Dies Ist Krautrock

Germany’s avant-garde scene in the sixties and seventies established a relationship with modern music similar to the one “Citizen Kane” eventually forged with film, in that basically everybody working today is either directly influenced by it or they’re influenced by someone who was. Welcome to this distillation of a scene that has received an abundance of credit, but still seems underrated. Meine damen und herren, dies ist krautrock.
