Please correct me if I'm wrong (I have not read the book yet) but Wolfgang Fluer's I Was A Robot claims he played drums on this very track. Furthermore, there is a judicial contentious about this subject, isn't there? DER AUTOMAT

It was mainly done using a MiniMoog-Synthesizer, which is monophonic. Drumming was made by Ralf Hütter and Florian Schneider-Esleben.
