Kraut of the ordinary
das etwas - deutscherwerkbund (mp3)
it’s undeniable the influence that a few german bands of the 1960s had on the current dance scene. the so-hot-right-now cosmic disco sounds owe heavily to the ground-breaking work of ash-ra temple and manuel gă¶ttsching, the motorik sounds of neu! are being respectfully refreshed by fujiya and miyagi, and there is no lack of writings on the how much electronic music owes kraftwerk (and in case you missed those - the answer is everything).
so fans of krautrock unite, as you’ve probably not had it this good for some time! this is a track from das etwas (”the something” according to mr babelfish) and channels the spirit of the german pioneers of old via it’s repetitive shuffling beats, vocal chants, druggy synths and sporadic aural effects.
