Often duplicated, never imitated: the power of Lauer! Albeit being no stranger himself to musical influences from the outside, the producer from Frankfurt managed to carve out a sound that is very much his own. Indie-dance, Italo, power pop, and house music in its traditional sense get mixed up in a blender of happiness, Lauer's latest achievement for Running Back and welcome return is a mini-LP called Cyclone Days. Aptly titled and ably executed, it's everything you would expect or want from him. A world of merry music, where melody is king. On top of that, you get value for your money: Vocal blockbusters like the upbeat "Somebody" (instrumental included) and the more restrained "Friends" (both with frequent collaborator Dena), sit comfortably between instrumental hits. "Resonator" and "Neway" take the role of the proverbial keys to happiness, while the title track or "Exterminate" balance it out with joyful melancholy. Just imagine Righeira signing to Factory Records or Durutti Column on holidays in Rimini and you are halfway there. The days might be like a cyclone, but as long as there are records like this, the shelter isn't blown.
