ENIGMA
RECORDS
Enigma Records was a DIY label. It managed at least
two singles. It issued singles in an PSS-100 numerical series. The Label
set-up by band Joy Division to release their first single. When Joy Division
discovered that there already was another label called Enigma, they changed it
to Anonymous Records, Enigma first-ever record was by Joy Division, their
'Ideal For Living' EP (PSS-139; 1978). Recording was by Pennine Sound
Studios, and the EP was numbered in the studio's own series. Warsaw was the name
used by Joy Division for their early performances and during the recording
sessions for their first 7" EP, "An Ideal For Living". They changed their name
to Joy Division before that record was released, so the only release Inside The
Line (PSS-138; 1977). is a bootlegs of early material released under the
Warsaw name, and several tracks on official Joy Division compilations that are
credited to Warsaw. Joy Division were an English rock band formed
in 1976 in Salford, Greater Manchester. Originally named Warsaw, the
band primarily consisted of Ian Curtis (vocals and occasional
guitar), Bernard Sumner (guitar and keyboards), Peter
Hook (bass guitar and backing vocals) and Stephen Morris(drums and
percussion).
