You did a great job. I know how hard it must be. Only Holger Chukay is pronounced differently, more with an u-Sound in German, which sounds like oo in English (think of food), so try Chook-I. Greetings from Germany!
0:37 'Police employed brutal tactics to de- escalate the situation'. This de- escalation technique has since been discredited. And in 2009 Kurras was outed as a Stasi agent who tried to fuel the flames of a socialist revolution by shooting a protestor.
My old university was originally a "Gesamthochschule", which was an attempt to establish a new type of higher education without the stigma of old and withering former-naziprofs and staff. Only a few of these were set up in the early 70s as a response to the 68 riots. Now, 50 years later, it had a public talk about the history of the institution which featured 85 year old Prof. emeritus opening with a black and white picture of himself and some other young people wearing suits in the street. "This is me back then, and this is Rudi Dutschke." My non-german PHD advisor later asked me who Rudi Dutschke was and why that was such a big deal... now you know ^^
I like your video, brave attempt to capture a whole brilliant and creative era in Germany in 10 minutes. If you decide to do a follow-up, I suggest to add Neu!’s Hero as the punk harbinger (yes, Bowie got the name from them), Kraftwerk’s Die Roboter as the real start of EDM and Amon Düül II’s Deutsch Nepal as a major influence on what was to become Goth. All-time favs of mine. There is so much more, but this’ll have to do. Keep it up! (Now subbed).
I think bands like Neu! contributed to the post-punk scene, which, by extension, contributed to shoegaze/dream pop. A lot of the qualities heard in krautrock may have influenced shoegaze- like creating atmosphere over the traditional three chord structure. Faust, in particular, created a droning sound that can be considered protogaze.
Stephen Morris, of Joy Division and later New Order, was a massive fan of krautrock, and also space rock (i.e. Hawkwind). His mechanistic drum style was a crucial influence on all later postpunk music.
Can, Kraftwerk and Faust seem to get most of the critical acclaim but I am more interested by the more ethereal stuff like Ash Ra Tempel, Yatha Sidhra and early Tangerine Dream.
Mind you that Ummagumma and Echoes,both by Pink Floyd,are considered to be Kraut,among fans. The same applies to the first album of Scorpions too ! And of course,Eloy, although there is a reason why they are thought as "b-class" Krautrock.Anyway, I never listened to them, but, I am a huge fan of Kraut, since the early 90s, when I first listened to Tago Mago. I've got loads of lps, many of them bought in Germany record shops and Flohmaerkte - Fleemarkets. Nice video but nine+ minutes is not enough.
I listened to the Can album on TH-cam once. It was very unusual and I liked it. Then I decided to listen to the same album on a streaming service. It was completely different from what I listened to on TH-cam. And you know why? Because TH-cam had a slowed-down version of the album to avoid copyright infringement. The "unslowed" version was much more boring.
At the beginning of this otherwise good documentary there is unfortunately a weak attempt to glorify the development of Krautrock music in retrospect to the extreme left.
I did my best with all the German pronunciations 😂 Shoutout to my German friend @slowly.diving for helping me out!

There are few things finer in music than when the drums kick in at around the 7 minute mark on _Krautrock._ The build-up/release is fantastic
a short and really good summary, very well researched!

Great video as always!!! how about a video about the Czech shoegaze scene?
Thank you so much! That's a wonderful idea :)

“Krautrock in ten minutes”
So one Can song?
Or half a Can song if it's Yoo Doo Right
Or half of an early Tangerine Dream song
Or 1/3 of Phallus Dei.
Dam! dam! You left out the signature parts of "Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht".
Can’s “Father Cannot Yell” from 1969 sounds like proto-post-punk.
What influence do you think Krautrock had in shoegaze and Dream pop?

Great video! For anyone further interessted in the Genre I urge you to watch the documentairy: Kraftwerk and the electronic revolution
And the fantastic BBC Documentary The Birth Of Krautrock
Dave Brock of Hawkwind has stated being influenced by Neu! and in particular the Motorik drum style, which can be heard on early Hawkwind albums.
Stephen Morris, of Joy Division and later New Order, was a massive fan of krautrock, and also space rock (i.e. Hawkwind). His mechanistic drum style was a crucial influence on all later postpunk music.
Magic as always guys. Australian alternative would be great.
Thank you Average Guy! That's a great idea :)
Grew up on the stuff. My older brother was into Can & others, I preferred (and still do) Amon Duul. WolfCity & Viva La Trance.
Oh God, you took it from me. I just wanted to write that Wolf City is such a FAN-TA-STIC song ! I LOVE this song and the album as well !
*FAN-TAS-TIC, to write it correctly :-)

banger!

Fvcking Hell. You are literally Covering EVERYTHING how we grew up.

❤❤
💖💖
3:20 Kraut also means Weeeeed!!!
STAY DREAMY!
@@StainedGlassStories 🖤
What about Tomorrow's Gift?
They are definitely krautrock
Together"jane"❤ saudo desde brasil
this dude said muzike conkiete... bro it MUSIQUE CONCRETE
i read it somewhere summed up nicely: "krautrock intentionally introduced monotony into rock music, and made it [monotony] popular."
So. Someone created a feature about krautrock and mentions Tangerine Dream just once on a side note, and fully ignores Eloy. Sum ting wong.
So that's how you pronounce Holger's last name.
no its not
more like 'soo ZAY' is how I have heard it
Roboter essen kein Sauerkraut
Hi
Hello
@@StainedGlassStories stained glass stories
I am apalled at wrong pronunciation of German words,including rhe names of the bands,musicians and titles of the albums
Whatever music was made by Kraftwerk - it wasn't Rock.
bro holy shit this video is unwatchable KARLHEIZEN really? KARLHEINZ ffs
