Word from Ralf

MOJO: You work at Kling Klang every day from 5pm to 1am, often longer, which makes your limited output over the last 20 years baffling.
Ralf Hütter: Because we are such a small unit, working to our own rhythm of perfection. Now maybe we will have more output.

There’s the two DVD live set being released in September and a book apparently, and sometime after that the remastered back catalogue. Ralf’s remark probably means nothing, but if it isn’t I do so hope they don’t release anything substandard. Their oeuvre is so remarkable, the minor blip of parts of Electric Cafe serving merely to underline how stunning the rest is. I love this image as well (how could anybody say they dont’ have a sense of humour?):

Ralf Hütter: We are musical workers in the electronic garden.
