238. Kraftwerk: Trans-Europe Express (1977)

This podcast may give you an existential crisis when we Marching Dice a John Philip Sousa song on your face and become the best podcast about Kraftwerk and 238th greatest album of all time, Trans-Europe Express. 

 

Before we get to the music, we let our haters become our motivators for some discussion of dominatrix dreams, one-arm pushups, and concert posters. We also celebrate a mental health day with another pack of Boston Baked Beans. Good luck trying to do a carpool karaoke version of this part of the pod with Chicken James Cordon Bleu.

 

Then, at (1:13:00), these four showroom dummies cover the 1977 electronic album, Trans-Europe Express. We discuss Krautrock music, sequencers, and Kraftwerk's influence on Dr. Dre.

 

Next week's episode will feature a dope beat as we become the best Boogie Down Production podcast and cover the 1987 hip-hop album, Criminal Minded.
