    Only for the truly adventurous among you, those who can open their minds, those who are out of the ordinary, those who.....o.k. I got carried away.
    The Fathers of Techno Pop. The first was their first "big hit" in the early 70s and blew everyones mind.

    Kraftwerk was definitely way ahead of their time.

    I used to play them on the college radio station that I worked at.

    If you ask any pop, techno, rapper, electronica, etc. artist who was influential to their music, most will say Kraftwerk :)

    I own everything they ever put out, both on vinyl and digital :)

    Yes, waaaay ahead of their time. Cool thing is, the music transcends time so it sounds fresh today.

    Yello.


    "Oh Yeah"


    I would be amazed if that song doesn't ring a bell with pretty much everyone.

    Both Kraftwerk and Yello have enjoyed numerous of tier tracks used in movies.
