Discography

One of the more frustrating aspects of being a fan of KRAFTWERK is their output in musical creativity. Their lack of it to be more precise. Up until now there has only been 11 official LP releases (12 if you include the pre-KRAFTWERK Organisation LP). The details below are of the LP's that have been released to date. Keep an eye out for them and give them a try if you've not come across them before. The Man Machine from 1978 is a good place to start or The Mix from 1991 if you want a more updated sound.

Of course these LP have been released in various formats in countries all over the world. Numerous singles have also been released. I am not going to list these herebut a vast amount of information used to be maintained at the International Kraftwerk Discography. This has ceased to exist, but I have a copy of it here as it was a few years back. International Kraftwerk Discography Site.

The links in the Track column will take you to the Best Of CD page. These are the tracks which I have included in my own Best Of compilation. Yes, one day I'll get around to adding tracks from the latest 2 LPs.

LP Cover	Notes	Track	Time
	TONE FLOAT (1969) Not exactly a Kraftwerk release. The group Organisation had as members Ralf and Florian who went on to form Kraftwerk. Somewhat experimental in sound. This LP has long been deleted. Original copies are now very sought after and also command high prices when copies are found. In recent years (allegedly) bootleg copies have appeared in CD form (even appearing in well known retail outlets!)	Tone Float Milk Rock Silver Forest Rhythm Salad Noitasinagro	20:45 05:23 03:16 04:07 07:45
	KRAFTWERK 1 (1970) This LP was released in this format in Germany. It was released in the UK a couple of years later as a double LP set along with Kraftwerk 2. Again a little experimental though does show the early ideas of rhythms and melodies that would appear in later works.	Ruckzuck Stratovarious Megaherz Vom Himmel Hoch	07:47 12:10 09:30 10:12
	KRAFTWERK 2 (1971) This LP was released in this format in Germany. It was released in the UK a couple of years later as a double LP set along with Kraftwerk 1. Again a little experimental though does show the early ideas of rhythms and melodies that would appear in later works.	Kling Klang Atem Strom Spule 4 Wellenlange Harmonika	17:36 02:57 03:52 05:20 09:40 03:17
	RALF AND FLORIAN (1973) The link between the older works and what would be the 'real' Kraftwerk of later LP's. This is a much more 'structured LP, containing more structured rhythms and melodies.	Elektrisches Roulette Tongebirge Kristallo Heimatklange Tanzmusik Ananas Symphonie	04:19 02:50 06:18 03:45 06:34 13:45
	AUTOBAHN (1974) Kraftwerks first 'concept' LP. A classic. The title track was drastically edited and become a top 10 hit in the states.	Autobahn Kometenmelodie 1 Kometenmelodie 2 Mitternacht Morganspaziergang	22:42 06:20 05:45 03:40 04:00
	RADIOACTIVITY (1975) Another concept LP all about the 'activity' of radio.	Geiger Counter Radioactivity Radioland Airwaves Intermission News The Voice of Energy Antenna Radio Stars Uranium Transistor Ohm Sweet Ohm	01:07 06:41 05:51 04:40 00:39 01:17 00:54 03:42 03:33 01:27 02:14 05:37
	TRANS EUROPE EXPRESS (1977) A LP that was to be the turning point in music history several years later when Africa Bambata took the title track and transformed it in Planet Rock.	Europe Express The Hall of Mirrors Showroom  Dummies Trans-Europe Express Metal on Metal Franz Schubert Endless Endless	09:40 07:54 06:13 06:52 06:43 04:25 00:56
	THE MAN MACHINE (1978) If you to get only one Kraftwerk LP this could be the one to obtained. Kraftwerk were often branded 'ahead of their time', this is particularly true of this LP, The track The Model was to become number one in the UK in 1981.	The Robots Spacelab Metropolis The Model Neon Lights The Man Machine	06:12 05:55 06:01 03:43 08:54 05:32
	COMPUTER WORLD (1981) After a 'disappearance' of 3 years Kraftwerk emerge with an all new, portable studio 'Kling Klang'.	Computer World Pocket Calculator Numbers Computer World 2 Computer Love Home Computer It's More Fun To Compute	05:06 04:55 03:39 03:23 07:16 06:19 04:14
	ELECTRIC CAFE (1986) A longer gap now, 5 years, and the release of Electric Cafe. An LP of the name Techno Pop was to contain the tracks which appear on this LP 3 years earlier, if it had been I think it would have had much more impact than it did.	Boing Boom Tschak Techno Pop Musique Non Stop The Telephone Call Sex Object Electric Cafe	02:57 07:42 05:45 08:03 06:51 04:20
	THE MIX (1991) Another 5 years and another LP is released. The Mix is a reworking of earlier released tracks (not remixed).

	Tour De France Soundtracks(2003) A long period of time then passes, 12 years to be precise. An Album that Kraftwerk had wanted to do for a long time finally sees the light of day.	Prologue Tour de France Étape 1 Tour de France Étape 2 Tour de France Étape 3 Chrono Vitamin Aéro Dynamik Titanium Elektro Kardiogramm La Forme Regénération Tour De France	00:31 04:27 06:41 03:56 03:19 08:09 05:04 03:21 05:16 08:41 01:16 05:12
