ECM Records, also known as "The Creative Label," is a German independent label that was co-founded by producer Manfred Eicher, Manfred Scheffner, and Karl Egger in Munich (Pasing) in 1969. With the label code LC 2516 / LC 02516, ECM stands for Edition of Contemporary Music and focuses on jazz and Western classical music. They showcase both acoustic and electronic artists who produce eclectic versions of contemporary music.

ECM's extensive catalog features a wide range of genres, from contemporary works by renowned composers like Steve Reich, Arvo Pärt, and Philip Glass to experimental and electronic jazz from artists such as Nils Petter Molvær, Pat Metheny Group, and Jan Garbarek. Over the past 40+ years, ECM has released more than 1500 recordings that have been acclaimed for their exceptional music quality, creative production techniques, and outstanding sound.

Although an independent label, ECM titles are distributed by Universal Music Group (UMG) in the US, Japan, and throughout Europe. However, they have also collaborated with other distributors over the years. Notably during the period when Polydor distributed ECM products in Germany; [l447694] was used for pressing identified by a CP suffix on labels and runouts. Afterward,[l25946] became their primary distributor.

Mathias Eick, born on June 26, 1979, is a Norwegian jazz musician known for his exceptional talent on the trumpet. However, his musical abilities extend beyond just one instrument as he also plays the double bass, vibraphone, piano, and guitar. Eick has had the privilege of performing alongside renowned music groups and musicians such as Jaga Jazzist, Chick Corea, and Pat Metheny. He is also a valued member of Thomas Dybdahl's backing band - The Great October Sound.

Eick's unique sound and versatility have earned him comparisons to other notable artists in the jazz genre. Some similar artists include Ketil Bjørnstad, Bobo Stenson Trio, Jon Balke, Arild Andersen, Trygve Seim, Misha Alperin,Nils Petter Molvær,and Helge Lien Trio among others.

With an impressive repertoire and collaborations with esteemed musicians throughout his career,Eick continues to captivate audiences with his extraordinary talent and passion for jazz music.

Norwegian trumpeter Mathias Eick's expressive playing, which according to the New York Times radiates a "pristine yet penetrating tone", is remarkably well complemented in the company of his gifted supporting players and fellow travelers. Violinist Hakon Aase, one of the outstanding improvisers of his generation, shadows the leader with lines that reflect a profound background in folk as well as jazz. Drummers Helge Andeas Norbakken and Torstein Lofthus mirror their exchanges, as they interact with purring precision. Near the centre of the action, pianist Andras Ulvo and bass guitarist Audun Erlien ferry ideas between frontline and rhythm section and make statements of their own. On several tracks, the delicate swell of Stian Carstensen's pedal steel guitar adds a dimension of mystery. When we leave was recorded at Oslo's Rainbow Studio in August 2020.
