Kraftwerk - The Man-Machine

Kraftwerk – The Man-Machine

Released in 1978, The Man-Machine marks a bold shift for Kraftwerk — a new look, a new sound and a fresh concept that pushed electronic music years into the future. Built on smooth, machine-like rhythms that predate European techno and trance, the album explores themes of automation, alienation, space travel and the strange shine of modern celebrity.

The Robots brings dry, playful Kraftwerk humour into a funky, clipped groove. The Model is a sharp, melodic satire of the beauty industry that accidentally hit number one in the UK three years after release. And Neon Lights is perhaps their most romantic moment — a glowing, dreamy lullaby for cities after dark.

Kraftwerk at their most inventive, reshaping the sound of electronic music while reinventing themselves.
