Florian Schneider Dies

I’m listening to nothing but Kraftwerk today.  Not the first day that’s happened right enough, and won’t be the last.

Don Schneider

Listening to their eponymous debut now.  Love how everything sounds on this album.

Anyone know some good interviews with Florian? 

Interested to read his more recent ones where he talks about their influence on contemporary music. Do those exist?

I always loved this non-interview

haha

doesn't look like a talkative guy. probs no interviews available. o well

He will be sorely missed; a trailblazer of unbelievable proportion.

Here's a great picture of him with Juan Atkins:

I kind of want to start dressing like that when I get old. My great grandfather did.

I really like how they're just pointing at each other like "this guy right here..."; both are equally teacher and pupil; the influence techno had on Kraftwerk after the obvious influence they had on techno is something I think is largely unacknowledged.

And I like how they are just posing in a Detroit corner store for someone, like it’s no big thing. Legends.
