Story
Kraftwerk power!

I wanted to get as much of a Kraftwerk-feel to it as I could, so I added some cheesy singing with (what I myself would regard as) german-accent. But since I'm swedish I don't know how authentic the accent sounds

Judging from the respons I think I succede to get the Kraftwerk-feel, and that's what I aimed for

This is a bloody awesome cover in the style of Kraftwerk, more specificly their Electric Café album! Complete with the typical minimalistic drums, the minimalistic music structure - and even singing! It is really good, and although I think the singing could've been more robotic and the lead sound a bit more Kraftwerky, all in all, it's one very good piece of work.

Now here's a little gem. Somehow I missed this originally but having recently downloaded it, and I'm sure glad I found it. As the title suggests, this is a Kraftwerk style remix, and it's very effective as that. But the really clever thing about this mix, is the actual mixing of this tune itself. Taking the Comets bass and lead and then adding and enhancing them into the Kraftwerk styled drums is really well accomplished, but it's the lyrics and the way Makke has fitted them in! Stunning. Compulsive listening, even if you're not into Kraftwerk. If I didn't know it was a R64 remix, I might even have suspected that my German heroes had gone all retro C64! Great fun, great mix!
