Tschüss 2011. Willkommen 2012.
I do these hour long mixes every year or so featuring cover versions, sample-heavy tracks or songs that obviously owe a debt to the Dusseldorf quartet. Each mix is laced with spoken word, interviews or info about Kraftwerk too.
I had the idea several years ago and the more I dug, the more I found, the amount of material out there is mind boggling. Not so strange for such an influential band who rarely release new material I suppose, fans have to fill the gap somehow. For anyone wanting to play catch-up, the first 5 volumes are also available at http://www.bosbos.net/2009/11/22/strictly-kev-kevs-kraftwerk-kover-kollection-1-6/ with full artwork and track listings.
