Kraftwerk

Kraftwerk has received a worthy BBC film documentary, but without an actual statement from Ralf Hütter, the only remaining member bez. founder of the band founded in 1968. "Hütter" or internationally better communicated "Hutter" will reach aight/zero in 2026!

Robots age as well known only in the exchange of the parts. Kraftwerk will probably not live to see this, and so Kraftwerk has long since reached death, purely in terms of content, important prophecies of the future are missing from their catalog, such as the imminent revolution in biotechnology or energy production. But they don't have to prove themselves anymore, because their work and vision is unique in the history of music. "I am the musician with calculator in hand" hits the nerve of the current time perfectly and the intelligent robots are just coming. In addition, Kraftwerk was always a band that romanticized technology. The images are clearly structured and futuristic, their melodies tend to be thoughtful but hopeful, which results in an idiosyncratic communication. In fact, Kraftwerke belongs more in the gallery than on the stage, and so one day there will be a concert with 4 Robots, which the founders will watch smiling from another dimension. Kraftwerk will then be immortal!

L'Altromondo - from another world

It is 1965 and the Piper Club opens its doors in Rome. It will be the first club with experimental audiovisual expression and the precursor of the large-scale dance palace as we know it today.

Pop art united with music! It was followed at the end of the 60's by the Mach 2 in Florence, the Piper Club in Turin and the L'Altro Mondo in Rimini. The latter is the only one to survive to the present day, making it one of the original clubs that called themselves "Radical Disco". Derived from "Radical Design," the movement was driven primarily by architects who were ardent advocates of the new technology and advocated the creation of new meeting spaces through light, music and performance art.

Is Daft Punk a scam?

Is Daft Punk a scam? Critics accuse the duo of relying too heavily on sampling – using existing music pieces and rearranging them.

But is that art or theft? Sampling is a well-established technique in electronic music, though it often operates in a legal gray area. Daft Punk always obtained licenses and credited original artists, but some fans wonder if their hits would exist without those samples. The fact remains: They transformed old sounds into something entirely new – and that is an art form


Max Berlin

French, do it better! Mais no: les Belges! One could think it was Serge Gainsbourg who talks lasciviously into the microphone.

But no, not a Frenchman, but Max Berlin aka Jean-Pierre Cerrone from 1978! "Dream Disco" probably does not mean anything to many people. Nevertheless, there was this genre a short time. The song was produced by the brother of Jean-Marc Cerrone, who in turn worked a lot with Giorgio Moroder (I feel Love). Rare single by the way and very sexy!

Pure Song-Love ❤️

Pure song-love at Glastonbury Festival – with Lewis Capaldi and an audience creating a memorable moment!

Capaldi, who openly lives with Tourette Syndrome, a neurological condition that causes uncontrollable tics, struggled during his performance due to his condition. However, when he faced difficulties, the crowd stepped in, singing along loudly, compassionately, and with full energy. This magical moment showed how music unites people and how strong the support from his fans is. Capaldi was visibly moved and grateful. Glastonbury once again proved: music is a powerful community that carries us through all challenges.
