Yello is a Swiss electronic band consisting of Dieter Meier and Boris Blank. They are most famous for their 1985 single "Oh Yeah" which featured in the films ''Ferris Bueller's Day Off'', ''The Secret of My Success'' and ''K-9''. And for The Race which peaked at number 7 on the UK Singles Chart. ==Band history== The band was 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 comment made by Meier, "a yelled Hello". Yello's first release was the 1979 single "I.T. Splash". The LP ''Solid Pleasure'', featuring the original short version of "Bostich" (extended to a hit dance single in 1981), was released in November 1980. In 1983, Yello received substantial media attention with the release of "I Love You" and "Lost Again". Perón left the band in 1983 to start a solo career. With their 1983 album ''You Gotta Say Yes to Another Excess'', the band began a working relationship with Ernst Gamper, whose "corner cut" logo would represent them for three albums, and who would design covers for the group beyond the demise of this logo. In 2005, Yello re-released their early albums ''Solid Pleasure'', ''Claro Que Si'', ''You Gotta Say Yes to Another Excess'', ''Stella'', ''One Second'', and ''Flag'', all with rare bonus tracks, as part of the Yello Remaster Series. A documentary on Yello, ''Electro Pop made in Switzerland'', directed by Anka Schmid, was premiered at the Riff Raff cinema in Zürich in September 2005.〔()〕 Yello was commissioned to produce music for the launch of the Audi A5 at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2007 and for the Audi A5 commercial in May 2007. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yello」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
