The guys from Kraftwerk said the want to release their all albums again. that includes LP''s : "autobahn", "radio-activity", "trans-europa express", "mensch machine", "computer welt", "electric cafe", "the mix" and latest "tour de france soundtracks".
the first one, ( dunno which one tho ) will be re-released in may ( probably in the middle of the month or so )
great opportunity to check them if you are interested in best oldschool electronics.

apparently no bonus tracks :(
i think bonus tracks at the end of albums are never a good thing, but in this case it would have been nice to have had some of the 12" mixes that you can only (well, almost only) get with slsk.

Hell, I got bored with them years ago, Tangerine Dream, now that's a different story, much better use of synthesisers IMO,
Kraftwerk were using hardwired Moogs and stuff on a lot of their albums whilst the Dream used modulars.

I'm looking forward to a remastered version of "The Mix". That's Kraftwerk at their best.

as far as i know, there haven't been any legitimate releases of the first three (kraftwerk, kraftwerk (2) and ralf & florian) for years. i think they've been tolerated bootlegs. the copies i have are mastered from the vinyl.
when i first heard about this, i thought that there were going to be a small number of bonus tracks (though it was acknowledged that there was very little unreleased material).
can't recall the source, unfortunately.

The Mix is a far cry from Man Machine and Computer World. This is indeed good news. I'm afraid I'll end up buying them all again.

I could have sworn I saw one of the first two albums in Musicworld once, that stylized pylon is unforgettable. Haven't seen it since.

the first three albums have apparently been relentlessly bootlegged...
they have not been legitimately licensed, i think.

Well, the 12345678 promo has been out ages, and that has all the albums in their remastered state. But it is very, very limited, and sells for about £350 or so.
I have the mp3s at least, but it'd be nice to own the real thing.
