Hello Stephany,
Great post! I find it interesting that many of the most influential bands and albums of our time were great musical experimenters, and Kraftwerk was one of the best. It sort of blows my mind that they actually created many of the electronic instruments that they used. I would have to agree with you, that the members of Kraftwerk probably scoff at the luxuries that we producers have in regards to the ease of being able to create electronic sounds with a few clicks of a mouse. At the same time, I would also have to imagine that this fills them with a great sense of pride, because without the innovations that the group formed, many of these tools would not be so widely used. However, even with all of the power of our DAW’s, software instruments, and hardware, we can still think like Kraftwerk and try to find new ways of creating interesting and innovative sounds through musical experimentation.
