“These are just for display”. I hate you. Interesting side-note: his first keyboard was a CASIO CZ1000. I own the 5000 and it’s a really unique sounding synth indeed. Super hard to program but if you are patient, it can sound really great.

Ah, yes, Krautrock. Like it or not, this name stuck. I find the evolution of music in Germany through the past 40 years to be fascinating (as demonstrated in my earlier ramblings about Kraftwerk). This covers the larger umbrella of groups that consisted of the Krautrock generation: Faust, NEU, Can, Amon Duul, etc. and is definately worth watching!
