Horch House makes history with Yello and offers the analogue music work of Boris Blank and Dieter Meier on tape for the first time. A total of five top albums by Yello will be made available in stages.
It starts with the album STELLA, which can be ordered from 3 April 2024 and will be delivered from 26 April.
YELLO celebrated their global breakthrough in 1985 with their fourth longplayer "Stella", with which Dieter Meier and Boris Blank shot to the top of the Swiss charts - making them the first local band to reach number 1 in the Swiss charts. In Germany, the album reaches 6th place in the charts and is honoured with a gold record. While YELLO had previously been treated as a well-kept insider tip, the entire pop world now focussed on the Zurich duo. With the mega-hit "Oh Yeah", YELLO left their mark on international pop culture for the first time: after the song, which was not originally planned as a single, entered the international charts, the hype took on a life of its own when "Oh Yeah" was featured on the soundtrack of the cinema blockbusters "Ferris macht blau" (1986) and "Das Geheimnis meines Erfolges" (1987), inspiring a worldwide audience of millions. To this day, the song can be heard at regular intervals in cinema and TV productions such as "The Simpsons" and countless commercials.
"Boris played me an instrumental that I couldn't think of anything to play," remembers Dieter Meier. "He asked me to imagine sitting on a beach while the sun goes down, the first martini is served and you slowly fall asleep. That's how the exclamation 'Oh yeah' came about - probably the shortest Dadaist text in the history of pop music. When I enter America, I'm always asked at customs if I've published anything well-known when I say 'musician'. I always answer 'Oh yeaaaaaaaaah' and can usually go through straight away..."
