Running Back

American and Nashville-based pianist, keyboardist, composer, and producer. Lauer is a versatile artist who has made a name for himself in the music industry with his unique blend of electronic and disco sounds. With influences ranging from *Pional* to *Johannes Albert*, he creates captivating melodies that transport listeners to another world.
Known for his exceptional talent on the piano and keyboards, Lauer's compositions are rich in texture and emotion. His ability to seamlessly combine different genres sets him apart from other artists in the industry. Drawing inspiration from *Mano Le Tough* and *Massimiliano Pagliara*, Lauer's music is both dynamic and introspective.
As a producer, Lauer has worked with renowned artists such as *Fantastic Man* and *Fort Romeau*. His collaborations have resulted in critically acclaimed tracks that have gained popularity among fans worldwide. With an impressive discography that includes releases on labels like Permanent Vacation and Running Back, Lauer continues to push boundaries with his innovative sound.

Running Back is a German House & Techno record label that was founded by Gerd Janson and Thorsten Scheu. It is now solely run by Gerd Janson. Also known as Running Back Records, this label has become synonymous with quality electronic music.

With a focus on House and Techno genres, Running Back has consistently released music from some of the most talented artists in the industry. The label prides itself on its diverse roster, showcasing both established names and emerging talents.

As an authoritative figure in the electronic music scene, Running Back has gained a reputation for its exceptional taste and discerning curation. With their distinct sound and attention to detail, they have created a catalog of releases that resonate with fans worldwide.

Often copied, 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.
