Kraftwerk re-discovery last night
Posted in Ramblings | Posted on 24-10-2009
Last night on BBC4 they had a programme about Krautrock, which is essentially Germany trying to come up with it’s own non US-Rock-UK Beatles post WWII musical identity, I enjoyed that so much if you are in the UK or you know how to connect to a website via a UK Proxy server then you can watch that programme at Krautrock the rebirth of Germany the following day I realised that just after that they had a 2004 concert of Kraftwerk that to a non geek might not LOOK all that, but to a geek.. oh my god that was just awesome, you can catch that at Kraftwerk: minimum – maximum.
The first programme on Krautrock is all about the birth of electronic music really, the second is the ultimate concert on early electronica. I bought a Kraftwerk 7 inch vinyl when I was an EARLY teenager that was Tour de france, can’t remember why I bought it at such a young age but I must have always been destined for an enjoyment of all things electronic.
Like this?, why not give it a?Tags: bbc4, beatles, discovery, electronic music, geek, germany, god, inch vinyl, kraftwerk, kraut rock, krautrock, minimum maximum, musical identity, proxy server, rebirth, teenager, tour de france
