Yello's sound is mainly characterized by unusual music samples, a heavy reliance on rhythm and Dieter Meier's dark voice. Boris Blank has taken a couple of vocal turns; on "Swing" (from You Gotta Say Yes to Another Excess) and "Blazing Saddles" (from Flag), and guest vocalists have included Rush Winters (the first female diva to be featured on a Yello recording), Billy MacKenzie, Stina Nordenstam, Jade Davies and Shirley Bassey. The group has shared writing credit with MacKenzie and Winters. Yello rarely uses samples from previously released music; nearly every instrument has been sampled and engineered by Boris Blank, who over the years has built up an original sample library of over 100,000 named and categorized sounds.[6]
The music is composed by Boris Blank, who considers himself a perfectionist. When the tracks are mostly finished, Dieter Meier adds the vocal parts when fitting.

est-ce qu'il dit vraiment "cacahuète cacahuète cacahuète ..." ? des années que je me pose la question :D

samples is not really the right word, as most of his library is stuff he's recorded, edited and effected into unrecognisablesness. the bloke is a genius (up there with lee perry, foetus and prince), though his perfectionism and inability to reproduce his studio sound, has meant only a handful of live shows since 1978. the 1st track on the 1st record i put out (L.A. view) used bits of i love you (i was so pissed off by ritchie hawtin's pathetic effort), i used tied up on several later tunes.
