The Eye marks one of
Yello's most successful albums in recent years and the best
work they have produced in over a decade! Previously only
available on import, we are proud to announce it's US debut.
To make it even more special, we are including a bonus CD of hard
to find remixes and video.
The success of The Eye comes from the freshness of the work, the
range of themes and moods presented, and the tightness of
the package as a whole. Every song is fresh and new and guaranteed
to please any Yello fan. The album begins with it's fastest
dance track, Planet Dada, but quickly shifts gears to a more
lyrical and atmospheric feel for the remainder. Jade Davies
adds her smooth vocals to a handful of the tracks which creates an almost
groove/soul type feel for much of the album. Everything from
synthesized and sampled electronica to lyrical ballads to dance
club themes to samba and bossa-nova rhythms are all
provided for pure unabashed entertainment.
The Swiss duo Yello is comprised of vocalist/conceptualist Dieter
Meier and composer/arranger Boris Blank. The two began their musical
collaborations in 1979. Boris Blank's talent as a composer
is the key to the richness of Yello's music, and his skill in
engineering the finished product is unmatched and perfectly complemented by
Dieter Meier's imaginative lyrics and eccentric vocals.
Known as pioneers of electronic music and cult superstars
since the release of their first album, Solid Pleasure, Yello
are equally revered by club fanatics, hip hop heads,
electro rock afficianados, as well as the sophisticated lounge
crowd. They are probably most well known for their single, Oh Yeah,
which was featured in the film Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Their songs have
been used in over 30 Hollywood movies.
