S7E383 - Kraftwerk 'Radio-Activity' with Kevin Chanel


Listen Later

German electronic band Kraftwerk's 1975 release 'Radio-Activity' is a bit of a forgotten middle-child, having come just after 'Autobahn' and just before 'Trans-Europe Express'. Returning guest Kevin Chanel makes the case that this highly experimental, avant-garde concept album deserves a second look. “When airwaves swing, distant voices sing”
