I love Yamo's stuff!!!!!! I have two releases from Yamo - the Time Pie cd and the Musica Obscura remix 12". Both releases were written and produced by Wolfgang Flür (Ex-Kraftwerk member) & Mouse on Mars members Andi Toma + Jan St Werner with vocals by Lowlife/Karaoke Kalk artist Donna Regina. Add to that the fact that all the Yamo material was recorded in MoM's St Martin Tonstudio and it will be no suprise that Time Pie sounds a hell-of-alot like Iaora Tahiti-era Mouse on Mars with male & female kraftwerk-style vocals over the top. The MoM relationship goes even further - on the Time Pie cd there is a previously unreleased remix of MoM's Stereomission track (which appeared on Iaora Tahiti with Wolfgang Flur guesting on drums) with vocals over the top. On "Time Pie" Stereomission was renamed Stereomatic. Anyway the rest of 10 tracks on "Time Pie" are equally as entertaining if you enjoy a toe-tapping quirky teutonic vocal techno-pop sound. Yamo's Musica Obscura remix 12" came out around the time of the Time Pie cd and it contains more floor-friendly remixes of Time Pie tracks by The Bionaut & S.Baltes. Even though I've had these Yamo releases for almost two years i still listen to them with great regularity. Supposedly a new Yamo album, called Serenity Supreme, is forthcoming but it's been promised since '97 shortly after Time Pie and Musica Obscura came out. If you want to hear some Yamo tracks for yourself there are some RA samples on the CDNow.com website. Search for Yamo under the artist category and click on "Time Pie" for the RA files. Unfortunately they dont have RA for the best track, Guiding Ray, but at least you'll get a good taste of the Yamo sound from the other RA files. -->-Lance--- lance@inaudible.com p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
