@giflian@techhub.social Kraftwerk released the album Computer World (aka Β«ComputerweltΒ») in 1981, which included the track β€˜Pocket Calculator” (aka β€˜Taschenrechner’), and they’d been around for a fair few years by that point, with all sorts of multiplication and square root and other functions.

@IanAMartin@mstdn.ca Since I only came to enjoy Kraftwerk decades later, I sort of see them as living outside of time.

Crap, it’s too late to listen to Kraftwerk if I want to sleep.

@giflian@techhub.social Autobahn works well, I find. Also TransEuroExpress.

@IanAMartin@mstdn.ca still too much. Maybe I’ll listen to Brian Eno deconstruct Pachelbel

@giflian@techhub.social Ah, the beginning of his experimentations. I’ll have to put that on tomorrow. Autobahn was this evening; my fault.
