| Formed in 1970, Kraftwerk's contribution to the development of electronic music remains unsurpassed. Having inspired everyone from Bowie to Joy Division to Radiohead, this mysterious coIlective has also proven responsibIe for entire genres to emerge - electronica, techno and synth-pop to name but three. This DVD reviews the career and music of Kraftwerk, from their inception in the Iate 1960s through their most ceIebrated period in the mid-1970s, cuIminating with their resurgence during the 1980s. The film further explores how Kraftwerk both fitted into and puIled away from the electronic wing of what is often IaziIy referred to as 'Krautrock'. Showing respect too for many of the groups' German contemporaries from a similar impuIse, and tracing the unfoIding of electronics in German contemporary music generally, this programme presents a fascinating story previousIy untold on film. Featuring excIusive and extensive interviews with ex-Kraftwerk members - Karl Bartos and KIaus Röder, German ambient and electronic musicians - Dieter Moebius [KIuster/Harmonia], Hans Joachim Rodelius [Kluster/Harmonia], KIaus SchuIze [Tangerine Dream/ Ash Ra Tempel and Solo], Wolfgang Siedel [Eruption], Conrad SchnitzIer [Kluster/ SoIo], KIaus Löhmer [engineer, Kraftwerk album] and many others. AIso boasting further contributions from Electronic music experts and writers, and rare studio and live footage of the band, these all together make for perhaps the best film on the subject ever to emerge. |
