Hi Dirk, Does Herr Hutter und Herr Schneider know that you have the master tape?? They seem to be very protective of their work so beware!!!!!! As for everyone else asking Dirk about any new KW songs, then Im sure he will not tell us!! Secrecy is important!!!!!!

In my opinion, it is worth whatever a Kraftwerk fanatic would be prepared to pay for it...and considering there must be many wealthy Kraftwerk fans, I would speculate that it could run into four figures (English Pounds)?

Hi all Might be of interest to some of u. Just bought a mix album on Gigilo Records (Munich), 'American Gigilo' mixed by DJ Tiga. There's some fantastic stuff on this, very 80's electro with some heavy Kraftwerk references, Miss Kittin and The Hacker, Christopher Just, Marc Almond, Fischerspooner etc. One track amused me, 'DJ Naughty - Boing Bum Tschag' www.gigilo-records.de Shaun
