_kraftwerk_the_catalogue_12345678_
if you want the ultimate boxset for kraftwerk,
(which was limited to a 500 set promo only pressing)... it's coming soon.. http://www.mute.com/loadGlobalNews.d...newsId=9013361 Kraftwerk - 12345678 The Catalogue Four Decades of Masterworks CD, CD Box Set, Vinyl & Download 5th October 2009 Kraftwerk: Electro Pioneers, living legends and globally revered masters of electronic sound, celebrate the 35th anniversary of their landmark 1974 hit 'Autobahn' by releasing digitally remastered versions of eight astounding albums on 5th October 2009. Rolling back musical barriers with every forward-thinking phase of their career, Dusseldorf's Zen masters of electronic minimalism laid the foundations for four decades of computerised pop and dance music. By chain reaction and mutation, they have influenced generations of artists in all genres, mapping musical futures yet to come. From Bowie to Daft Punk, Aphex Twin to Portishead, Dr Dre to LCD Soundsystem, and almost everyone in between, the mark of Kraftwerk is endless, endless. In 2009 Kraftwerk have upgraded their Kling Klang masters with the latest studio technology and these eight magnificent recordings still sound like nothing else in the history of music. Kraftwerk are unique, pristine, profound and beautiful. Decades may pass, but their streamlined synthetic symphonies stand outside time, as fresh as tomorrow, transcendent and sublime. 12345678 The Catalogue will be released across the following formats:

It's still hard to believe this is seeing the light of day after 5 years. But I got my preorder in for the German set as soon as I heard it appeared. The cd box set is supposed to be in a vinyl-sized box, which seems cool.

more updates:
"The 12" x 12" box set features all 8 albums, exclusively created just for this box set in mini-LP style album packaging complete with inner sleeves. Restored and newly expanded artwork is presented in the form of 8 large format 12 to 20 page booklets, housed inside a rigid board slipcase portfolio." "Due to licensing restrictions in the U.S., only five of the eight albums will be released as separate CD and LP editions: Autobahn, Radio-Activity, Trans Europe Express, The Man Machine and Tour De France (2003). As a result, the only way for fans to own the entire catalogue on CD is to purchase the Box Set." The release date for the english version is pushed to November 17th instead of October 6th. be seeing you +1 Last edited by negative1; 09-25-2009 at 01:29 PM. |

I'm slightly ashamed to admit it, but I've uploaded them all to my ipod, so haven't had a proper listen yet.
I played TEE on the train on the way to work and it sounded great, but I need to give them a proper go on the hi-fi this weekend. ...well worth spending all that money on the discs, eh? |
