Kraftwerk Tour De France Gif
The Godfathers of Electro return...

To coincide with thousands of sweaty skinny men riding around france, Kraftwerk are re-releasing their 1983 classic (or press release speak "seminal, electro masterpiece") 'Tour De France', with a new mix entitled 'Tour De France 03'. It's out on July 7th via EMI on CD and 12" vinyl.

There's also an album, entitled 'Tour De France' which features 'Tour De France 03' plus some new "compositions" created at their Kling Klang studio in Düsseldorf where the zany germans are currently finishing up the record, due for release 21st July 2003.

DiScuss: What's the greatest 'Electronic' record of all time?

Re: Kraftwerk: Return On Bikes In Stripes

And here was me thinking Fischerspooner...

Actually.. - The Pet Shop Boys
The Man Machine - Kraftwerk
Danse Macabre - The Faint

Re: Kraftwerk: Return On Bikes In Stripes

Actually - Pet Shop Boys by a long chalk. Although, you obviously have the classic tracks by Depeche Mode, New Order & The Tubeway Army.

WOW

What fantastic news :)

oohyeha =-
DELIA! - she hardly ever gets recognition (except in haunts like the wire...)

shes grand
although i do like kraftwerk and my vote would probably go to the song about telephones (ive got a crap memory and only listen to them once a year - i dont want to wear out the types - theyre original 1979 versions)
