A 41 minute mix of songs from the most influential group of musicians
in modern music, Germany's Kraftwerk (literally, power station).  Their
contributions laid the foundations for modern dance, pop, and hip-hop.  
While electronic instruments were used in music before the emergence of
Düsseldorf's synthesized quartet, Kraftwerk mixed it with pop and rock
sensibilities, making the niche genre easily accessible by the
mainstream.  The group was not without their eccentricities.  Nearly 40
years after their debut album little is actually known about the group
and visitors to their secretive Kling Klag studios are rarely welcomed.

Kraftwerk's philosophy of man versus machine in the creation of music
would later be cited by Techno father Derrick May as an inspiration,
and certainly affected the sound of Hip-Hop.  Most notably "Trans
Europe Express" and "Numbers" formed the basis of "Planet Rock;" "The
Man Machine" has been sampled numerous times, from the Fearless 4 to MC
Lyte, to Jay-Z.

It should also be noted that Kraftwerk's songs often contained subtle
social messages as evidenced in "The Robots," "Radioactivity,"
"Computer World," and many others.
