"power station") is a German band | | | | formed in Dusseldorf in 1970 by Ralf Huetter and | | | | Florian Schneider. Widely considered as innovators | | | | and pioneers of electronic music, they were among | | | | the first successful acts to popularize the genre. | | | | The group began as part of West Germany's | | | | experimental krautrock scene in the early 1970s | | | | before fully embracing electronic instrumentation, | | | | including synthesizers, drum machines, and vocoders. | | | | | | | | On commercially successful albums such as Autobahn | | | | (1974), Trans-Europe Express (1977), The Man-Machine | | | | (1978), and Computer World (1981), Kraftwerk | | | | developed a self-described "robot pop" style that | | | | combined electronic music with pop melodies, sparse | | | | arrangements, and repetitive rhythms, while adopting | | | | a stylized image including matching suits. Following | | | | the release of Electric Cafe (1986), Wolfgang Fluer | | | | left the group in 1987, followed by percussionist | | | | Karl Bartos in 1990. Founding member Schneider left | | | | in 2008. | | | | | | | | The band's work has influenced a diverse range of | | | | artists and many genres of modern music, including | | | | synth-pop, hip hop, post-punk, techno, ambient, and | | | | club music. In 2014, the Recording Academy honoured | | | | Kraftwerk with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. | | | | They later won the Grammy Award for Best | | | | Dance/Electronic Album with their live album 3-D The | | | | Catalogue (2017) at the 2018 ceremony. As of 2020, | | | | the band continues to tour. | | | | | | | | | | | | Trans-Europe Express (German: Trans Europa Express) | | | | is the sixth studio album by German electronic music | | | | band Kraftwerk. Recorded in mid-1976 in Duesseldorf, | | | | Germany, the album was released in March 1977 on | | | | Kling Klang Records. It saw the group refine their | | | | melodic electronic style, with a focus on sequenced | | | | rhythms, minimalism, and occasionally manipulated | | | | vocals. The themes include celebrations of the | | | | titular European railway service and Europe as a | | | | whole, and meditations on the disparities between | | | | reality and appearance. | | | | | | | | Trans-Europe Express charted at 119 on the American | | | | charts and was ranked number 30 in The Village | | | | Voice's 1977 Pazz & Jop critics' poll. Two singles | | | | were released: "Trans-Europe Express" and "Showroom | | | | Dummies". The album has been re-released in several | | | | formats and continues to receive acclaim. In 2014, | | | | the Los Angeles Times called it "the most important | | | | pop album of the last 40 years." | | | | | | | | ------------------------------------------------ | | | _|_______ _________ ______________________________| |__. | \_ _ \_\_ \_ \ ______\ ___/__ | | | | / / / / / /_/ /\___ / - N E W S - | | | | /___/ / ____/ / / / / / | | | | | /___/____/ \___/____/_________/________________________| |__| | | | | | | hi2u! go to the show, buy the records, stop whining | | | _|______ ____ ___ __________ ________________________| |__. | \_ ___/__\__ \__\_ \__\_ \_ _/__\ _/__ | | | | / \_ / _ /_ / / / / /\____ / - H E L L O - | | | | \___ / / / __/ ___/ / / / | | | | | /__/__/____/__/ \__/ /__/__________/___________________| |__| | | | | | | 13 1way aeroholics agw bass bcc berc bnp boss ct cmc | | | | d2h ddb diss divinestylers dl dps ethnic fmr fnt fwyh | | | | hit2000 hm hqem hta hushhush i8 impg jazzman kinky kw | | | | maem mbs njs noir nuc nuhs radial sb sever shelter | | | | pyt siberia soup sour sq tr trt usr | | | | | | | | ... thank you for the music and/or the good fun! | | | |_________________________________________________________| |_. | | nfo & design by #MONk!# of diViNE sTYLERS! | | | | _ |---------------------------------------------------------| _ |-' |/ \| |/ \|
