Search - Carlos Peron :: Nothing Is True: Everything Is Permitted

After Impersonator I and Die Schwarze Spinne, Nothing Is True; Everything is Permitted was the third solo release by Carlos Peron, seeing the light of day in 1984. This re-release marks the first time Nothing Is True? has been available on CD format and is an extremely rare and sought after obscurity on vinyl. After the release of Yello?s classic You Gotta Say Yes To Another Excess and the following live concert in London, Peron retreated from his active role in Yello and began to mix his album Nothing Is True; Everything is Permitted, which eventually went down in music history as a dark soundtrack - only without a film. Carlos then cut the album in 45 rpm Worldcut; the result being that Belgian DJs could play it against better knowledge on 33 rpm in the clubs and thus was founded the so-called ?New Beat?. The Revisited version of Nothing Is True? is packaged as a double CD with 5 bonus tracks and a bonus disc with the entire album mastered at 33 rpm. "The way I work is like a film director - first there?s the vision of how a song is going to sound. Then the musicians that I surround myself with translate that idea perfectly into sound", observes Carlos Peron. Outsiders occasionally claim that Peron operates like a prison warden, perhaps one reason why his various projects seem so mature. Carlos Peron was the founder of globally renowned cult act Yello, initiator of the world?s first ever video clip, The Evening?s Young from the group?s second album Claro Que Si. Following the fifth Yello album You Gotta Say Yes To Another Excess, which was released as the world?s first ever Compact Disc in 1983, Carlos left the group to embark on an ambitious solo career. Many music critics agree that Yello lost their raw edge with the departure of Peron. Throughout the 80s to the present, Carlos released several critically acclaimed solo records, scored countless films and television programs and has worked as a highly in-demand producer. In 2006, Carlos is scheduled to re-issue his entire back catalogue consisting of 27 albums, which will all be remastered, repackaged and complemented by rare bonus tracks on SPV?s Synthetic Symphony label.
