Peter Heppner (born 1967 in Hamburg) was the lead singer for the German electronica/synth pop band Wolfsheim, and has collaborated with many other electronic music acts, such as Paul van Dyk, Schiller, and Goethes Erben. Although he had been active in Wolfsheim since 1987, his first commercial success was in 1991 releasing the single "The Sparrows and the Nightingales". In 1998 he had a big charts success with NDW star Joachim Witt and their duet "Die Flut". In the years following, his notability as a singer increased. Collaborating with the Schiller, he achieved international chart hits with "Dream of You" and "Leben... I Feel You" in 2004. In the same year, he released the song "Wir sind wir" with Paul van Dyk. Although the song was controversial because of its message, the artists recorded another version together with the Filmorchester Babelsberg for the Day of German Unity on October 3, 2005 in Potsdam. A more recent project with Mila Mar and Kim Sanders formerly of Culture Beat spawned the single "Aus Gold", intended to support Afghan poorhouses in conjunction with the Deutsches Rotes Kreuz.

  • Nonostante faccia parte del progetto Wolfsheim dal 1987, il successo commerciale è arrivato solo nel 1991 con il singolo The sparrows and the nightingales. Nel 1998 ha avuto un grande successo con il singolo "Die Flut", realizzato in collaborazione con Joachim Witt, grande star degli anni '80. Negli anni seguenti la sua notorietà è aumentata notevolmente, soprattutto in seguito alla collaborazione con Christopher von Deylen del progetto musicale Schiller. Da questa collaborazione nel 2004 sono nate due canzoni ("Dream of you" e "Leben... I feel you") che hanno letteralmente scalato le classifiche europee e d'Oltreoceano. Nello stesso anno ha realizzato la canzone Wir sind wir con il DJ tedesco Paul van Dyk. (it)
