Carlos Perón is a Swiss musician, and founding member of the band Yello. He founded the Tranceonic studio in Zürich together with Boris Blank. In this experimental studio the two developed what would later become the famous Yello sound.

In 1978 Perón and Boris Blank made a trip to the U.S. to sell their music to labels, and visited RCA in Los Angeles and the Residents' label Ralph Records in San Francisco. After returning to Switzerland Dieter Meier joined as a vocalist to form the trio Yello. The first maxi single “I.T. Splash” was released on the local label Periphery Perfume. In 1980 Yello released their first album Solid Pleasure. In 1981 Perón released his first solo album Impersonator on the label Konkurrenz/Phonogram, and Yello got a long term major deal on Phonogram as well. In 1983 Perón released the soundtrack to the film “Die Schwarze Spinne” by director Mark M. Rissi on the label Milan Disques.

In early 1983, just after release of “You Gotta Say Yes to Another Excess,” Perón left Yello in order to pursue a solo career. In 1985 he released his first oratorio “Die Schöpfung der Welt; oder 7 Tage Gottes.” From 1991 on he worked with label owner Lothar Gärtner of Strange Ways Records, and produced solo works and also bands like Wolfsheim, Sielwolf, The Cain Principle, Stalin, Cyrus, Recall, and many others. In this phase he also created the so-called fetish soundtracks like “Terminatrix,” and “La Salle Blanche.”

From 2006 on the music company SPV began to re-release Perón’s entire solo works on Revisited Records worldwide. Perón now works worldwide as a music producer.
