>why 35 minutes? IF they release another disc, i hope it will be a double-cd >with multimedia's.... or how do you explain, working for over 11 years on >ONE album???? *rotflol* Their longest album(s) of new material in their entire back catalogue is 42 minutes (Autobahn, Trans Europe Express). I don't mind a short album, it is good to listen all the way through and the emphasis is on quality. I cannot believe they might have spent 11 years on one album. They are playing with us. Now ask me how they play with us. Rob _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com

My intention wasn't to offend you ;) I rather enjoy learning such small details personally I don't care for the use of the term "krautrock" The information I post is compiled data from different sources some are more reliable than others, in this case the source IS reliable if something I post is not from reliable source or if I am unsure where the information came from I always let others know. I'll cross reference the information you provided.

I know this album is 11 years old, the mix (even though it's worthy part of the kw discography) is nothing more than a collection of old songs from kw's catalogue that were simply update to the current dance trends of when that project took place -- this is NOT the cutting-age material that can be found on their originals. btw I don't care for the yodeling on the "newer" autobahn and why did they leave off the name checks iggy pop & david bowie on tee? as pointed out by omegachance. Once again it seems like their trying to erase their past, (too many examples to mention here) replacing heads on albums, leaving off names on re-releases etc.

by Oh Jay 07 Jun '02

guess why ??? ;-) because u have MUCH_MORE options in the kraftwerkfans group than on this list !!! *hehehe* ;-))) only for example : i've jus' created two new polls there ( for members : http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kraftwerkfans/polls ;-) , where u can vote about the followin' questions : - what's your favorite song or track on kw's "the mix" album ??? - what songs or traxxx are missin' on kw's "the mix" album or should be incl. on a "mix 2" album ??? ( u have a multiple choice in this poll !!! ;-) well ... this is jus' a borin' mailin' list , which simply has no poll option & therefore people will endlessly discuss about their favorite songs or traxxx on kw's "the mix" album !!! *yawn* :-o however ... simply enjoy the polls in the kraftwerkfans group ... if u are already a member , or jus' become a new member & vote immediately , fellows !!! *G+* ;-) many greetinx , oh jay ;-) ~*~ jvr network program - june 2002 : http://mitglied.lycos.de/cybernetx/program.html ( incl. live stream via internet ) studio webcam - live : http://stream.ok-bremen.de/studio.html radio show archive : http://friends.schallreflektor.com/ohjay/alien_disco playlist archive : http://mitglied.lycos.de/cybernetx/playlists brand new website release soon @ http://www.jointventureradio.net & also http://www.jointventureradio.org *~\^/~*

Sennheiser, Vocoders, Kraftwerk, and Privileges
by waynegriffin 07 Jun '02

07 Jun '02

Greetings Everyone... I am an electronic musician and I am deeply influenced by Kraftwerk. I am most infatuated by their use of vocoders. Apparently, they used the Sennheiser- Does anyone know in detail the story about why and how they came into adopting this specific one? It seems that this particular unit was rather expensive at the time- how did kraftwerk manage to obtain all of their equipments? Were their parents rich? [w]

Krautrock was term that was coined by an english music editor to describe the music coming out of germany during the early 70's -- the same way the term electronica came into use, coined by an american to categorize the many different styles of electronic music I preferrer to refer to the actual style when discussing the type of music i'm writing about. I think Organisation is fantastic the music I believe is called experimental prog-rock what makes this recording unique (for kraftwerk) is its free form improvisation and very strong late 60's influences, It has a lot of unusual instruments I would like learn more about.
