Die Stimme der Energie tönt nicht mehr...



2009.09.07 Greetings, brave New World!

Here is an new blog for you who might want to know the very delicate and sometimes mysterious wonders and anecdotes of how electronic music began and prospered from the late 1890ies... until the future.
ELEKTROGER[Ä]T
(pronounced in German) will provide you with a correct and informative technical discourse as well as esthetic ideas of Electronic Music.


Die Stimme der Energie tönt nicht mehr...

This blog oddly enough is born at the exact same day [2009.01.07] as Florian Schneider, electronic music pioneer and founder of KRAFTWERK sadly enough has announced that he has left a 40 year partnership with Ralf Hütter (sic).

I will shortly start ELEKTROGERÄT blogging, by giving you a collection of the information I´ve gathered and some qualified guessing of what music making in this very unusual style might have been like. I will also try to present what machines can be heard from the Kling Klang Studio, on the records of KRAFTWERK. And more especially I will focus on the process of achieving their unique music, rather than pinpointing a specific synthesizer creating this or that sound.
