Karl & Wolfgang on Swedish TV
by Lech 28 Mar '02

28 Mar '02

The following mainly concerns folks who live in Scandinavia and receive the Swedish state telly channel SVT1 or SVT2. On Monday, April 1st, SVT2 will feature Kraftwerk in their ongoing series Pop i fokus. The episode will apparently feature Karl Bartos discussing the career, music and the myths, while Wolfgang Flür will take the viewers on a tour of Düsseldorf. The show is broadcast at half past seven in the evening, rerun on Wednesday (April 3rd) by SVT1 at ten past one in the afternoon, and again on Thursday (April 4th) by SVT2. -- Champagne for my real friends. Real pain for my sham friends.

>When acetates are made (I've understood they're not always made?), it's for the same purpose, to check the transfer from the master tape. Hi KW-Fans, I have the mastertape of Autobahn.

acetate
by Oystein Moe 27 Mar '02

27 Mar '02

1. An acetate of a Kraftwerk single. Nice one, Peo, well cool 2. An acetate of an UNRELEASED Kraftwerk single. Corblimey Peo, I'm drooling over my keyboard. 3. An acetate of an unreleased debut Kraftwerk single... fekkin' A. I'm lost for words. 4. Early singles, normally pre-1964, were in mono. I have the South African Autobahn single (no wait, do I? I'm asking you, Peo, one of us has it...), that's in mono, so quite possibly, the single would have been a mono only release. So I don't believe that's why it wasn't released. 5. I thought acetates were either hi-qual virgin vinyl or wax, and that the metal discs are called, er, metal dics? Is this _one_ two-sided record, made of metal, or could it be that what you have bought is the matrix which they were going to press the records from? 6. Is there a catalogue number? It would be intriguing to check whether it is pre- or post- the Autobahn single. Could it be they were intending to use it as a b-side perhaps? Like Kristallo and Vom Himmel Hoch in the UK? 7. Can we have a scan sometime soon? 8. Are you sure this is intended to be played with a normal pick-up? I'm not sure I'd risk it... 9. It's pretty normal that they press up test pressings before releasing a record, I had one of Sisters Of Mercy's Floodland LP where the sound quality was pretty low, this mix must have been rejected prior to release. John has a tp with a different mix of Neonlights. But I'm confused about the metal here; Peo, please pull me out of the dark! :) Cor. Where do you get in touch with dealers of acetates at all? I hardly ever see any, with any artists. Can I ask how much you paid the dude? Anyway, congratulations on the finest new entry to your collection.
