01 TV - Elektric Music (Esperanto)

[@stephanmunz2692]

Karl ist der George Harrison von Kraftwerk. Was ein grandioses Meisterwerk, elegant und sophisticated.

[@astro-tbo9322]

The best "Kraftwerk" track for the period after 1986, miles above what the "official" Kraftwerk has released in the past 34 years.... And it seems that even the gorgeous "Telephone Call" from 1986's "Electric Cafe" was in fact mostly composed (and sung) by Bartos.

[@justaguy1451]

"Expo 2000" and "Vitamin" are pretty great.

[@astro-tbo9322]

@@justaguy1451 I agree that "Expo 2000" is really good, but "TV" is in another league (at least in my opinion)

[@justaguy1451]

​@@astro-tbo9322 I think "TV" is a great song and Bartos song writing is pretty strong in this album, even though the songs lack a bit of character, being very derivative of Kraftwerk. And yes, I'm aware he is an ex-member of the band, but still. Also, the production is a bit amateurish, It sounds like a home recording, specially when compared with the level or perfectionism and attention to details of a Kreaftwerk production.​ Having said all that, I still think Esperanto is a brilliant album.

I've only ever heard this album on KZbin, and doubt there are many physical copies still out in the wild. But I blame the lack of polish on this being because of the limitations of compression on KZbin.

[@SeaDevilLagoon]

@@ThereMayBeLions I’ve got the CD and it sounds fantastic. This user has kindly uploaded the best quality versions of these songs available on KZbin and it’s lovely to see. Worth tracking down a CD if you can - maybe try discogs. It was never officially released on vinyl. I’ve heard plenty say this is more well produced and dynamic than The Mix.

[@amy-woakes]

absolutely love Karl Bartos, very different and talented man. defiantly marry him if I was 40 years older 😙

[@imakerman--hethehad8920]

Amy Louise Very Nice Said By You! 😉

[@espresso5512]

[@VladPetrov-k1i]

Просто Совершенство.Просто идеально.Спустя столько лет эта музыка Elektric Music звучит по прежнему свежо и совершенно.

[@demotrexx]

*Big hugs from Russia, bros! We love electric!*

[@adjustablesquelch8535]

I remember exactly where i was when i heard and bought this. 93. I was getting a train across the uk for a job interview in Reading. There was a music store (HMV? Our Price? Virgin?) at Waterloo station. I went into look around, heard this album and said 'whats this?' walked out with the CD.

[@lucasc5622]

the real question is, did you get the job?

[@cabb1976]

One of the best tracks of Electronic Music! Thanks Mr. Bartos!!

[@RundFyrkant]

Both Crosstalk and TV was sensational when they first dropped. Love this part with the very funky, unkraftwerky bassline 2:33 🙂

[@sireaintegral5174]

Solamente un lujo! Un álbum, que ya es prácticamente de colección, totalmente atípico, que va a quedar de por siempre en la historia de la cultura musical del género electrónica de la mano de Kraftwerk. Para aplaudir de pie y escucharlo con un buen equipo de audio!!! Aguante los Kraft !!!

[@ArielFunes]

No es Kraftwerk!... es uno de los álbumes solistas de Karl Bartos

[@FlashVideosDigital]

One of the best Elektric Music's songs.

[@Reckno64]

I used to browse street view on Google maps to this song. Such good memories.....❤❤❤

[@davidleon5422]

Gracias por compartir esta joya de album.saludos desde Cdmx.

[@roseanni693]

This is masterpiece, love it so much to listen and dance!!

[@frankzelazko]

i steel keep coming back to this album. amazing stuff

[@m4jor1]

Best song of This Guy have ritms like music non stop And radioactivity Very great

[@AshleyPomeroy]

I had this album. It was basically "TV" and lots of b-sides. I always wondered if the band lent Kart Bartos the blip drum samples, or if he borrowed them. But TV is lovely, and a bit sad because it's sort of pre-internet, pre-Netflix. Kraftwerk were generally subtler. The instrumental bit from 03:50 always brought a lump to my throat.

[@AshleyPomeroy]

Also, yeah - and I could have edited the comment, but I couldn't be bothered - but it always reminded me a bit of the music from Deus Ex.

[@replicantplanet]

Ashley Pomeroy totally agree, very reminiscent of those great days of early electronic music

[@Keesz1]

Ashley Pomeroy Bartos invented the 'blip drum samples' as you call them. This track is basically Music Non Stop (1991).

[@surrealfunfair]

there's also the 'choir' which was first found on "Uranium" 1975

[@aliensporebomb]

From the Vako Orchestron. Amazing piece of kit for the time.

[@user-felis]

Спасибо..вспомнил юность и свои брейк бои...thanks

[@zimich78]

Как найти это трек? Под каким названием он был выпущен?

[@rafaelsati]

Como nao conhecia esse projeto do Karl Bastos, simplesmente foda!!!

[@MisAnnThorpe]

Better than anything on the Tour de France album in my not so humble opinion.

[@lucasc5622]

oh my god the tour de france album sucks balls

[@justaguy1451]

Vitamin is great.

[@liltrixie2281]

I press the key, and watch T.V. !!

[@m4r71nk]

My favorite tune from an ex-kraftwerker. Wish they would have stayed together longer.

[@TheNeutralViewFromSwedenAKAHer]

Genuine Kraftwerk-quality

[@stevebishop4659]

very music non stop isnt it

[@Claude6516]

Excellent premier album solo de Karl Bartos ! Bravo pour cette magnifique production où l'on retrouve son talent de (ex, hélas) membre de Kraftwerk. Après Esperanto et Communication, Rendez-vous le 15 Mars 2013 pour la sortie du prochain CD : Off the Record ! :)

[@cosmicsodared]

Great track....

[@DonKamiloos]

Perfect!

[@jukkahakala5995]

Oh boy, this is my kind of music..

[@iannumanfanwright1743]

3-50 onwards is just bliss

[@WellingtonSilvaFilho123]

It's understandable it wouldn't fit in Kraftwerk aesthetics. It hasn't that subtlety when speaking of the subject. And Karl's touch is clear in its rich melody, which at first blended well with Ralf and Florian's robotic tunes, but then it didn't, which led them to release a very heterogeneous LP side in Electric Café Side B. The Telephone Call would fit better in Elektric Music's debut album than in Electric Café

[@djmaurokoboldt9700]

very very thank you

[@JuanMartinez-kq1ms]

unbelievable that you can't get this record on itunes

[@Blubatt]

+Juan Martinez I have the CD, fortunately. Thankful my Uncle gave it me, as it is a really good album

[@death0personified]

TREEEE ELETRA!!! Gxi sonas kiel estas el la 80s' aux kelkfoje antauxa. Cxu iu scias kiun jaron tiu cxi kanto faris? Mi tute guis gxin, mi amas cxiojn la lingvojn uzitan, aparte la germana. Io pri la germana sonas tre bela al mi.

[@micaelaann2385]

Ayyy canta hermoso

[@leodale7236]

Would be really cool if there were a german language version of this track, like Kraftwerk used to do

[@yotsukaido_city]

This song is Kraftwerk-quality

[@Hasintho]
