Yello
    Contact: [e-mail] (Cliff Tuel)

    Yello.  Beginning as an avant-garde New Wave experiment on Ralph
    Records around 1980, Yello continue to evolve to this day, generally
    producing rhythmic pop songs with long instrumental passages and
    complex percussion arrangements with strong Latin influences.  Although
    often overlooked in techno articles, Yello has been very influential
    and often way ahead of their time in the realm of electronic dance
    music.  They now run their own techno label, Solid Pleasure Records,
    and have a new album in the pipes for early 1994.
