Kraftwerk

WHAT?! No Kraftwerk love yet?

Well, considering they practically started electronic music...i'm surprised. Any listen to one of their classic albums such as Trans Europe Express, is all the proof you need on how influential they were directly or indirectly for electronic musician's from the 70's on. Although not every record they did was a true classic, they were always doing something interesting.Their best material were the 70's albums of course, but their other stuff is still far from bad. So, who here has actually heard their records?

Heh, Kraftwerk certainly was ahead of their time. Been quite a while since I have listened to any of their albums, so i'll have to change that in the near feature. By the way, did you hear that the members of Can were apart of Kraftwerk for a little while. There were some interesting results recorded from that period.

Wow, I have heard Trans Europe Express, but I never knew anything more about the artist. Its a friends fault, had me listen to her stuff one day and never tells me anything about who I am listening to.

What do you think is the best album so far, so I can check it out abit more.

Kraftwerk is AMAZING

How could I even attempt to claim otherwise?

But yeah, I love everything I have heard from them. And yes, I DO mean everything

I was just listening to a bootleg *ahem* Kraftwerk concert from the mid 70's the other night, and it was amazing. A lot of their early classics were played, and it was awesome. Sound quality was surprisingly decent too!

I have heard a lot of praise for Kraftwerk over the years, and I think I even own some, that probably never gets broadcast, because I'm too lazy to look for it. I've never listened to them, and now I feel silly, lol, because yep, I do have some in my playlists. Shame on me. I will definitely check them out now.

Wow, you honestly never heard Kraftwerk before?

SHAME ON YOU!!!

Better late than never though, so hopefully you enjoy what you hear.

They are one of the fathers of all electronic music, so they deserve much praise.
