"The Robots" By Kraftwerk/E.C. 3000's Influences




From Kraftwerk: Classic 1977, Kraftwerk videoclip of The Robots. Kraftwerk, the pioneers of electronic music.

From Wikipedia: The Robots" (originally Die Roboter) is a single by the influential German electronic music pioneers, Kraftwerk, released in 1978. The single and its B-side, "Spacelab", both appeared on the band's seventh album, The Man-Machine. However, the songs as they appear on the single were scaled down into shorter versions.[1] In 1991, a remix of the song was issued as a single from the band's remix album The Mix.

Kraftwerk aren't in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. A lot of bands I like aren't in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as you will see in the next few posts.

Their sound is a combo of electric, classical, disco and pop. A mix they pull off very well.
