Meet the Artists Behind This Release
Berlin-based Bulgarian songwriter and vocalist Denitza Todorova produces indie dance and house music under the name Dena. Her releases appear on Permanent Vacation and Running Back, blending pop sensibilities with dance floor-focused production.
Phillip Lauer is a German DJ and producer from Frankfurt who operates under several aliases including Brontosaurus and DJ Speckgürtel. His indie dance and nu disco productions appear on Permanent Vacation, Running Back, and Live At Robert Johnson, spanning house and melodic techno across 55 releases since 2011.
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 usually 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.//
