Ralf Hutter stumbled upon his father's soul records and discovered Sly & the Family Stone. The album "Stand!" had the song "Sex Machine" which sounded like a weird Robotnik screeching over fascinating rhythms on side 2 for 13 minutes. He dreams of recreating that experience and grows up creating the successful "Kraftwerk." Both artists disappear from public and are considered legends for the next few centuries. Sorry, that's all I got. amir

were the characters are meant to be Ralf, Florian, Wolfgang and Karl and all I need now is a good plot..
Does anyone know any intresting myths about the band that i could base the plot on? It doesn´t have to be realistic but it would be cool if it could relate to some real kraftwerk-myth. But realism as I said isn´t important and it would be cool with some kind of conspiracy-theory related to the band, robots, radioacitivity, FBI and Scotland Yard or whatever makes a good story..
Ralf is hurt in a mysterious cycling accident. He and the mysterious Florian withdraw to their secret laboratory. Wolfgang and Karl disappear. They are replaced by R&F and are not spoken of again. Rumours circulate that their history has been "erased". Years later, Karl is found, but babbles about watching Charlie Chaplin on television, his "15 minutes of fame" and Messerschmidts. Posing as a furniture designer, Fluer lies low, but then bursts back into public life, threatening to "tell all"...
