When Trans Europe Express and Computer World arrived in the US in 1977 and 1981, a DJ sampled the riff from "TEE" and the drum beat from "Numbers" by reproducing them with synthesizers and similar sounding drum samples, and mixed them together into one song. It is Africa Bambaataa and his (in)famous piece with Kraftwerk samples is called "Planet Rock". For most listeners at the time, this song was an innovation, but for Karl Bartos, it was a homage and a rip-off at the same time. Karl's response: he both remixed his song and called Africa Bambaataa a "bastard" for sampling his drum beat on "Numbers". For the latter part, Ralf Hütter allegedly reacted the same to Jay-Z due to a producer of him sampling the bassline from "The Man Machine" without permission during a mail correspondence with Coldplay. Not only Africa Bambaataa, but also other hip hop artists got influenced by Kraftwerk with Moses Pelham being the most particular case. In 1997, he produced a song for Sabrina Setlur entitled "Nur Mir" with a sample from Metal On Metal. Ralf sued him later for sampling from his work without requesting permission. Although versions of "Nur Mir" including the sample are forbidden now, the lawsuit is still active. Rumours have it that Moses Pelhalm punched on Ralf's eye during late 2015. This has not been confirmed, but it seems plausible since he once broke Stefan Raab's nose (German TV moderator) for making fun of Pelham's work. Now addressing the concert, Kraftwerk was still plagued with technical difficulties (Isn't it typical for Kraftwerk's gigs?). The curtains refused to close automatically, so, Florian did it manually during the encores. One attendee reported that Florian had problems with his handheld instrument during Pocket Calculator. There is video footage of this concert available and last time I watched it, I didn't notice anything strange. It was just his typical moves he always made. A day later, they were supposed to play a short concert at the Free Tibet Festival in Washington D. C., but it was cancelled due to bad wether. The planned, but cancelled appearence at the festival didn't leave them without consequences. In 2013, Kraftwerk were invited to play at the Strawberry Music Festival in Beijing, China as headliner on April 29th. Chinese authorities first checked if they were involved in political activities against the CCP and discovered that they had plans to perform at a festival promoting Tibetan independence. Entry into China was immediatly forbidden for Kraftwerk afterwards. __________________________________________ In its original form (before the home remastering), this recording is of decent quality. It is muffled and has short, minor distortions in a few songs, but the frequency range goes up to the limit of human ears and there is lively reverb which is a plus point. __________________________________________ Copyright Disclaimer: Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship and research.
