Big fan here.
We own quite some of Kraftwerk's work.

R.I.P. Mr Schneider...

I saw them live in their early days and later on at two festivals. At one of these festivals the opening track was “we are the robots”. Still gives we goosebumps thinking about it...very loud but clean sound enveloping the audience like a blanket...feeling it in every fiber of your body. A visceral tsunami of sound...absolutely glorious.
