Autobahn

Autobahn (1974) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

Although Kraftwerk's first three albums were groundbreaking in their own right, Autobahn is where the group's hypnotic electronic pulse genuinely came into its own. The main difference between Autobahn and its predecessors is how it develops an insistent, propulsive pulse that makes the repeated rhythms and riffs of the shimmering electronic ...

Computer World [Japan Bonus Track]

Computer World [Japan Bonus Track] (1981) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

The last great Kraftwerk album, Computer World captured the band right at the moment when its pioneering approach fully broke through in popular music, thanks to the rise of synth pop, hip-hop, and electro. As Arthur Baker sampled "Trans-Europe Express" for "Planet Rock" and disciples like Depeche Mode, OMD, and Gary Numan scored major hits, ...

Radio-Activity

Radio-Activity (1975) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

A concept album exploring themes of broadcast communications, Radio-Activity marked Kraftwerk's return to more obtuse territory, extensively utilizing static, oscillators, and even Cage-like moments of silence to approximate the sense of radio transmission; a pivotal record in the group's continuing development, the title track -- the first they ...

Trans-Europe Express

Trans-Europe Express (1977) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

Although Autobahn was a left-field masterpiece, Trans-Europe Express is often cited as perhaps the archetypal (and most accessible) Kraftwerk album. Melodic themes are repeated often and occasionally interwoven over deliberate, chugging beats, sometimes with manipulated vocals; the effect is mechanical yet hypnotic. Thematically, the record feels ...

Minimum-Maximum (2005) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

For rock bands, hauling gear across countries and continents has not changed a great deal in the past several decades. The same can't be said for Kraftwerk. Grappling with sensitive cables and other technical gadgets in extreme climates has become a thing of the past. For them, everything has become easier to manage and transport, so it's natural ...

Expo Remix [CD] (2001) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

After finally releasing a new track, commissioned by Expo 2000 in Hanover, Germany, Kraftwerk proceeded to open it up to a whole new set of remixers. Featuring four remixes by Detroit's influential Underground Resistance, one from British electronic musicians Orbital, one from seminal DJ/producer François Kevorkian, and several from Kraftwerk ...

Tour de France Soundtracks

Tour de France Soundtracks (2003) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

Among electronic artists (as well as virtually the entire record industry), only Kraftwerk could construct a viable album by making only minimal adjustments to a sound they made definitive more than 30 years earlier. Tour de France Soundtracks, the group's first record in more than 15 years, is quintessentially Kraftwerk but still fits in well ...

Electric Cafe

Electric Cafe (1986) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

Five long years after Computer World, Kraftwerk finally resurfaced with another LP, Electric Cafe; the rest of the pop music industry having finally caught up with the group's vision, they no longer seem so innovative and inspired -- indeed, the record's brief running time (under 36 minutes) seems indicative of a lack of ideas and new directions, ...

The Mix

The Mix (1991) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

By the early '90s, it was quite apparent just how far-reaching Kraftwerk's influence had been. From techno to hip-hop to industrial music to house, numerous others were undeniably indebted to the group. Dance clubs had long been a key part of Kraftwerk's following, and the dance market was the obvious target of The Mix -- a collection of highly ...

The Man-Machine (1978) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

The Man-Machine is closer to the sound and style that would define early new wave electro-pop -- less minimalistic in its arrangements and more complex and danceable in its underlying rhythms. Like its predecessor, Trans-Europe Express, there is the feel of a divided concept album, with some songs devoted to science fiction-esque links between ...

Smooth Grooves: At the Club (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

This edition of Rhino's Smooth Grooves series concentrates on songs that would be perfect for a weekend at a nightclub -- songs you can slow dance or groove to, not dancefloor ravers (with a notable exception or two). Nearly half of the songs are from 1980, with many more dating between 1981 and 1984; the compilation dips back into the '70s for ...

Expo 2000 [Hologram Cover] [German] (1999) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

Kraftwerk's first new song after a nearly 20-year break, this song was commissioned for Expo 2000 in Hanover, Germany. In fact, they received such a lucrative commission for it that German taxpayers complained about their paycheck.The song is audibly Kraftwerk; the simple melodies and drumbeats are there. However, instead of sounding innovative, ...

Electropop Essentials (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Electropop Essentials showcases some of the biggest artists, composers, and chart-toppers to come out of the '80s synth-wave circuit. Notable artists such as the Eurythmics, Bronski Beat, Soft Cell, and Kraftwerk became some of the more recognizable U.K. acts to make it overseas, and their tracks are included on this solid collection. Cuts from ...

Q Anthems (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

Brought to you by England's Q magazine, Q Anthems is a two-disc compilation of favorites that span the late '60s to the early 2000s. The Kinks' "Waterloo Sunset," David Bowie's "Heroes," the Clash's "London Calling," and the Sex Pistols' "God Save the Queen" represent the '60s and '70s. Though the sequencing has nothing to do with chronology, ...

New Romantics [EMI 1996] (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

New Romantics is a decent, if somewhat flawed look at the theatrical, Roxy Music/David Bowie-influenced new wave subgenre. There are a number of obscurities and/or questionable selections -- the robotic synth-pop of Kraftwerk and Devo don't really fit the definition of "new romantic," for example -- and the artists here aren't always represented ...

Kraftwerk 2 (1972) more music like this

by Kraftwerk

Like its predecessor (similarly designed right down to the traffic cone cover, though green instead of red), Kraftwerk 2 has never been properly re-released, giving it the same lost-classic aura as the first album, or at least lost, period. Thankfully, bootleg reissues in 1993 restored it to wider public listening; even more so than Kraftwerk 1, ...
