KRAFTWERK - 80's Synth Act

Kraftwerk are a German synth act who have often been described as the Godfathers of electronic music. They often sing their vocals through a vocoder, or use computer-generated vocals.

The minimalist, emotionless, robotic sound was just what Kraftwerk were after. They weren't interested in the big productions that many other 70s and 80s acts relied upon.

First formed in 1970, the name Kraftwerk is German for "Power Plant".
