tarwater's Animals, Suns, and Atoms. Prior to the album's release, Leichtmann had released singles for the labels audio.nl and Mermaid (the latter imprint is part of Jazzanova's Sonar Kollektiv stable). Also, as a teaser for Eject Your Mind, CCO issued the Headphones 7", which significantly built anticipation for the following full-length.
