Music

The first ever oral-history of Krautrock, the sound that changed modern music. The unique and adventurous sounds that German bands like Can, Neu! or Kraftwerk produced in post-war 60s Germany, now known as Krautrock, are considered a blueprint for modern rock music. And the stream of their cre-ative admirers and continuators has been constantly widening since the first fans like David Bowie and Iggy Pop. In Neu Klang, Christoph Dallach inter-viewed its pioneers and their answers combine to form an oral history that points far beyond the individual band histories.
