A different drum.com:
'Alan presents a new album filled with traditional synthpop with a somewhat new romantic feel, with one quirky, fun song after another.'
Musicfrom.nl:
'Die eigen stijl is precies hetgene dat Alan Lauris boven veel andere singer/songwriters doet uitsteken.'
'Veel nummers op zijn album blijven opvallend goed hangen. Zo klinkt 'You Need A Shredder' alsof het rechtstreeks TMF op zou kunnen. Het is samen met openingsnummer 'Time Out' één van de fijnste liedjes op deze plaat.'
'Al met al maakt Alan Lauris unieke muziek.'
Radioindy.com:
'With a cool, restrained tenor voice not unlike Sparks’ Russell Mael (sans Mael’s outrageously wicked flights of falsetto), Lauris delivers proto-dance pop with an infectious nod-and-a-wink exuberance that’s irresistible.'
'the frenetic, “The Ratrace” (which is a little reminiscent of the wonderful 70’s Sparks knock-off band, Jet) is brilliant'
Yo Alan Laurisasaurus. I just found out that we're related...and as a special family only present we've made a new song for you called "End of Days" (start doing backflips now). It's an epic instrumental opus to the moment when our ancient Dino relatives saw a large fiery object plummeting towards them. Please come to our page, give it a listen and let us know if it makes you feel like something catastrophic is gonna happen. If the song upsets you too much we will be holding several s support groups (read: comcerts) in the near future. Check our page for locations, dates and times.
Thank you for adding me...I make it a point to listen to everyones songs. I listened to all of yours, several times. Good stuff! Great vibe and sonic texture. Wishing you the best of everything.

Friday the 25th of September our latest member of the family will present one beauty of a record named 'Reverence for Fallen Trees'. You might've seen it floating by on the internet being downloaded almost 30.000 times now and being praised on several websites. But you know us, a proper release needs a hardcopy release, so in db's we'll present the six-page digipack plus the limited 12" vinyl edition of The Black Atlantics debut album. Best be there!
That's not enough for you? Well, come see Windmill & palloc! It's gonna be great!
In collaboration with the In A Cabin With project we'd like to present you our seventh official Beep! Beep! release.
The Black Atlantic - Reverence for Fallen Trees
A fantastic debut album by this talented acoustic indie pop group. If you like Bon Iver, The Antlers, Fleet Foxes, Sigúr Ros & Patrick Watson, you better start downloading, buddy!
Hi there, Thanks for the add. We are a Post Rock/Electronica band from Cairo, Egypt. Our debut album "Marching Stickmen" is now available FOR FREE on our page. Check us out and feel free to download our album ;)
RadioIndy Reviews: Drawing on synth and techno-drenched pop of the 80’s, Alan Lauris’s second full-length CD, “Different Frequency,” is a fun and joyous romp into dance music’s glorious past. With a cool, restrained tenor voice not unlike Sparks’ Russell Mael (sans Mael’s outrageously wicked flights of falsetto), Lauris delivers proto-dance pop with an infectious nod-and-a-wink exuberance that’s irresistible. Most effective are the straight-up dance floor gems like the CD opener, “Time Out” or “You Need a Shredder,” although the frenetic, “The Ratrace” (which is a little reminiscent of the wonderful 70’s Sparks knock-off band, Jet) is brilliant. But the Dutch composer & producer also demonstrates a keen flair for other pop styles too, particularly on the top-hat-and-tap-shoe “Puttin’ On the Ritz”-like number, “Snowball”, and the celluloid-infused melancholy of “Same Old Building.” Well-executed from start to finish (with full-length and radio edits of three songs), the 13-track “Different Frequency” CD is not so much an updating of a sound once defined by performers such as Pet Shop Boys & Human League as it is a sincere & lively celebration of their sound and the era.
