Kraftwerk were the Godfathers of Techno, and all other electronic music....I remember when I first heard “Autobahn” in 1974, totally blew me away, unlike anything I ever heard before.

There are two songs that stick out in my head from Kraftwerk, those being Ruckzuck (1970, used as the theme from “Newton’s Apple” on PBS, illegally too) and Das Model (sounds 80s but came out in 78).

Ruckzuck was from their “Krautrock” phase . . . they got some amazing sounds out of a Hammond organ and a flute.
