The original and the best STILL! This is their iconic track that is as fresh and contemporary as ever! The Gods of synthesised rock and the influence to OMD, Depeche Mode and many more. Fabulous!
Ralf Hutter's concentration! Wow. It's like watching a great surgeon perform his work, or a great sculptor doing his job. What a genius.The audience and the entire music community should bow to him! Live forever, Ralfbot!
So much for the theory that Kraftwerk just hits a button from their stations and pretends to play. As I see it, there is a ton of werking going on up there. That should shut those people up for a while. Would love to see an entire show from that angle and close ups. Great video.. Thanks for posting!
It's more similar to Rock Band, actually. The song's bpm is set in stone due to the video synchronization, and some of the loops are pre-set, it's up to them to just hit them at the right time and do the vocals. There is a bit of a room for improvisation, but not too much.
"It's more similar to rock band, actually." Actually, no, it's not at all like Rock Band (a shitty video game where your controller is shaped like a guitar and you simply press the buttons to match the screen). There is actually *a lot* of room for improvisation in most of their songs.
It is not about talking shit about Kraftwerk. I got all their albums, singles and CD versions. i listen to the song regularly on my Ipod - no one is saying they are not talented or they are fakes, far from it. The songs are all classics. The only problem, for many, is that there is no difference between what we see here, and having everything pre set on your Mac, hitting a button and the whole track comes out on playback. If you want to pay for that, no problem, as long as you enjoy it.
Grew up listening to this and I've been inspired ever since to try and be as alternative. Totally amazing music that needs to be continuously listened to !!!!
A long but enjoyable version indeed. Sometimes stage performance will be more attractive than the original version. My deep respect to Kraftwerk from India. My all time favorite band.
The technology has unquestionably progressed since the Autobahn graced the world. I still find this POV revealing. Ralf (#1) has the full musical keyboard and the "live" vocals, #2 has the mini, and ##3 and 4 each lacks one but has a full alphanumeric keyboard. All appear to process "effects" and volume, I suspect #2 "masters" the tempi, #3 masters the volume, ##3 and 4 sync up (or with) the video. I'd wager #4 orders the pizza, and I daresay by concert's end the group earns one for each! And when Florian was #4 I had no doubt he had no interest in pizza but made sure everything WORKED.
Ralf Hutter the Godfather pioneer of modern 20century Electronic music showing everybody how to do it " LIVE " its like an one Man show since he does all the Synthy/Keyboard electronics/Vocoder playing himself...???? And bowing down to say thanks to the lucky Guest"s coming to the Show...? A true Legend pioneer...? Last man Standing …? Amazing to see he is having fun too giving pleasure to the listeners...? Wowwww ...
good to see them tweek song a bit and have fun tone bending, and the visual guy on the end live video jamming . bring back wolfgang Flur and karl bartos for a reunion ,if this is not the last tour i get to see them in Los Angeles . ON July 5th 2022 at the shrine auditorium
Dos melhores vídeos que já vi dos KRAFTWORK! É espetacular ver os instrumentos que eles utilizam nos dias de hoje! Muito Obrigado por partilhares este documento histórico!
Agora acredito que eles tocam de verdade. Ótimas imagens. O Kling Klang funcionando com novos equipamentos. Gostaria de saber que tipo de sintetizadores são. Longa vida aos Krafwerk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s a very cool angle of view! Wonder how the videographer managed to do this video this long time ... Ralf would never give his permission doing that ... 😉
@@-oioioioioi- Estimado, yo no subi contenido ni de 12 monos ni de los Simpsons. Subi una obra sinfonica de Astor Piazzolla que Terry Gilliam uso en su película (que yo ni siquiera había visto al momento de hacer el video). Le pido por favor que no me moleste con estupideces, gracias.
Lou Lami Hélas, il n'y en a plus qu'un seul "original", Ralf Hütter. Les trois autres n'ont rien à voir avec le vrai groupe Kraftwerk. Kraftwerk ce n'est pas Ralf Hütter tout seul, c'est Ralf Hütter, avec Florian Schneider, Karl Bartos et Wolfgang Flür. Sans eux, le groupe ce n'est plus Kraftwerk. La qualité s'en ressent, et surtout plus aucune nouveauté depuis le départ des autres ...
+Dominique REGNAULT-COMPAIN je ne suis pas d'accord, Kraftwerk c'est plus qu'un groupe, c'est une entité, peu importe qui sont les membres. Bien sûr que non il n'y a aucune nouveauté, leur temps est passé, ils ne vont pas faire de nouvelles chansons. Mais ils ont parfaitement su s'adapter aux différentes époques et modifier leurs chansons pour les remettre au goût du jour
Dominique REGNAULT-COMPAIN oulah je n'ai que la vingtaine et je ne prétends pas avoir votre connaissance du groupe mais je trouve que malgré tout ils ont vraiment su s'adapter, en "remixant" leur morceaux ils ont su rester dans l'ère du temps tout en restant fidèle à leur musique. Cependant je ne connais pas bien l'histoire du groupe ni même les membres
When the artists express that no photos or videos be taken at the concerts, & people spit right back in their faces by not bothering to respect their wishes...
they never use playback, they just made it easier. back then, dozens of notes are hanging on their consoles with the settings for each song. with the digital era, you can now save all settings on the computer with only one press on a button to load this settings.
Very rare angle ! its a veritable iPad fest Ralph plays a 'real' synth but im astounded by the guy to Raphs left using a crappy £40 keyboard controler, and not 1 mac in sight !
+kvfive it's called muscle memory + coordination (used to play all instruments). If you think they are not "playing" the music, you are missing out on the riches nuances of same songs played at different dates (which definitely sound different). I know it's hard to get over "seeing" what's happening on the video, but do yourself a favor if you love Kraftwerk music and let your ears be the judge.
You're the one who went to shit, they always were cutting edge in technology. in the 80's they already said they were doing digital cause the world would go in that direction. They are being consequent with themselves.
An absolute classic nothing can beat this track
fascinating to see each one's different setup... very cool how each one operates his gear like a master
The original and the best STILL! This is their iconic track that is as fresh and contemporary as ever! The Gods of synthesised rock and the influence to OMD, Depeche Mode and many more. Fabulous!
Can't stop watching Kraftwerk's videos,the affects are amazing and colourful. I ❤️ their music 🎹
End is the best, Ralf.

sorry but nothing shuts up ignorant people.
Didn't know that was a theory. If you look, I'm sure you'll find that people who say such things generally have no clue what they're talking about.

I just love the facial expressions of Ralf he really looks like he's getting into the groove😁
This is the most sprightly, cheerful rendition of this song I've ever heard! So much fun!
Thank you for sharing! 😄✌
Your welcome
Got the pleasure of seeing this tour !....Kraftwerk are THEE KINGS.
We were here, i took a friend to this concert to show what electronic music means... 👊🏾
Great footage! Fascinating to see behind the podiums!
And to think they've been making this music since the late 60s. Icons of icons.
And now they are in the rock and roll hall of fame!!
Love the little toot of the horn at the end..
Love the vocoder voice!!!

Was there, first time ive seen Kraftwerk and they did all my favourites including a full length version of Autobahn - Awesome
I had hoped they'd blend in elements of THIS performance with The 3D Catalogue.. Was a particularly moving performance in spots :)
I agree 👍
A very Interesting insight into the way Kraftwerk‘s play! Trank you very much!

omg .... KRAFTWERKGASM .... It's a thrill-rush to see close ups of how they are playing this.

Nice angles. I have no idea what they are doing! Was there for nights 1 & 2 only

That was really good!
Very rare for KW to encore.
Well I'll be! This is the very first time I ever saw Ralf Hutter smile after this encore of 'Autobahn'.
Kraftwerk. "Each has their part to Play!"

back in the 90' and 00' there were more samples, now it's mostly vst (i guess)
They do not play live, all tracks are recorded in advance before the performance with some differences from the originals !!!

LAME and overproduced not inspiring!
Go and listen to Enter Sandman or Smells like teen spirit for the 500th time today.
Uhhhhmmm.... o.k.....
I'll now go back to the original version. LOL
(Sorry, but this is bad.)
AI , Trans-Humanism comes to mind. Abortions, drugs... just nasty
