Yello
Yello is a Swiss electronica band consisting of Dieter Meier and Boris Blank.
They are probably best known for their singles "The Race" and "Oh Yeah", which
feature a mix of electronic music and manipulated vocals.
The band was originally formed by Boris Blank (keyboards, sampling, percussion, backing
vocals) and Carlos Perón (tapes) in the late 1970s. Dieter Meier (vocals, lyrics), a
millionaire industrialist and gambler, was brought in when the two founders realised
that they needed a singer. The new band name Yello was chosen as a pun based on a
statement made by Dieter Meier: “a yelled Hello”
Yello (1980) - Solid Pleasure
This debut album is their strangest and weirdest- it runs the gammut of styles from trippy
psychedelia to pseudo-reggae. Their later releases were more popular but this album is
definitely the most creative. Also check out Claro Que Si and other Ralph Records bands
for ultimate strangeness.
