A Rough Trade Book of the Year 2022 Some of the most beautiful,
era-defining music has been co-composed by Karl Bartos. 'The
Robots', 'Computer Love', 'Neon Lights', 'Tour De France' and
Kraftwerk's 1982 number one single 'The Model' all contain his deft
musical touch. For the first time, in The Sound of the Machine,
Bartos speaks candidly and with wit and humour about his life in
Kraftwerk, a band widely acknowledged as being one of the most
important in modern music. In The Sound of the Machine, Karl
vividly recalls what it was like to be in the Kling Klang studios
during recording, describing the process and perfectly capturing
the joy and passion of three people composing and recording. Now,
with a successful solo career of 30 years, Karl Bartos recalls his
post-war childhood, the amazement he felt on first hearing The
Beatles, his first bands, his parallel career as a musician and
teacher, his years with Kraftwerk, and his hopes and fears for
today's musical culture. 'Full and frank disclosure of life in the
world's most influential electronic band... Karl Bartos' enjoyable
tome.' Record Collector, 4* 'A full-blooded insider's account of
life inside the Kling Klang studio. This is a must read for the
robots' fans.' Prog Magazine 'Funny, cultured, detailed.' Classic
Rock, 8/10
