In this edition of Audiography, I continue a discussion with Jeremy Kolosine, founder of early synthpunk band, Futurisk. Leaving the 8-bit material behind for a bit, we jump back to the beginnings of Kolosine's career in the mid-late '70s in what has been hailed as the first synthpunk band in the American South. Kolosine talks about his influences, spanning from art rock to prog rock and, of course, punk. We talk about the Florida scene and his band's outsider status among a collection of "punk wannabees." We also get to hear about how James [...]

In this edition of Audiography, I continue my conversation with Jeremy Kolosine, producer of the 8-Bit Operators' tribute to Kraftwerk compilation. Continuing with our discussion on the evolution of chip music, we veer into what was behind the making of the Kraftwerk tribute compilation. Kolosine talks about Kraftwerk's involvement in the project, specifically co-leader Ralf Hutter's input, as well as his reaction to people's befuddlement of "covering an electronic band even more electronically." More information is available at Jeremy Kolosine's website www.receptorsmusic.com . Featured Music 01. Receptors - "Trans-Europe [...]
Presumably, no one with even a vague interest in electronic-based music needs to be reminded of Kraftwerk 's greatness or of their preeminent status as the original electro-pop band, blazing trails in the '70s that young synth-pop acts are still copping four decades later. But occasionally, perhaps we could all use a little bit of a refresher in exactly what it is that makes their music so all-pervasive and unforgettable. Now, even if the band had broken up at the end of the '70s they would still have been hailed as visionary electronic artistes, but even after after the [...]
In this edition of Audiography , I begin a conversation with synthpunk pioneer and current 8-bit operator Jeremy Kolosine. Kolosine began his music career in what was arguably the first synthpunk band in the American South, Futurisk. Over the course of his career, his musical path led him through a variety of bands in the shoegaze and semi-darkwave styles, but regardless of the style of music he was playing, he always managed to work a synth in. His passion for electronics eventually led him to chip music, a style of music based entirely off of 4-bit and [...]

By Brian Correia Moog gets all the credit. The iconic American company is pretty much synonymous with the synthesizer and the genesis of electronic music as we know it today (despite the fact that few people even know how to pronounce "Moog" correctly). The name pops up fifteen times in the Wikipedia article for "electronic music". But Moog is not the only synthesizer game in town. In fact, all over the Western world, scores of composers and inventors had begun experimenting with electronic music [...]
You're about 20 years off if you think Daft Punk pioneered electronic music, believe it or not the genre goes way back to the 702s to a German group called Kraftwerk. It all started when Florian Schneider and Ralf Hütter decided to start their own music project shortly after their experimental quintet group called Organization split up. Kraftwerk was originally formed as an experimental rock group, their music included many non-electronic instruments, but as their music progressed synths and drum machines became the more prominent instrument of their compositions. The tracks I posted are from their seventh album called [...]

Toccata Electronica is possibly the most stunning bootleg of Kraftwerk ever 'released'. Comprising of rare and different remixes of many well known Kraftwerk songs this bootleg first surfaced in 1995 as a CD with professional looking packaging and high quality audio. Different pressings including differing artwork and CD labels are in circulation however the front cover is usually the one shown opposite. On one CD version the band are called 'Kundendienst' and Kraftwerk are not mentioned on this CD at all. On another version released as a CD the band is confirmed as Kraftwerk but the [...]
MP3 There's something about the music of Chateau Marmont that reminds me of some of my favorite Kraftwerk songs . Maybe there's a modern dance feel to the music on their latest compilation-which is a set of 3 EPs released over the past 3 years-but the vocoder, synths, and percussion sound like the future of the past. Get what I'm saying? On "One Hundred Realities," all of the band's best elements come together into something that sounds years older than it is. It kind of makes me wanna watch some Tron [...]
The Isle of Wight is perpetually sunny. Or so it seems. Even when it rains the place makes my spirits feel light and carefree. I have a deep sense of affinity with the island. My parents went there on honeymoon in the 60's and never came back. My first ever festival was there. Aged just 1 my parents wheeled me in my pram to 'see' the likes of Jimi Hendrix, The Who, The Doors, Tiny Tim and Melanie – you could say that my [...]
snakefinger - "the model" (download) Snakefinger consisted solely of Philip Charles Lithman (1949-1987), a frequent collaborator with The Residents , who gave him the Snakefinger alias. This cover of Kraftwerk 's classic "The Model" is taken from his 1983 record Against the Grain.
Illustration by champoyhate If German progressive rock bands of the early 70s were members of the Weasley family from Harry Potter, Can would be Ginny Weasley, Cluster would be Bill, Kraftwerk would be Percy, and Neu! would probably be the one who studies dragons ... but undoubtedly, Faust would be the twins. The sly pranksters of the Krautrock set (who hate the name 'Krautrock'), Faust have always been known for musical larks, marketing scams, and instrument destruction across a career that's spanned 40 years and seriously nurtured the fame of billionaires and redheads in [...]
