A Pioneer of the Electronic Music Landscape : RIP Florian Schneider

I own two Kraftwerk records, Autobahn and Trans-Europe Express. I love many Kraftwerk records; like Kraftwerk 2, Radio Activity, The Man-Machine, Computer World, and the single “Tour de France” thanks to Breakin’.

The dreams were of a couple different varieties; can’t remember the combination to my lock, can’t remember how to get to […]
