If you like this page listen the modern bands inspired by Kraftwerk at clickpop.net download now Planet 2 - Headspin Master (MP3) Thanks! webmaster The story of Kraftwerk is the story of how electronic music has influenced modern music. When an avantgarde German band called Organisation trimmed down to a two-piece and reinvented themselves as Kraftwerk, they set in motion a train of events which introduced a whole new language into popular culture. Ralf Hütter and Florian Schneider Esleben has pushed electronic music further than anyone ever thought possible - pre-dating electro, house, ambient and techno by more than two decades. They are, quite simply, the most influential pop group of the late 20th century. The Kraftwerk story begins in the end of the 1960s and I have concentrated on the early years between ' 68 and ' 73. This site is one of the most visited and respected Kraftwerk sites on the net, online since 24 August 1996. Over 50 000 visitors so far, check my stats here visitors. No URL changes for 4 years so it's safe to link to my pages! "The mechanical universe of Kraftwerk has been cloned or copied in Detroit , Brussels, Milan, Manchester, and even psychedelicised by the delerium of house music. You can define it as you want; sci-fi music, techno-disco, cybernetic rock. but the term I prefer even so is robot pop. It fits in with our objective which consists of working without respite toward the construction of the perfect pop song for the tribes of the global village." Ralf Hütter
