[...] Kraftwerk, 90 minutes enjoying the sound and visual perfection of
their more than 36 years as fathers of Techno. A meeting with history, as
organizers of the festival announced. Kraftwerk visited Zaragoza in their
tour of 1991 (Madrid and Barcelona for last time in April 2004). They
renewed their roster with two of their recovered and updated classics;
Computer Love and Showroom Dummies. [...]

[...] Fortunatelly it was a live-act not a dj-set. [...] Bartos' set was in
the middle: two keyboards, a lot of effects racks and a microphone, to his
right in the Dave Anderson's set it was another synth, more racks and the
impressive vocoder full of cables, and to his left the Karsten Binar's set,
in which two MAC laptops (as opposed to Kraftwerk with PC) stood out from
which he controled the videoscreens. The fascinating journey started with
Numbers and finished with Neon Lights, throughout an and a half hour we
levitated with The Model, Trans Europa Express, Pocket Calculator, The
Telephone Call, The Robots, ..., mostly in German version, so as songs from
his solo album: The Camera, I'm The Message, 15 Minutes of Fame, (the CD
Communication practically). We missed tracks from his previous band Elektric
Music, with the impressive 1993 CD Esperanto, a work full of ideas from his
previous stage with Kraftwerk, whom he left in 1991. Moreover everything was
perfect; Bartos was bursting with kindness, audiovisual part rose to the
occassion and the best, it sounded "live" (with some bugs included),
something it does not happen with Kraftwerk (except for some fail of their
PCs).
