Subject: (yello) Re: Art of Noise/Other recommendations

Long time no type!

Thanks Larry for your recommendations for us Yello fans.
I quite agree with you about Art of Noise. 'In Visible Silence'
and 'In No Sense? Nonsense!' are my favourites too.
And I've been looking for other Eno material ever since I
found 'Life in the Bush of Ghosts' - a collaboration with David
Byrne from Talking Heads - this is also a great favourite of mine,
although a very old tape now.
A good Feat friend of mine has just finished recording his CD under
the name 'Otis P Spunkmeyer' (weird or what?) and on first listen
there's a lot of Yello influence. I mentioned this to him and he said
he'd heard of them, but only old stuff like The Race.
Sooooooo..... here's a good opportunity for me to turn him on to
the more recent stuff. A sample tape will be winging its way to him!

Move..... Dance..... Be born
Mike

Subject: (yello) 'A New Culture Is Born'

Hi all!

As Jonas already pointed out a couple of weeks ago, Dieter Meier made a
collaboration with the two German DJs 'Blank & Jones' [it is 'Piet'
Blank not 'Boris' this time].

For those of you who are interested here are the lyrics of Dieter's
intro speech:

- ---------------------------------------------------

DJ CULTURE

are you ready?
are you ready now?

in the world of machines
- - virtual machines -
dominated by software
everything is cold
cold as ice.

the quintessential synthesis of silence
a vibrating galaxy
an invisible spectrum of waves
and hidden behind a gigantic shadow of alpha centauris
signs of galertic light
and life

figures finding form

culture
dance culture
a manifesto of cult
dj cult

blank and jones
the druids of rave
warm - suddenly warm
dancing molecular structures creating human bodies
awakening human minds
silent suns turning purple
orange
red
blank and jones

a pulsating universe beyond time and space
the perception of sound - human forms
and then
rhythm

eyes wide open drinking from the light of rave
a new culture is born
dj culture

move your body
find yourself

- ---------------------------------------------------

And here you can find the intro as mp3 [for limited time only!]:

If you wanna find out more about 'Blank & Jones' buy their latest CD 'DJ
Culture' and visit their website at:

http://www.blankandjones.de


If you wanna find out more about me ;-)), visit:

http://www.schmauch.de


In my opinion 'A New Culture Is Born' is far from being as good as the
intro and outro on Yello's 'Pocket Universe', but give it a try and find
out for yourself!

Yours,
     Matthias Egerland

Is EBay Item #360581020 for real?  I haven't heard of the "Platinum
Collection '2000" album by Yello.

No this is only one of those lousy bootlegs going arount in the net.
They only contain some tracks also available in every CD-store
Some are also made up with mp3 files.

The only "real bootleg" I know is the cut of the Madyday-Event in
Germany...

Yours,
Georg

Subject: (yello) Essential Christmas

Hi!

I just spotted the Yello album "Essential Christams" on Amazon.de, I never
knew this album existed... Looks like that it is out of print or something
and the year of release is 1995; it seems to be a "hits compilation". Does
anybody have more info about this album or maybe could give us a tracklist
of the songs please?

Thanks!
Farshid

Subject: (yello) Yello Fan Recommendation

Rarely do I ever make recommendations on other artists for Yello fans. But,
in the off months while Yello isn't brewing new material, I have to turn to
other sources.

I've come to the belief that most of the folks who enjoy Yello do so because
of the artistic side of their music (which, IMO, sort of took a back seat
with Motion Picture -- Pocket Universe and Zebra are my two favorite albums
of artistic merit) as well as the sound. Nonetheless, I think we can all
appreciate true musicians and true artists when we find them.

Rarely do I feel strongly about and artist and their merits and when I do, I
feel the need to share their work with others. That's why I'm bringing up
this recommendation.

I think you all need to check out this fantastic group from Amsterdam known
to the masses as "Arling & Cameron". For those of you in Europe or Japan,
you may have already heard of them. They are, many times, credited as the
founders of the "easy tune" movement.

I would be willing to venture that these two are the next generation Yello.
Musically, they are slightly different, but their music shares the same
sense of humor and appeal that Yello does (for me).

The two "retail" albums they have are their best work (they even agree to
this). I am more partial to the first album "All-In" but their second work,
"Music for Imaginary Films", is extremely creative.

Be sure to give them a listen. I'll share a couple of MP3s on the FTP server
is anybody wants to post the URL.

- -- Robert
