check out anthony rother's latest album 'simulationszeitalter' (or any other
release for that matter) on electrolux. plenty of kraftwerk-esque gimmiks
and kitschy as hell. other recommendations would perhaps include: japanese
telecom, elecktroids and ultradyne. they all have that distinct 80's
funky-machines electropop feeling to them
