I guess first I'd like to add that its a sad day when people havent heard any Kraftwerk cept for in a music lecture. The music of electronic artists cant particularily age save fora pattern progression within a genre(the use of specific sound type elements). I have some music from 4 years ago that sound still just as amazing no as it did when i first heard it. Quad on Kinetix is just 1 example. Kraftwerk among others like Jarre etc really should have a lot more exposure to todays youth, with the fact that their music is still listenable. I wonder why this isnt so.. any ideas?
