- A live rarity from the early days of Kraftwerk.
Recorded live for Radio Bremen in June 1971, whilst Ralf Hutter was taking a 6 month brief break from the band, and instead features the Rother/Dinger/Schneider line up.
This is a very hard rocking krautrock number.
Featuring:
FLORIAN SCHNEIDER - flute with effects.
MICHAEL ROTHER - guitar.
KLAUS DINGER - drums.
Pre - Neu! days and this track gives a taster of what was to come from Neu! in the future.
Eventually Dinger and Rother would leave KRAFTWERK to form NEU!.
Later on in the year Ralf Hutter would rejoin KRAFTWERK and electronic history would be made there after.
Reason that Ralf Hutter did NOT participate during this brief moment of the band (late 1970-mid 1971)is apparently he wanted to complete his Studies. Since mid-1971 Hutter was back.
It is rumoured that a drummer called Charley Weiss and a bassist/cellist (now an artist) Eberhard Krannemann also collaborated around this time, but not on this recording at least.
Sadly Klaus Dinger died in March 2008.
there exists a parallel universe in which kraftwerk never invented techno but invented stoner metal instead
They invented all modern “indie” music
@@merlhemlok007 what lmao
LOL!!!
@@merlhemlok007saying that makes it sound like mac demarco playing a tubon keytar and synthesizers
Robots gathered in their masses.....
Just like Dummies at showroom masses...
Brilliant remark!
…Just like androids in dark glasses!”
...and to think there is actually only one guitar. The other sound is Florian playing a friggin' flute!
I don't think your ready for this but your kids are going to love it
Germany's response to Black Sabbath's "Iron Man"
Maxwell M. yap
+João Paulo Calvet ya, ya. Ya,ya,ya,ya.
+AI Grey Hivemind No, no. No,no,no,no.
Why, was I not right or, right, rather- the first time?
+Maxwell M. Why not?
Wow, that was... unexpected. As a big fan of Sabbath, I m astonished that Kraftwerk had this kind of sound back in 70s
The first couple of minutes is what it will sound like when the machines come for us all.
These early Kraftwerk sounds are just insane! I love it.
The best period, sadly pretty unknown and scarcely recorded.
Incredible sound. And I found the album Ralf und Florian at a flea market. Bought it directly! Barely played... No wonder lol
@@johnssonsmixed8303 No wonder? It's Kraftwerk's best record.
Ananas Symphonie is from it and i love it
My favorite track by Kraftwerk!
That's Kraut Rock at it's best.
"Heavy Metal Kids" became something completely different some years later.
I was floored when I first heard this. Stoner rock has been around longer than I thought
Then, they went on to pioneer electronic music
How can you know that stoner rock is a genre and not know that Black Sabbath is a thing?
Ive never listened to Kraftwerk since now. I think I will never listen to something other for the next few days. This group really got me
+Mike Ze its addictive for sure! ;) good to know that Kraftwerk got a new fan
They really got me in 1982. I knew, then, I had catching up to do. It's been a great 36-year ride.
Find the band Neu! The guitarist and drummer formed Neu after leaving Kraftwerk, and a lot of their material is in this style.
MICHAEL ROTHER is a Genius
You just gotta Loooove the way it starts all being senseless machine noice and slowly, unnoticedly, slips into awesome rythm and music, but without ever ceising to be noisy! Just damn brilliant.
Ultra-heavy for 2021!!!
THIS. In my Top Ten Of all time favorite album's.
Totally a direction I wish they had followed more.. but really I am not one to complain. Listen to it often.
... a cross between NEU and early Sabbath!!!! KYUSS too!!!!
UN-FUCKING-BELIEVABLE!!!!!!
This rocks harder than doors!!!!
THANK YOU for posting!!!!!!!!!!!!
how good is this for 1971 the more you listen the more you like.awesome
the picture in the video shows the electric power station (kraftwerk) of volkswagen in wolfsburg.
Thanks so much for posting this. Have recently been discovering early Kraftwerk and also some Neu!. Gives me odd cravings to go back to Germany for a while. Can't explain why, it just does.
Not what I was expecting at all! Not being a Kraftwerk aficionado I wasn't really aware of this phase of the bands music.
Frickin' amazing!!!!
Wow! I have never heard Kraftwerk like that before. Amazing "guitar" sound.
proto-metal riffs (circa 1968), so to speak. i love this rare Kraftwerk recording. good thing you noticed it. :)
1971
ICH LIEBE ES! They were so completely different in the early days!
Thank you for giving us access to such a wonderful Kraftwerk rarity. Once again their position as pioneering wunderkinds of electronica is confirmed.
Journalist: so what drugs do you take?
Kraftwerk: a mix of lsd, diesel and plutonium.
I am expecting it to go "I AM IRONMAN!" as the opening and the cords sound VERY much like Black Sabbath's tune.
OMFG! What a gem! Im from Bremen and this blows my Mind!
LOVE IT!! Thank you for uploading this.🖤🖤
ozzy should have went to kraftwerk when he was canned by black sabbath and said were no gonna be called kraft sabbath
Great stuff! Went and saw these guys live. They're just as good now as they were all the way back then. They still fit into their tron suits too.
The best rock in the seventies was made in Germany. Can, Kraftwerk, neu...
I imagine this had something to do with Rother & Dinger leaving?
Ralf probably had a fit when he got back and heard what they'd been up to while he was away!
Awesome tune.
Pure genuine.
Magnifico, excelente, muchas gracias por su aporte musical. un saludo desde bogota colombia, suerte.
i play this for my neighbour. he has no choice in the matter.
Me too and him neither
Lucky neighbour!
Taran Burns - job well done!
I was 2. I'm glad I am alive when a song like this exists.
Kraftwerk's early stuff is just as interesting as their later music.
very good...............................................................................
Shout-out to my friend Kevin Guerrero for introducing me to this song back in high school, even though I was the one who introduced him to Kraftwerk 😆 He put me on the path to being the Neu! fan I am today even if he doesn't know it.
Pop-oriented electronic music, that is. On the other side of the spectrum are such luminaries as Pierre Schaffer, Pierre Henry, Morton Subotnick, Charles Wuorinen, and their ilk. Peace.
Music Hall of Fame Classic
I love this tune. Awesome.
Insane !!!
Thanks we were looking for this the other day but didn't remember the title, hilarious and awesome
by listening that one i can really now say that early kraftwerk was an undisputed influence to the gods of stoner rock KYUSS, and it was nearly 20 years before they showed up.....Anyway, a fantastic tune!! And btw Kraftwerk was also awesome during the electronic era, not only with this song!
:)
Those harmonic noises around 2:50 remind me a lot of 90's KYUSS
Have you not heard of Black Sabbath?
This is a homage to them.
Kraftwerk RULES !!!!
*Kraftsabbath!!!*
i wish i could get a guitar tone that sick ugh
je ne connaissais pas ce morceau, superbe !
Uber ! love early Kraftwerk
I kind of liken this to Picasso's Rose period before he went Cubist. Both a demonstration of more traditional acumen before defining a totally new form of expression of their own.
The guitar work is already so grunge and heavy-like, it resembles (or precedes?) Neil Young. I once heard that Young was influenced by Kraftwerk, and he made an electronic LP himself too (much later).
I just re-opened my browser after it closed itself unexpectedly, and this started playing over the "Zorba the Greek" song. What. A. Trip.
man... this is amazing, hail them
This is more like Neuwerk than Kraftwerk !
Neu! Sabbath
They did, i have a live album by them (Kraftwerk) from about this time, it is full on heavy rock
It was the 70s man! We did all kinds o crazy things! 😆
I never herad this people before and I got amazed!! Tx for hooked it.
early stoner rock...sounds great
stonerific!
this shows you that a Krautrock/Techno band can kick ass!
Echte Klasse der Anfangsära dieser erfolgreichen Elektropoppgruppe.
Danke für die Verteilung des Stückes !
Can is so inspiring, man. You know what was one of the trippiest experiences of my life? I was skateboarding with Ege Bamyasi on my...er..I think that was still a CD walkman..anyways. Suddenly Damo Suzuki is standing right before me (and yes, I am absolutely 100% sure it was him, plus it was in Bonn, which fits). I rolled past him in slow motion, mouth open. It would have been so cool to stop and simply give him the earphones to show him how much his music is still appreciated in this Millenium.
And also the Beatles were such an astonishing band, lol!
Bach was such a great composer, duude!
Une telle modernité !!!!
This would be fucking amazing to hear as the soundtrack to a movie scene with two black leather motor cycle gangs fighting each other with switch blades, crowbars and switch blades. Somebody out there making a movie like that, please include this!
heavy metal was started by black sabbath in 1969 in my opinion. Can't find anything older than that with the real "sound" of heavy metal.
amazing stuff. been listening to Kraftwerk 4 a while, but didn't know about this stuff or thier relation to Neu!
I really like this sound. Too bad they didn’t do whole album, or some other band that would be in similar style, only I can think of is Chrome, but that’s more post-punk.
This song might very well be the point where electronic music splits from rock music. The Missing Link, if you will.
Heavy Metal-Machine!
Wow!!!
Das beste, was ich bis jetzt aus derr Frühzeit gehört hab.
In my dreams I hear Kraftwerk & LedZeppelin jam session
Holy Shit! This is fucking heavy for 1971!
Schwer zu glauben, dass diese Musik ist von Kraftwerk! Danke fürs Hochladen!
hell yeah i grew up with these guys and never heard this
It sounds like early black sabbath as the style of rock/metal KW are performing is "stoner rock", the metal style which black sabbath pioneered.
If you dig; Kyuss and Fu Manchu are other good examples of this style of rock/metal.
The distorted sound is actually a flute with bass guitar and drums. Who'd have thought!
I prefer this to their later stuff...... by a mile!!! I guess this style manifest itself in Neu!....
heavy kraut rock metallica!!
THANX
Unglaubliche Atmosphäre! Verdammt geil !!
Highly industrial. Great. ;)
AWESOME
Fantastic, I didn't have any idea of this old face of Kraftwerk, - They participated of the begining of Heavy Metal.
fantastic!!!
Awesome, thanks!!
Pas très connu comme titre mais c'est génial et ça fait du bien....
mind blowing...
I was thinking just the same.
Yeah its war of Pigs// Waiting for a Ozzy voice)
Fantastisch
"Pre - Neu! days and this track gives a taster of what was to come from Neu! in the future."
How come more of Neu's tracks don't sound anything like this?
Verdammt geiles zeug!
thumbs up if you ever head about Kraut rock before! This is a real music history of 60s and 70s.. fuck rolling stones, etc... This is real art.
This rules. I bet a lot of doom metal is inspired by this stuff.
I love you for uploading this.
Now thats what I call some Heavy Stuff!! (no capitalism)
@Gavin B. Amen. And everyone shall switch to DVORAK keyboards
DAMN! That was awesome!
