Tour De Germany, hasta la vista baby.

Kraftwerk is a very great example of influence on why a lot music today has elements of Synthesizers, Drum Machine’s, and electronic sounds that are implemented into popular music. There upcoming was unexpected to the world until the international release of Autobahn release in 1974. This release is what got Kraftwerk known and recognized by Afrika Bambaataa, who in turn sampled kraftwerk which gave Hip Hop a new sound. The groups classical style of harmony with electronic instrumentation with the simple lyrics is considered them pioneers in the industry. The band formed by Ralf Hutter and Florian Schneider in 1970, which went to show the group struggled to get recognized at first, and that lead the group to get recognized until the release of Autobahn.

Personally Kraftwerk is one of the greatest band’s of the 1970 because of the structure and creativity, it was unheard of at the time. I feel they aren’t recognized as popular as the Beatles, but I can honestly say they’ve made a great impacted just as big as the Beatles did. The group continued to release more great album’s such as Trans-Europe Express which didn’t do as well as Autobahn on the chart’s. The album still manages to be a great influence to even today’s great artist and past acts such as David Bowie, Iggy Pop, and more. According to Pitchfork media, Trans-Europe Express was listed at number six on their list of top 100 albums of the 1970s. Personally Kraftwerk is one of my influences ever since I heard afrika bambaataa Planet Rock I always wondered how can an individual even created such a sound. The day I found out those were samples I forever got into the habit of finding out Hip Hop Samples and that’s what brought to Producing Music.

The Theremin

Leon Theremin is Russian Soviet inventor of French and German descent. Theremin became interested in electricity at an early age by the age of 7, and by 13 he was experimenting with high frequency circuits. Theremin is well known for one of inventions called, “The Theremin”. The Theremin was the very first electronic instrument created. Leon gave homage to the creation by naming his creation by his last name. Leon’s life was electricity, because by the age of 17 he had his very own laboratory where he would experiment with high frequency circuits, optics and magnetic fields. Leon recalled that he had built a million-volt Tesla Coil and noticed a strong glow associated with his attempts to ionize the air.


The outlook on what Leon was trying to accomplish was to use the resources of the actual universe. Leon’s device, “The Theremin”, was patented in 1928. The Theremin consisted of the position of the player's hands to control oscillators for frequency bands with one hand, and amplitude with the other without being touched. Vladimir Lenin, Leader of the Soviet Communist Party, ordered six hundred of the instruments for distribution and sent Leon on a trip around the world to demonstrate the latest Soviet technology and the invention of electronic music. Leon had much to express with his passion for inventing and using the universe at his advantage to create such invention like the Theremin Instrument. The fact he had the idea of even having thoughts of creating an invention that would ionize the air seems quite bizarre and intriguing even in our day in age. Today, Theremins are popular instruments among avant-garde and classical artists, and is occasionally used in jazz music as well. Also, there said to be a newer version of the Theremin created that reacts to movement, which was created for dancers.
