Lauer

Phillip Lauer, better known simply as Lauer, is a prolific German DJ, producer, and musician hailing from Frankfurt. Renowned for his eclectic blend of house, disco, synth-pop, and balearic sounds, Lauer has become a significant figure in the modern electronic music scene. He is half of the acclaimed duo Tuff City Kids (with Gerd Janson), one third of Black Spuma (with Fabrizio Mammarella), and is also involved in projects such as Hotel Lauer and Brontosaurus.

With solo releases on esteemed labels like Running Back, Permanent Vacation, Beats in Space, and Futureboogie, Lauer’s distinctive touch is marked by shimmering synthesizers, melodic basslines, and a playful retro-futurism. Across his solo albums—**"Phillips"** (2012), **"Borndom"** (2015), **"Power"** (2018), and **"Answers 2 Trouble"** (2021)—Lauer has demonstrated a knack for crafting dance floor hooks and emotionally resonant tracks that defy genre pigeonholing. Beyond his original productions, his dynamic DJ sets and remixes have made him a staple at clubs and festivals worldwide.

Influenced by the vibrant electronic heritage of the Rhine-Main area, Lauer’s music is deeply rooted in the traditions of German club culture while remaining fresh and forward-looking. Lauer continues to evolve as an artist, blurring boundaries between genres and infusing his work with a sense of humor, nostalgia, and danceable warmth that appeals to dedicated club-goers and casual listeners alike.
