Kraftwerk - Radio-Activity (2026)

Synopsis

Kraftwerk's 1975 album 'Radio-Activity' celebrates 50 years with a brand-new Dolby Atmos mix created by Kraftwerk founder Ralf Hütter and engineer Fritz Hilpert from the original 16-track master tapes at their Kling Klang Studio. The Blu-Ray Audio disc also contains a 5.1 surround mix (rendered from the Dolby Atmos mix) and a Stereo mix of the band's 2009 remaster. Kraftwerk is unique, pristine, profound and beautiful, all at once. Decades may pass, but their streamlined synthetic symphonies stand outside time, as fresh as tomorrow, transcendent and sublime. Originally released in 1975, Kraftwerk's ethereal tribute to broadcast communications was the centerpiece in-between 'Autobahn' and 'Trans Europe Express', a trilogy of masterworks that found the band at their artistic pinnacle. The sweeping synth melodies are in full futuristic force here and 'Radio-Activity' is a pivotal and mesmerizing album in every way.
