Yesterdays Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung had some more details: - The CD/CD-ROM is scheduled for late October. - The extended version runs 18 seconds for each of the six languages. - The CD/CD-ROM will be published under the name "EXPO 2000", not under "Kraftwerk", to avoid legal problems with the group. Kraftwerk will be credited as composers, though. - The EXPO is trying to expand their cooperation with Kraftwerk. - Kraftwerk were irritated about the EXPO online auction of the jingle CD, because the EXPO originally used the name "Kraftwerk-Jingle", which was a violation of their treaty with Kraftwerk. - Kraftwerk's lawyers refused to comment the affair.

Tape concerts in the 1950's - were they "innovative" for simply putting a tape recorder on a stage? To some people they were. We only speculate that they sit endlessly programming MIDI data for concerts and songs and then load them into a computer sequencer for future "manipulation" because that view corresponds to the ideal that kraftwerk has become - a band that can't be matched in innovation. Other bands have been more innovative technologically and musically. Kraftwerk simply writes very good/interesting pop music and maintains a very interesting and thought-provoking image. That is their strength I think - not the belief that they are masters of synthesis and musical innovation. < Aren't they now?

Excerpt form an interview appeared on: http://www.futurenet.com/musiciansnet/Hitech/People/Kraftwerk/kraftwerk.html How do Kraftwerk manage to transfer their music to a live set-up? "It's not pre-recorded, it's in digital storage. There's no tapes, it's all run from computer. Effectively we can change as much as we like, cut off tracks, mute, double... That's what we do - complete access. We can make any track longer, according to the gig. Certain things are written, but certain compositions can have a start point and be totally open-ended, with the programming running into a loop function. It can be however we want it. All the compositions [with the exception of The Robots] are just written as basic sequences." KW4EVER!

Well, I don't know about you guys, but that "intended release of a new album" part, just silenced the skeptic in me... I'd say that they WILL release an album of either brand spanking NEW stuff or a LIVE recording of their last tour by year-end; definitely before June 2000. No "Best of"; "Mix II"; "Re-edition-of-early-psychedelic-stuff" or "The Christmas with the robots" album. In top of that, they WILL appear on the soundtrack of the upcoming Sprockets movie.

Fellow werkers, this what they had to said about them being "static" on stage: Ralf: "We also kind of dance when we perform. It's not that we actually move our bodies but it's this awareness of your whole body. You feel like a dancer" Florian: "Your brain is dancing.

After seeing Kraftwerk at the Warfield here last summer, I decided that a Kraftwerk piece in Gearhead (a mostly punk rock/hot rod/pop culture magazine) was long overdue. So I asked a bunch of writers and musicians that I admired to review their favorite Kraftwerk record, and the results were amazing. Dave Segal and Jason Pettigrew of Alternative Press, well known artist Frank Kozik, John Ginoli of Pansy Division, and the aforementioned Brian of Man Or Astro-Man? are just a few of the people who participated. We've been working on the layout for awhile, I bet even 'ol Ralf and Florian themselves would be proud of it! The magazine "streets" on Sept.22nd if anyone wants to buy one, they can also be mail ordered direct for $7.00 postpaid in the US (each magazine also comes with a 7" split single - this time it's Rocket From The Crypt and The Hellacopters from Sweden) and I guess we could do $10 airmail to Europe, $15 for South America and $20 for the Pacific Rim. If anyone has any questions, I'd be glad to answer them! It may be more fun to compute, but it's also fun to publish! - Mike ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info kraftwerk" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email kraftwerk@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Other questions?

It covers a lot of ground over its three pages, including New Orleans, Bo Diddley, James Brown... Kraftwerk gets a few mentions, the longest being: "Along with the Beach Boys, the Stooges were Kraftwerk's favourite rock group. Indeed, the Stooge's industrial clangour and motor rhythms are at the heart of the German power plant's greatest record, 'Trans-Europe Express'. Like Bo Diddley, Kraftwerk created the end of the century's most enduring rhythms [from the perspective of what, the next century?] by mimicking trains and, later, computers [?]. Where Diddley's guitar was a steam engine moving off in the distance, Kraftwerk's synth lick was the Doppler effect trail left by a French TGV. Sounding more locomotive than any of its competitors, 'Trans Europe Express' is the greatest train song of them all, the final link in the man-machine interface.

The limited CD-/CD-ROM edition of the jingle is still scheduled for autumn, but will not be distributed as a Kraftwerk product, in accordance with the EXPO's treaty with Kraftwerk.

The songs name's "14 Zero Zero" and the albums' name was "Rocket in a Pocket" if I remember it correctly. It runs relatively often in the German Music TV Channel "Viva 2". The song contains robotic synthesizer voices, and had a melody, which was very near to Kraftwerk's style. I don't know if anyone else knows this song/interpret, cause I didn't hear anywhere else about it, neither in radio nor in the internet, maybe it's only a german release. But it's definitely worth looking for it, so I'm going to search for the album in the next days.

I think the song is one of Kraftwerk's best but I simply do not know it's title and, since I have heard all songs published in full-length albums in the USA. I am hoping someone will be able to help me discover more about this song. What's it's title? when was it published? Is it available?

I think the song is one... What I'm about to write has nothing to do with this, but for some reason what Luke wrote, reminded me of a newscast aired in Buenos Aires, Argentina back some 20 years ago that had "Metropolis" as their jingle. The program was called: "60 minutes" (no connection whatsoever with CBS' "60 min"). Goes without saying that my favorite part of that program was its song. I also remember Jarre's "Equinox" and John Miles' "Music" (I used to love that song) being part of a Buenos Aires TV weekly magazine program called: "Monica Presenta". Oh, those good old days...

Blinking lights can correspond to a multitude of functions; they aren't always binary interpretations of "note on/note off". I have midi devices with LEDs that constantly blink just to indicate that there is a connection between it and another decive. Also, we must keep in mind that LED volume meters could be corresponding to one instrument, two instruments, or maybe just the effects channel. ALSO keep in mind that Kraftwerk does live mixing onstage; certain devices may still be playing even though the musicians have taken that element out of the mix! (by fading it out, or whatever) Essentially, it's very silly to presume that ANYBODY except Kraftwerk knows exactly what each device is doing at any given moment! And by the way... When I saw them in Los Angeles in 1998, the lighting was such that I could see shadows of their hands reflected on the ground during "The Model". Unless they went to the ridiculous trouble of memorizing the keystrokes and pretending to play the song, I can assure you that they were performing it live! ---Jason # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info kraftwerk" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email kraftwerk@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Other questions?

But if they can mime at a TV show, they can easily mime during concerts as well. Many bands are suspected to mime during parts of their live shows, the Rolling Stones are a famous example.

The only ones breaking a sweat on his band are the other players, while he tries to be cool striking a pose behind some funny looking keyboards, sunglasses, fireworks and lasers. Tangerine Dream in the other hand wins their money kicking some guitar riffs, and blowing their sax in very small venues and letting their sequencers do the rest.

Although I can say it is quite normal for the LEDs on various pieces of electronic equipment to blink out-of-sync and when not being played. I have a couple of Doepfer 404 synths which have non-syncable LFO rates. The lights blink to the current LFO speeds regardless of whether the instrument is receiving data. Same behavior with the old Roland MC-202 synth and the Lexicon effects module in certain modes. The receipt of MIDI program changes (switching to different sound settings) can cause the front panel lights on some equipment to suddenly "change" as well. Not really unusual behavior. From my vantage point at the Detroit show (with binoculars), the Shaltwerk was indeed being used by Fritz quite extensively throughout the concert. Actually, he appeared to be doing a great deal of the work. Nothing fake about it.

Although I haven't scrutinized any Rolling Stone performances, I'm rather sure that practically any experienced musician would be able to tell if they were miming as well. Now TV shows are truly a completely different issue. To mime on television is a very common practice (no matter how deplorable) not only due to the possibility of mistakes but also due to technical and scheduling challenges in reproducing a proper mix using live instruments. But during the tour, Kraftwerk were not miming The Model or any other song. I've heard and seen the comical mistakes as well as the magnificent dynamic changes in the musical phrasing & timbres that make up Kraftwerk's signature sound. The Kraftwerk performance is about as live as many other electronics based performance. Simply lots of midi streams triggering lots of sounds controlled live at will by the musicians. Why would that be so surprising?

This is my first posting to this list in a long time, but I've already been around two years ago. Special greetings go to John Talbert . There are picture discs of KW1 & KW2 listed in the int. discog, which I'm glad to own copies of (the boots, not the discog ;-), so now I wonder: Are they anything like VALUABLE? Any suggestions? Unless they are really valuable, they will end up as clocks on my wall one day.. ;-) Also, from listening to them once (good sound quality, speaking of picture discs), I remember that one song had an intro that is not included on my CD (Germanofon) edition. Anyone else noticed this? Is this bit included on one of the other CD boots? This part is very quiet, so the bootlegger might have omitted it on purpose if there was two much noise on his/her vinyl copy. The song might have been 'Klingklang', but this is mere suspicion as I'm writing from old memories. - I can check this if anyone's interested. So far, - Thomas # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info kraftwerk" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email kraftwerk@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Other questions?

"Concert Classics" has the wrong song titles listed on the cover... The songs are really Kometenmelodie, Autobahn, Kling Klang, and Tanzmusik. There is some sort of flange/phasing device in the background throughout most of the concert, which creates a bit of noise, but yes, it's certainly the best recording available from that Kraftwerk era!

Why would that be so surprising? I have perhaps the funniest "accidental" performance I've ever seen on video tape. The Pet Shop Boys were on the Tonight Show, right after Jay Leno just took it over. They performed 'Where the Streets Have No Name', dancing angels, backup singers, the works. Well, the angels kept tripping on each other and fell down a couple-times on camera so Chris Lowe (one of the Boys) is too embarrassed to continue the performance... so he walks off half-way through the song. Neil, being the theatre-hardened queen that he is stays it out to complete the song, acting as if nothing had happened at all. A genteman to the end. Chris was no-place to be seen. I want to press it to DVD when I get a burner. They were not lip-synching a thing. It was great.

That is a traditional electro beat. There are hundreds (thousands?) of records containing similar beats. Both in the nu-school electro genre and in the old-school hiphop/electro genre. It is also fairly known that kraftwerks beats are one of the strongest roots of hip hop music. Hence the apparent similarities. --- Fiddle Castrate wrote: > > Listen to Puff Daddy's 'PE 2000'.

Eid" Subject: (kw) Reverse engineering Date: 21 Sep 1999 12:57:15 -0400 Greetings all! This message is for you enterprising Kraftwerk fans who, at one point or another, have covered a Kraftwerk piece in some form, be it a MIDI file, a MOD file, or something else. Right now I'm in a music composition class. One of the long-term exercises our professor has us involved in is to analyze a work that is similar to what we want to do with our own music. I chose to analyze "Computer World". I worked to determine its meter (4/4), form (intro, A section, B section, etc.), which was not overly difficult. I even managed to pick out a couple of melodies and write them out. I had much more difficulty with the percussion, largely because it initially sounds like there's so much going on. There really isn't - the percussion is the same throughout except for a few variations. I haven't tried to figure out the bassline yet. I really struggled to get what I did out of it. I'm wondering what techniques you musicians have used to cover Kraftwerk songs. Did you actually try to pick it apart? Did you instead start from scratch and try to imitate the song as you went? What are good ways to learn how to hear all of the intricacies, particularly overlapping basslines and percussion? Any advice you can give will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! . . \_ +\_ + o_-/ .

It is a company called ePIPO, and it will actually pay you 60 cents an hour to surf the web. They don't get in your way while on-line, and they don't make you visit any special sites, they just have a simple littlesoftware application that sits on your computer, displaying ads and counting your money. The application is no bigger than a typical banner ad, and you can move it around anywhere on your screen, so it really isn't too distracting. The ultimate thing about the concept is that they not only pay you to surf the web, but will also pay you when your friends and family are on-line as well. If you want to check it out, and get a raise while you are at it, go to: http://epipo.com/signup_form.asp?timezero to sign up. Best of luck, and be sure to let me know what you think.

Before receiving Markus's translation (thanks!), I tried to translate Herr Fluer's message using Babelfish and the results were indeed disappointing. http://www.systransoft.com/ gave slightly better results. To be fair to both translation engines, I do suspect that the style of German used, like the gentleman himself, may be quite idiosyncratic?!

"Robots" will be one of the eight tracks including in the forthcoming album by Yello. Their new CD will be released in December and it will take the title "Motion Picture". I heard it on a radio station from Spain, Radio3 RNE to be exact. The programme was Siglo 21 (21st Century). They also aired: FOLK IMPLOSION "Mechanical man", LETFIELD "Africa shox" (with the collaboration of Afrika Bambaataa), DERIVANDO "Computer love" and a song by a group called Antenna.

Matty is now really happy now...and he was wondering if I would grant him a special Mattwerk halo just like Karl...of course I will!!! I just wanted to say that at least ONE person to do with Kraftwerk is human and respects his fans enough to interact with them, like when would Ralf or Florian send me a mail like Wolfgang did??? Wow... Enough sucking up, about my comment regarding Puff Daddy. Please be pessimistic like me and blame him for nicking Numbers for his own mediocre @#$%...burn the thief! Only joking...but it's SO like it, it's uncanny. Believe me. And the synth from Hey Boy Hey Girl (Chemicals) is very similar indeed to It's More Fun To Compute. And seeing as Music:Response was based on Music Non Stop (was admitted!!!), could this be yet another sign that the devine influence of Kraftwerk is still alive and kicking 20 years on???

Plastic Bertrand was mainly known in the late 70's for his worldwide suc= cess "Ca plane pour moi", but he also made afew good New Wave tracks as = well. In my opinion, "tout petit la plan=E8te" is a great example of a KW infl= uenced song, because Plastic Bertrand's voice is very robotic on this on= e and there are some interesting vocoder effects at the end of the song.

Alas, I still can't get the whole thing, as I've been getting download problems after a minute or so of the song... but if others on this list can get download the whole song, they may well find it of interest.

Erik Sundkvist wrote: > I wonder if somebody could tell me what a sequencer and vocoder is. Also > when and if KW uses the soft- or hardware based ones. Many details please! A sequencer is a device or program which allows entry of musical data (i.e. a "sequence" of notes, drum sounds, control changes, etc.) for later playback. Examples include computer programs such as Cakewalk or Cubase, and hardware devices such as the Roland Micro-Composer, the Yamaha QY-70, and the Doepfer MAQ16/3, among many others. Exactly what Kraftwerk actually uses in concert is the subject of some debate, but is officially known that the Doepfer MAQ16/3 MIDI Analog Sequencer was developed in cooperation with Kraftwerk, so it is fairly certain that they use that one. Other Doepfer products, the Schaltwerk and Regelwerk seem to be named after the band, but no claims are made by Doepfer that they are actually used by Kraftwerk. As for a vocoder, it is a device which modulates one signal (the carrier) with the extracted frequency spectrum of another signal (the modulator). Generally, the modulator signal is human speech, and the resulting output is very synthetic/robotic sounding speech. It is reasonably certain that Kraftwerk uses a hardware based vocoder (perhaps the one sold by Doepfer?), as the software based solutions have only come about very recently and are generally too slow for live use. Hope that helps. -- Timon -- # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info kraftwerk" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email kraftwerk@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Other questions?

Date: 29 Sep 1999 14:22:10 GMT Hello KW fans, I need your help! I am trying to compile some of their stuff on my new cd-rewriter. But it's not working, and the Helpdesk is not helping me at all! I have a Sony crx100erp with as software PacketCD and WinOnCd 3.6. So far I've learned that I can only use CD-Rs. The helpdesk says I do not have to format the CD-R, but if I try to write songs to it, the program refuses, the CD-R is "in PacketCD format". But I didn't format it in that format! The CD-R is recognised in my HiFi's CD player but it doesn't contain anything; so how can I add songs??? (or is the program a dud???) Thanks to anyone who can help me...

Sellafield 2 will release the same amount of radioactivity into the environment as Chernobyl every 4.5 years. One of these radioactive substances, Krypton 85, will cause death and skin cancer.

Date: 29 Sep 1999 08:50:09 -0700 (PDT) I don't think the older stuff sound outdated at all. It might sound old sometimes, but that is not the same. The Mix, on the other hand, is really outdated. --- Olivier Lpauente wrote: > I was wondering how much of KW do people think > sounds outdated if at all? > Computer world and Man machine still sound very > fresh but what about Tour de > France or even TEE?.

Sequencers were discussed in some details a few weeks ago, so you will find some useful stuff in the archives (look around 21st - 22nd August). I'll add something about them to the FAQ at some point. Which, by the way, you should have a look at before posting: you'll find your vocoder question answered there, for example.
