Connor: I loved this album! It's catchy, danceable, and yet certain songs - especially The Model - seem to have a dark, cold undercurrent that make me feel lonely
Classic album that flows seamlessly. Robots love it!
Okay, but not my cup of tea.
"Die Mensch-Maschine": a perfect distillation of the record. So much of the future is in these songs, especially the future of electronic music. Yet there's physicality, even humanity, in every beat. It's the soundtrack of a cyberpunk world we never got. That might be good, of course: The music is more challenging than the titular phrase, and that lost future has problems we moderns don't have to face. Practically, moving to these rhythms works, but feels less than freeing. For other electronic music, that might be a flaw. Here, though, it feels like The Point.
Beautiful bass lows and soothing synths. Some songs went on a little too long. Favorite songs: The Robots, Spacelab
Key songs: Das Model, The Robots
Best Kreftwerk album
a la Tron Legacy electro-techno
