Since then the quartet has been touring regularly on different stages and festivals and the interaction of the band has formed a fascinatingly cohesive aesthetic unit since its inception. In November, Jason Seizer releases his sixth album on the PIROUET RECORDS label with the title VERTIGO, a recording of a legendary concert in BRs Studio 2.The repertoire of this formation has grown enormously, melodies from Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo", Michael Cimino's "The Deer Hunter" or Ennio Morricone's "Cinema Paradiso" alternate with the musicians' own compositions, and the listener experiences a collective celebration of sound colors.

"…Atemberaubend, wie es Regener hier gelingt, drei separate Erzählebenen gegen Ende wie selbstverständlich zusammen laufen zu lassen, kulminierend in der Frage: "Wie viele Erdbeereise muss der Mensch noch essen?". So einen Song wünscht man sich mal bei einer dieser lächerlichen TV-Jubelheimer-Veranstaltungen wie dem Echo, wo es gang und gäbe ist, der Republik die Abwrack-Poesie talentierter Nichtskönner vorzuführen…" ~laut.de
Element of Crime is a German rock band that plays melancholic chanson-, pop- and rockmusic with guitar, bass, drums and voice/trumpet.
The song "Storybook Love", written and sung by Willy DeVille, was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 60th Academy Awards. The soundtrack was released by Warner Bros. Records in the USA and Vertigo Records internationally in November 1987. It was co-written and recorded by Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits, the only person who director Rob Reiner felt could create a soundtrack to capture the film's quirky yet romantic nature.
