Wow toll dass sowas jetzt auch offiziell hochgeladen wird! Stimmt es eigentlich dass sie abwechselnd mit Can aufgetreten sind, oder ist das hier wirklich das komplette Konzert und Can haben davor/danach gespielt? Es gibt auf jeden fall auch eine Aufnahme von Can vom selben Tag, bei dem sie auf einer zweiten Bühne spielen (die man hier auch manchmal sieht) was ja recht sinnvoll wäre wenn man abwechselnd spielt...

Die Konzerte von Can und Kraftwerk fanden so wie hier zu sehen gar nicht satt. Beide Gruppen traten im Rahmen der Veranstaltung „Mixed Media aus Soest“ auf. Nach nahezu jedem Song gab´s Redebeiträge oder Filmeinspielungen. Diese haben wir alle herausgeschnitten und die Songs in der Originalreihenfolge hintereinander gehängt.
I disagree actually, that statement implies that this was hard to listen to back then and now it's perfectly normal. This is sort of Dada music, it's music-paradigm shifting but it's never 'of' any time because it's an experiment. It's still totally unlistenable to most ears, even to me and I like some of Kraftwerk and listen almost solely to electronic music much of which is 'avant-garde'. I'm being pedantic but I strongly dislike the cliche 😄
It's kinda cool to see the crowd being exposed to something original/unconventional/groundbreaking. A lot of them are open to it and enjoying it. Some unsure what to think. It's great to see their reactions.
Im the same way. when i first watched this, half of my enjoyment came from just the various looks on the people. some were skeptical but others were curiously entranced by this out of this world sound.
Yes this. Some bobbing their heads/clapping getting into it. Some just staring with intrigue. Some looking around confused not knowing what to do. Others covering their ears because all they hear is noise. I wonder what they were thinking while listening to this.
Holy crap this was only months after Woodstock and those guys are pulling some of the main basis of what would come 20 years later as electronic music, those people in the audience are now around 60/70yo, it's mind blowing.
@@cymen1 i mean, there are endless innovations and inspirations regarding musical electronics that didn't catch on commercially or culturally before the 70s. is it realistic to say there was one foundation?
Two of their early members, the drummer, Klaus Dinger and Gitarrist Michael Rother left the band and formed a new group called NEU. Their first album came out 1971, simply called NEU. The first track on that album is called Hallogallo. An absolutely incredible sound
I’d not heard this before but it sounds to me that Dinger and Rother left their mark on early Kraftwerk. At this point Neu!, Kraftwerk and Cluster seemed to be influencing each other in some symbiotic fashion. This is really a good, groundbreaking performance.
SAME. I listen to Monolake and some other abstract/ambient/electronica so the first 1/4 or 1/2 of this set didn't impress me that much but the 2nd half is strong and creative!!!
To be one of those people in the crowd for this performance and actually be sober would be incredible. How much music happened that night created 90% of what we listen to today. Stop reading this and just appreciate the magic.
As someone who’s into oldschool electro, house, techno, and braindance it’s interesting to see the foundation for those genres in this one set. Electronic music existed well before Kraftwerk, but they were able to help it reach a wider audience. And for that, I can’t thank them enough. ❤️❤️❤️
Electronic Music ≠ Electronica (Music). Electronic Music existed but not Electronica. Kraftwerk invented Electronica and Techno. The argument that Techno is from Detroit is false, and it is a lie.
0:01 Vom Himmel hoch 16:43 Ruckzuck 27:22 Stratovarius 37:10 Improvisation 1 so it says Stratovarius in the video, but the first track is definately "Vom Himmel hoch" and the third track isdefinately "Stratovarius" not "Heavy Metal Kids".
But thats the tripped part about it bro, some of them got it right away, some left immediately, some stayed because everybody else stayed, some just smoked and embraced it because it was their own, others stayed because they incorporated rock into electro music. Its a fascinating process to watch play out with the earliest witnesses to modern music.
Look on the audience faces are worth the price of admission alone. Little did they know that this band would become very famous for the electronic music they would create. A true gem of video
This is a side of Kraftwerk I never got to see until now. I thought the world began at "Rolf & Florian." This is friggin' awesome! Progressive rock had met its match in 1970 with these guys.
1970 I was 14 years old, and going towards the end of that year I already have heard of Kraftwerk. It was the radio station out of UCSB (KCSB 91.9 FM) that the late night DJ was spinning Kraftwerk over the airwaves. That is when I really got into this type of experimental music. In '71 I went to one of our local record stores and was going through the import section and I found Kraftwerk Vol. 1 & 2. Good thing I had the money to buy both albums. My friends at that time just couldn't understand this type of music. When I took the albums to one of their homes and played the albums on their stereo sound system. I suggested let's get stoned and listen to them. Well, that seemed to freak them out even more so. As for me, it was a fantastic trip. (Ralf Hutter looked cool back then. And the German babes were hot looking back then. I wish I was at this concert when I 14 years old. I just might have gotten lucky with one of them. Maybe 2 or 3 at the sametime :)
Die geschockten Blicke der Generation, die mit den Beatles , Rolling Stones oder Elvis aufgewachsen ist. Und dann kommt da was wirklich Episches !! Die Leute die bei diesem Konzert dabei waren, hätten damals nicht gedacht das sie einem zeitgeschichtlichem Musikereignis beiwohnten. DANKE, KRAFTWERK für eure Visionen die alles Nachfolgende geprägt haben. 🛣💃🕺🛣
what a great moment, the musical creativity of the 70s is fantastic in all styles, rock'n roll, hard rock, progressive, disco, psychedelic, and of course the beginnings of electronics.
Listen, I'm Russian, first time heard this art, instead this art is good quality , after through 20 years techno had appeared. They are founders of techno. Good.
This *historically AWESOME* rare Kraftwerk video has truly ELECTRIFIED me at the start of the New Year 2020. Little did those young folks 50 years ago know that this new sound would pioneer electronic dance music about one decade later!!🙌💙😀💗
Heute vor genau 40 Jahren - am 19. Mai 1978 - haben Kraftwerk übrigens Die Mensch-Maschine veröffentlicht. Darauf zu finden waren: Die Roboter und Das Model. Gerade einmal 8 Jahren liegen also zwischen dem Musik-Meilenstein Mensch-Maschine und diesen Aufnahmen aus Soest, die die Experimentier- und Entdecker-Freude der Düsseldorfer Band schon damals deutlich machten - der Rest ist (Musik-)Geschichte!
(Slogan on live screen:) Support the economy - Have Christmas more often It was quite daring to start the set the way they did in front of a really tough village room. Girls thought they'd been asked out for a good time and wanted to dance. There were parts of the crowd clamoring to stop it. And then it is so amazing to see how by and by many of the people start to get it, or at least felt seriously challenged. It was a glimpse into the future. It also was the experience of another version of the then present. And it wasn't all gold, so the skepticism that remained in the audience shows a healthy attitude.
Incredible. What a gem of a video. This is pioneering, innovative music at its very best. As someone else here suggested, Kraftwerk didn't invent electronic music, but they did inspire/create entire genres of music. Few bands can say that.
Someone heard this, and appreciated it enough to hold a concert and film it. Whoever it was to have the artistic perception to see this for what it was: Thank You. Lived in Germany in my 20s. This couldn't have happened anywhere else. They appreciate and support original thought and creativity.
Just wonderful. As a 52 year old who still raves (just back from Bangface), I revere the mighty godfathers - Kraftwerk. Huge respect to our German brothers and sisters, from all us old English ravers xx
@@nickelodeonstuff1572 dude. The audience is the best part! To be able to witness their reactions on something absolutely new is completely fascinating to me.
What a amazing documenting of music history. The looks on the audiences faces are priceless. They didn't realize what they were witnessing at the time. The birth of electronic music.
They're playing music here that would later become the foundations of house and techno, but about 15 years before those styles were invented and recorded! I hear drum n bass in this gig too. Amazing stuff.
An amazing historical document. Good to see it online officially now. Maybe this could be the trigger to getting the first 3 Kraftwerk's officially reissued on CD and LP? Someone like Gunther Buskies should get a petition going!
I really hope that happens, but something in me says they'll never get proper re-releases. I do hope I'm wrong, though, because Ralf und Florian is in my top 3 Kraftwerk albums.
If you came here for the Newton's Apple theme song (Ruckzuck, "In No Time"), that starts around 16:45. Be mindblown at what Florian could make a flute do! See Ralf look like Bubbles in a leather jacket. This is the original trance track, so dig it.
This is more akin to experimental/avant-garde rock, similar to Pink Floyd. The stone age for electronic music started with Autobahn, in 1974 and solidified in 1975 with Radioactivity
This is the 60’s trying to shake the hippy out of its system. 30 years later whistles are a common thing in raves. 2019 where would our music direction have gone without these electronic music pioneers. Hardcore will never die!
Something similar happened, end of 80s-early 90s, in India. People being hippy to acid house and a German kind of Techno pioneer (Sven Väth) came to shiva Valley and does some kind of not heard before techno. The people completely flipped and the musicians of that island started to create kinda techno with tribal sounds. Goa trance and the new generation of hippies was born. These are the things, what makes me happy and glad to be part of that nation. This Film from Kraftwerk is a priceless treasure
Es increíble que en una época donde no Existian los secuenciadores ni bases de tiempo, se lanzaron a sonar diferente se lanzaron a sonar completamente sintéticos a sonar electrónicos..!! Toda una proeza para esa época, por cierto, "musique non stop.." Saludos desde México city ✌️😎
That's the most you're ever gonna see "Das Roboter" move while playing their instruments! What an amazing evolution from their beginnings ... you can hear a glimpse of the classic Kraftwerk robot "vocal sounds" coming in @ 13:30 . I was absolutely stunned to hear & see this for the very first time about a year ago? because the 1st thing I'd ever heard from them was Tour de France back in 1983 (which I absolutely fell in love with). I had no idea they started out in experimental/prog rock in typical 60s style. I'm still in love with their music - their classic "hits" - & feel (oddly) grounded listening to it considering it's mechanically produced ... possibly because it represents the music of my 20s & the decade of the 80s - the last hoorah when it comes to the production of (what I'd refer to as) "REAL music" - melody, purpose, soul vs. the crap we hear today produced literally by machines & the vacuous people behind them who don't give a lick about its construct - only about plugging in 2 bars of notes into a computer program & hitting the Repeat Button to collect a paycheck.
When Florian Schneider-Esleben is playing the flutes he's almost flute beat boxing, like Nathan flute box lee. Even Ian Anderson didn't go that far. And it's very strange seeing them on stage actually playing instruments and performing. Compared to the Kraftwerk we know now. Sweet recorded memories :)
Holy cow - compare these wild beginning to the perfectionist happenings installed by the Kraftwerk of today. What an evolution, but also how radically new they were in the 70ies !
Entendam. A plateia estava participando de algo realmente novo, nunca visto (melhor, ouvido) antes. Era vanguarda para a época. E para mim, honestamente, ainda o é em 2021.
Я из России. 1977 года рождения. И я энаю Depeche Mode. Camouflage, Mesh, Covenant, и многих других. Но начало появляется в этом - неповторимый Кraftwerk - первопроходцы звука. Все что они сделали - это посмотрели за звезды и все это воплотили в звуке. Невероятно до сих пор!!!
I imagine the boy who told his girlfriend "let's go to the concert of electronic music to dance and have fun". And they got this surreal arthouse ambient. Look at girl on 46:15 on the right, lol I understand people who didn't like electronic music in those times.
You can see me at 3:07 - the boy with the blond hair - there was a very special atmosphere in the hall - many were unsettled - very few understood what was happening - it was phenomenal!🚀🛸🪐
Just to add, it's so GREAT to at least see a handful of these young folks clapping along to the catchy beats of these electronic masterpieces. Of course, about 20+ years later, this would ultimately become known as the sound of *rave*. 😁💗😆🙌
Experimental stuff like this existed for a long time. The BBC Radiophonic Workshop did some amazing stuff in the early 60s. The cool part is that they brought this kind of stuff to the stage
Customized and built for them. Because back then you couldn't go into the stores and get something like that. Same with the Electronic Drumkit which they invented together with Wolfgang Flür. They basically took apart other instruments, re-wired them and worked out new circuitry with a friend who had knowledge about electronics and soldering and helping them with custom instruments so they had what they needed to play on. Only many years later companies like Moog or Yamaha took the design and released convenient instruments like that which you could buy.
@@KRAFTWERK2K6 Oh I see, They had necessity to play music in their unique style, and inventor respond their needs. "Necessity is the mother of invention. " That famous words is may for Kraftwork . Nowadays in pop music, there is no novelty looks like. Maybe that reason be ascribed that most of musician creates by music instruments already existing. That mean, free ideas has to be first for create music.
@@KRAFTWERK2K6 most of what you say is correct, but the pipe shaped synth used here is the "Tubon"... which was a commercially available battery powered synth made in Sweden, also known under the name "Livingston" in the UK.
In which Kraftwerk demonstrates an electronic didgeridoo. :) This is pretty awesome in a very proto-electro-cyber-punk sort of way. It's like robot rock but analog. Clockwork Bot Rock.
Ruckzuck is the embryo of the middle of Autobahn. Plus how cool is it that this is sort of KraftCan or CanWerk. There is a documentary about this time in Germany and how they were trying to create their own sound, not just emulate the Blues or American Rock music . This era of KWerk is along w Can, Neu, Popul Vouh, Cluster and Amün Duhl were totally original .
Für die damalige Zeit einfach nur revolutionär...bin gerade voll geflasht. Virtuos auf höchstem Niveau ...warum gibt es heute solchen genialen Musiker nicht mehr????

Was it really thou?
Das dachte ich auch
exactly
These guys were in 1985 while everyone else was in 1970
Ehh.. I don’t think this can really be classified a year. It sounds like it doesn’t come from any era really.

What a amazing documenting of music history. The looks on the audiences faces are priceless. They didn't realize what they were witnessing at the time. The birth of electronic music.
They're playing music here that would later become the foundations of house and techno, but about 15 years before those styles were invented and recorded! I hear drum n bass in this gig too. Amazing stuff.
I find this to be 100 times more interesting than Woodstock as a historical document.
jamie pastman I find both fascinating for entirely different reasons.
Woodstock music people knew of......this here is on a whole new dimension, Jimmy ,janus and Jim ain't got nothing on these dudes
An amazing historical document. Good to see it online officially now. Maybe this could be the trigger to getting the first 3 Kraftwerk's officially reissued on CD and LP? Someone like Gunther Buskies should get a petition going!
I really hope that happens, but something in me says they'll never get proper re-releases. I do hope I'm wrong, though, because Ralf und Florian is in my top 3 Kraftwerk albums.
1974/75 , senior year, and listening to Kraftwerk under the influence of anything was like being on another planet !!!
@15:50
The first Ravers on earth dancing to a 4 to the floor beat and a proto-sawtooth sequence.
20:09 "Hey Florian, don't let me forget that bit. Sounds like something we could use later."
There's definetely never been, or never going to be another band so ahead of its time
RIP Florian Schneider 😢
If you came here for the Newton's Apple theme song (Ruckzuck, "In No Time"), that starts around 16:45. Be mindblown at what Florian could make a flute do! See Ralf look like Bubbles in a leather jacket. This is the original trance track, so dig it.
This is the musical equivalent of watching seismic activity..the landscape changing before your ears and eyes...privilege to see it...thankyou.
The Stone age of electronic music.
Херня
This is more akin to experimental/avant-garde rock, similar to Pink Floyd. The stone age for electronic music started with Autobahn, in 1974 and solidified in 1975 with Radioactivity
More like the Iron Age; electronic music is essentially older than rock & roll.
i believe the real pioneers were the anatolian rock bands, especially with the use of the electric bağlama
This is the 60’s trying to shake the hippy out of its system. 30 years later whistles are a common thing in raves. 2019 where would our music direction have gone without these electronic music pioneers. Hardcore will never die!
I've been into electro,minimal, house and edm since 2004 when i was 14, and this sounds really really good ! It proper slaps!
rave whistle was invented at this show
Not to be confused with rape whistle.
See my comment lol
Something similar happened, end of 80s-early 90s, in India. People being hippy to acid house and a German kind of Techno pioneer (Sven Väth) came to shiva Valley and does some kind of not heard before techno. The people completely flipped and the musicians of that island started to create kinda techno with tribal sounds. Goa trance and the new generation of hippies was born. These are the things, what makes me happy and glad to be part of that nation. This Film from Kraftwerk is a priceless treasure
Es increíble que en una época donde no Existian los secuenciadores ni bases de tiempo, se lanzaron a sonar diferente se lanzaron a sonar completamente sintéticos a sonar electrónicos..!!
Toda una proeza para esa época, por cierto, "musique non stop.."
Saludos desde México city ✌️😎
Kraftwerk before they became robots
Amazing
That's the most you're ever gonna see "Das Roboter" move while playing their instruments! What an amazing evolution from their beginnings ... you can hear a glimpse of the classic Kraftwerk robot "vocal sounds" coming in @ 13:30 . I was absolutely stunned to hear & see this for the very first time about a year ago? because the 1st thing I'd ever heard from them was Tour de France back in 1983 (which I absolutely fell in love with). I had no idea they started out in experimental/prog rock in typical 60s style. I'm still in love with their music - their classic "hits" - & feel (oddly) grounded listening to it considering it's mechanically produced ... possibly because it represents the music of my 20s & the decade of the 80s - the last hoorah when it comes to the production of (what I'd refer to as) "REAL music" - melody, purpose, soul vs. the crap we hear today produced literally by machines & the vacuous people behind them who don't give a lick about its construct - only about plugging in 2 bars of notes into a computer program & hitting the Repeat Button to collect a paycheck.
Geil. Möge Kraftwerk ewig sein.
When Florian Schneider-Esleben is playing the flutes he's almost flute beat boxing, like Nathan flute box lee. Even Ian Anderson didn't go that far. And it's very strange seeing them on stage actually playing instruments and performing. Compared to the Kraftwerk we know now. Sweet recorded memories :)
41:49 is a good example
Holy cow - compare these wild beginning to the perfectionist happenings installed by the Kraftwerk of today. What an evolution, but also how radically new they were in the 70ies !
Entendam. A plateia estava participando de algo realmente novo, nunca visto (melhor, ouvido) antes. Era vanguarda para a época. E para mim, honestamente, ainda o é em 2021.
I loved hearing the "Newton's Apple" theme played live.
Я из России. 1977 года рождения. И я энаю Depeche Mode. Camouflage, Mesh, Covenant, и многих других. Но начало появляется в этом - неповторимый Кraftwerk - первопроходцы звука. Все что они сделали - это посмотрели за звезды и все это воплотили в звуке. Невероятно до сих пор!!!
I imagine the boy who told his girlfriend "let's go to the concert of electronic music to dance and have fun". And they got this surreal arthouse ambient. Look at girl on 46:15 on the right, lol I understand people who didn't like electronic music in those times.
It was actually called the Festival of the Youth in Soest Netherlands
rattle it was also broadcasted on television so most people went there to be on television.
Angelic!
You can see me at 3:07 - the boy with the blond hair - there was a very special atmosphere in the hall - many were unsettled - very few understood what was happening - it was phenomenal!🚀🛸🪐
Great to see Ralf Hutter rocking out at the end of Ruckzuck.
Ralf…please PLEASE reissue these first 3 painfully underrated albums. I know you might find them embarrassing, but we find them BEAUTIFUL 🤩
Just to add, it's so GREAT to at least see a handful of these young folks clapping along to the catchy beats of these electronic masterpieces. Of course, about 20+ years later, this would ultimately become known as the sound of *rave*. 😁💗😆🙌
Damals war der Rockpalast für Musiker die Brücke in die welt, ich liebe die Live Sachen einfach über alles 🥳
1970. This is 1970! Absolutely mindblowing.
Kraftwerk really had the audacity to open their set with a keytar solo.
Wow. At a time when Keith Emerson was just starting to use a moog modular unit, these guys were already using a key-tar.
Experimental stuff like this existed for a long time. The BBC Radiophonic Workshop did some amazing stuff in the early 60s. The cool part is that they brought this kind of stuff to the stage
Keith Emerson did experiment a lot.
@Firecriss this is called a tubon. An obscure mini synthesizer by the swedish Joh.Mustad company. It's pretty rare these days.

The real inventor of electronic music is probably Stockhausen. He started experimenting with it in the 50s.
I"ve never imagined that "sholder keyboard" exists in the 1970 !
Customized and built for them. Because back then you couldn't go into the stores and get something like that. Same with the Electronic Drumkit which they invented together with Wolfgang Flür. They basically took apart other instruments, re-wired them and worked out new circuitry with a friend who had knowledge about electronics and soldering and helping them with custom instruments so they had what they needed to play on. Only many years later companies like Moog or Yamaha took the design and released convenient instruments like that which you could buy.
@@KRAFTWERK2K6
Oh I see, They had necessity to play music in their unique style, and inventor respond their needs.
"Necessity is the mother of invention. " That famous words is may for Kraftwork .
Nowadays in pop music, there is no novelty looks like. Maybe that reason be ascribed that most of musician creates by music instruments already existing. That mean, free ideas has to be first for create music.
Me too,and it' s amazing
@@GoooNakayama WOW! I have learnt something shocking today!
@@KRAFTWERK2K6 most of what you say is correct, but the pipe shaped synth used here is the "Tubon"... which was a commercially available battery powered synth made in Sweden, also known under the name "Livingston" in the UK.
La mejor banda de musica electronica de todos los tiempos...super adelantados a su epoca.
One week, Can. The following week, Kraftwerk. What a time to be alive!
In which Kraftwerk demonstrates an electronic didgeridoo. :) This is pretty awesome in a very proto-electro-cyber-punk sort of way. It's like robot rock but analog. Clockwork Bot Rock.
Wow. All I can add is this: hang in there for the whole thing - skip the bugger-whistler, there’s gold in here.
live production is sublime
Holy cow, I had no idea these guys were around as far back as 1970. This is fantastic!
Ruckzuck is the embryo of the middle of Autobahn. Plus how cool is it that this is sort of KraftCan or CanWerk.
There is a documentary about this time in Germany and how they were trying to create their own sound, not just emulate the Blues or American Rock music . This era of KWerk is along w Can, Neu, Popul Vouh, Cluster and Amün Duhl were totally original .
Für die damalige Zeit einfach nur revolutionär...bin gerade voll geflasht. Virtuos auf höchstem Niveau ...warum gibt es heute solchen genialen Musiker nicht mehr????
Die gibt es! Das möchte nur keiner mehr hören. Schön das du das so siehst. Viele Grüße Erdnahe Objekte🍀
You can hear the foundations of some of their later classics in here
This is awesome
с 20 минуты начинается next level sound. Крафтвер legend...thanks who put this video.
Я думал мне мозг выжгет нахер😜
Ну да хуево как то исполнили, и не честно... флейты... ударные... надо чисто на иониках
Electronic Music Legendary Band ! Poland Loves Kraftwerk ;-)
I'm gonna tell my gandchildren this was Kraftwerk.
The look on the girl in the chair is the same my wife gave me at a Tangerine Dream show in CT
