Legendary electronic pioneers Yello release their first new album since 2009. 'Toy' is the duo's thirteenth album. Like all great Yello records, 'Toy' is playful, super-sharp and ultra-modern; something akin to a set of vivid snapshots of a utopian futurist Europe rendered in glorious techno-colour. Taking in joyous liquid electronics (on first single 'Limbo', 'Tool Of Love'), continental torch songs ('Starlight Scene', 'Dark Side'), glimmering Balearic sunset music ('Blue Biscuit') and myriad points in between, 'Toy' is the unmistakable sound of Dieter Meier and Boris Blank gleefully working at the top of their game after nearly four decades making music together. Recorded at Yello Studio, Zurich, Toy features guests Fifi Rong (vocals on Kiss the Cloud, Dark Side) Malia (vocals on Cold Flame, Starlight Scene, Give You The World) Heidi Happy (vocals on Dialectical Kid), Jeremy Baer (all guitars).
