Constantin Seibt called the work “a book like a punch”. Florian Leu wrote in the Tages-Anzeiger : “If the underworld of football has a soundtrack, then it sounds like Ryser's language: without frills, frippery and adjectives. Ryser puts the quotes together so skillfully that a film emerges, albeit a jerky and grainy one. "

Yello: Boris Blank and Dieter Meier (2011)

Also designed as a large report, Ryser published the official biography of techno pioneers Yello in 2011 . Ex- Spex editor-in-chief Max Dax praised the book as a work “that tells the story of Yello in great miniatures”.

Rolling Stone wrote: "Ryser describes the riot, the chaos, the frustration as if he had been there." Christoph Dallach referred to Spiegel Online , the language of the book as "appropriately snotty" and the book itself as a "surprisingly entertaining": "This has been achieved book but also because there is no punk - Nerd specialists-work was, but easy and accessible from tells about the possibilities of rebellion in the FRG.
