Kraftwerk - Musique Non Stop (4:11 min)
During the mid-'70s, Germany's Kraftwerk established the sonic blueprint followed by an extraordinary number of artists in the decades to come. From the British new romantic movement to hip-hop to techno, the group's self-described "robot pop" -- hypnotically minimal, obliquely rhythmic music performed solely via electronic means -- resonates in virtually every new development to impact the contemporary pop scene of the late- 20th century, and as pioneers of the electronic music form, their enduring influence cannot be overstated. Two singles were released from the album Electic Cafe 1986 "Musique Non Stop" and "The Telephone Call". These both accompanied by promotional videos, with the "Musique Non Stop" video in particular showcasing some cutting-edge wireframe computer animations of the band, created by Rebecca Allen. Neither of the singles performed well in the charts.
