Yeah, I know it is slighly off topic, but do these guys from Kraftwerk still have it, or don't they have it anymore? If you ask me it is a bloody fun-fucking-fantastic record. And to proof it is on topic: "I had two members of Kraftwerk in this flat one time," LX remembers. "They sat cross-legged on the floor and said: 'Vot is this thing called DJing all about then?' They were exactly as you would expect: black shirts and ties, very serious. They didn't accept the joint I offered them. But without Kraftwerk, I can't imagine what modern music would be like. Techno, which has been the mainstay of dance music for the last 15 years, stems entirely from them." VOT A RECORD! Felix

They did not sit on the fuckin floor and ask wht dj'ing is And neither were they the only people to make electronic music If anything tom dissevelt is the earliest example I have heard Of orchestrated modern electronic music from 1957 Alex is just a clueless tosser He probably cant even remember his own name he smokes so much Little own how much of other orb writers money he has spent -- )) (( c[_] bLiP www.justablip.co.uk -----Original Message----- From: orb-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:orb-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of aunty Sent: 06 August 2003 14:41 To: 'What were the skies like when you were young?'

I'm sick of people crawling up Kraftwerk's arse myself; they had their glaring precedents like just about every other band out there. Now Raymond Scott--THERE was a pioneer, not just some quartet of wonks who played recycled German folk music on synthesisers and goddamn flutes. grr! Kuzza At 02:41 PM 8/6/2003 +0100, you wrote:
