Two German electronic music legends and pioneers on a joint album: Hamburg dancefloor act U96 and WOLFGANG FLÜR (ex-KRAFTWERK) present timelessly futuristic beats and melodies. Globally renowned German musicians with pioneering roles are rare, except perhaps in electronic music. KRAFTWERK are icons par excellence, having made unprecedented music history since the 1970s and are rightly considered the forefathers of all subsequent artificial sounds. In the 1990s, the globally emerging rave and techno scene was unthinkable without the legacy of the Düsseldorf band – and German acts are once again at the forefront. Hamburg dancefloor pioneers U96, world-famous for chart hits such as 'Das Boot', 'Love Sees No Colour', and 'Night In Motion', have sold over 15 million records. Early in the new millennium, U96 masterminds HAYO LEWERENTZ and INGO HAUSS met electric drummer WOLFGANG FLÜR, who was directly involved in KRAFTWERK's most important albums during their heyday (1972 to 1987). Their first collaborative tracks have already been released, and now comes 'Transhuman,' a 14-song album that, with a deliberate reduction in sound and content, reveals the astonishing intersections of these era-defining musicians. An absolute highlight between electro-pop and club music! Bonus tracks: the current U96 single 'Let Yourself Go,' plus a remix.
