From Wikipedia:Kraftwerk is an electronic music band from Germany.The Kraftwerk sound combines a driving rhythm section with catchy, synthesized melodies and harmony; mainly following a Western classical style of arrangement, accompanied by simple lyrics that are sometimes sung through a vocoder or generated by computer-speech software. The Moog synthesizer is heavily present in the majority of the group's works, adding to its signature sound creations. In the mid to late 1970s and the early 1980s, the Kraftwerk sound was revolutionary for its time, and it has had a lasting impact across nearly all genres of modern popular music.

My favotite albums are:

The first two (Kraftwerk I,II) are also very interesting,but they have a different-more difficult to hear-sound from the other albums.
