one thing a computer can do that most humans can't is be sealed up in a cardboard box and sit in a warehouse
I saw them live earlier this year with their 3D visual setup and it was mind blowing, I highly recommend seeing them live.

My favorite song is Computer Love <3

Kraftwerk is pretty fun to listen to but they get old pretty quickly.

Computer World is a good album, and it's kinda funny Coldplay completely ripped them off with that one song.

Coldplay actually got permission from Kraftwerk to use the melody from "Computer Love" on their song, "Talk."

i can appreciate kraftwerk and what they did but i feel like you kind of have to be an early 80s computer poindexter to actively be into them

The old records are pretty aged but were important for just about all electronic music that came after. Anyway, they don't stop working on their music.

The Mix versions of songs are a good update too. I have a harder time listening to the original albums anymore, even though I grew up listening to with The Man Machine blasting in my childhood home.

It kind of is. Although I do think that Coldplay took it and made a beautiful song, it's kind of unfortunate that most people who hear it will never realize where the tune originates from.

Edit: Allegedly, Chris Martin contacted them (through their lawyers) to request permission to sample "Computer Love" and got just a piece of paper with "Yes" written on it.

Television is the retina
of the mind's eye.
80's rap used Kraftwerk samples in like every other song. In retrospect, I'd say Kraftwerk was one of the most influential musical groups in the last 40 years.
