Subject: (yello) ReWatch/ISO


     Finally received my ReWatch by mailorder with the special CD and
     thought I'd let you all know about them.

     First of all the watch, it's really nice! The set comes in a metal box
     and fitted cardboard to hold the watch and CD.  The case of the watch
     is a crushed Budweiser can (which is great for me, because I also
     collect beer mementos), the strap is from a recycled leather seat
     cover,  the workings of the watch are new.  There's nothing fancy
     here, no date, no digital stuff, just simply a watch.  The face has
     New York Recycler around the outside with the ReWatch logo, and the "A
     Can Is A Watch" saying in the middle.

     Second, the CD.  It's credited to ISO (Industrial Sound Orchestra) and
     it has four tracks on it.  Same song, just remixes.  Dieter wrote the
     lyrics (what few there are) and did the vocals.  The music is done by
     Martin Klolber, and it sounds like the Solid Pleasure era Yello.
     While Martin is competetent in the music he is definately not Boris!
     The CD is entitled "The Sound of Recycling" but the song is called
     Crash Dance.

     The track order:

     Crash Dance - A Day in April
     Crash Dance - A Day in June
     Crash Dance - Carl's Time
     Crash Dance - Stachanov Special
     Crash Dance - Chill In Movement

     Note track 5 doesn't exist, on the cover of the CD it's listed that it
     was removed due to a management conflict.

     The best track is 4 which is the most finished of the tracks.

     Here's some bizarre parts - the CD itself has the name Carl Crash all
     over it.  For example:  On the CD ISO is not listed it's Carl Crash's
     Crash Dance (a new character for Dieter?); the CD is on Crash Records;
     Executive Producer is Carl Crash.

     The CD was recorded at Soundproof Studios, 22355 Carbon Mesa Road,
     Malibu, California - a division of Yello Music and Motion Pictures.
     Anyone know about this?


     To wrap up, yes the watch is worth it (a bit pricy tho), the CD is
     interesting but not going to chart.  And ordering through WatchWorld
     was easy, however, watch out for the taxes and shipping charges.  The
     added on taxes and shipping bumped the price of the set to over
     $90.00!  In the catalog they sent me there appear to be WatchWorld
     stores located all over the country, check in your area before
     ordering from the mail order.

It is the Dieter's studio. Martin Koibler is a hired audio engineer
in the studio. A keyboard magazine has a photo from the studio and
the equipment listing.

I remember there is an additional photo on the webpages of the company
which build the studio. Don't remember and most perhaps all my material
are at home.

Yours,

Juhana

The Keyboard equipment listing was posted here a long ago but
I will look for it at home.

Look at "http://www.bauton.com/yello.html" for photo and press release
from Yello. Download also second photo "http://www.bauton.com/graphics/
yello.jpeg" (the photo on page is "yello2.jpeg").

Subject: (yello) New Yello songs on old Yello albums!!!

I was looking through a CD catalog on the weekend, and there were
several Yello albums listed with new songs that I've never heard of
before!

The New Mix features the new track 'Look Again'.
Hands on Yello features the song 'Vicious Circle'.
Baby features three new songs: 'Intro', 'Sticky Jungle' and 'Lazy'.

I hope you are all as amused as I was. :-P

It just occurred to me: that as the description of a highly
 sophisticated technological achievement, "Avon's gadget
 works" seems to lack a certain style.
                                  (Avon, "Blakes 7: Trial")
