Talk:Yello
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I've been under the impression that Blank used some presets for the "Zebra" album, but am not confident enough to enter this. yellow mortgages www.yellowmortgages.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.243.20.233 (talk) 12:53, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] About cleanup
I'm quite new to this Wikipedia thing and english is not my native languange, but one thing I could do is to cleanup the released album section. There is no need to put remastered albums on their own links as the information about those rereleases should appear under original album links. I happen to have all those remastered CDs, so I have the neccessary information about those at hand. I should begin this cleanup in a day or two. --ZagMac 13:01, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
- I dont see the necessity for a cleanup. Can someone be more specific? --Kameyama 14:45, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
- I just did some major work, deleted some NPOV stuff, got rid of duplicated info, reorganized a bit, and deleted redlinks to all the remastered albums. I switched the tag from cleanup to unsourced, since that's the main problem now. Chubbles 17:25, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Electronica or techno?
The article says electronica, but I've always heard Yello described as techno. I've been listening to Yello since the 80s, before the term "electronica" was invented. To me it sounds like "electronica" is what some people call the artists that used to be called techno, because to these people "techno" means something more like house or trance now. Anyway, a google search on "yello electronica" yields 70.000 hits, but "yello techno" yields 178.000 hits. I guess most people still feel the way I do. 193.91.181.142 02:52, 12 January 2007 (UTC) (Nick)
In the current sense "techno" seems to connote more of an industrial/aggressive/high-energy quality, whereas "electronica" seems to encompass a more subdued, melodic quality. I agree though, these genres and sub-genres are certainly very ephemeral. I figure the current classification of Yello is more accurate than techno. SquareWave 06:27, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
