I agree, as Komputer, the duo are far from special, but I like the irony behind these Kraftwerk rip-offs you all bark at so loudly. And what makes one Anthony Rother more special?! Komputer are pretentious in a way they don't pretend they stole it all so blatanly, using and abusing their spiritual fathers' formulas into funny renditions - 'Bill Gates' is one such excellent example. The influence of Kraftwerk is obviously a curse to both - the ideal and the follower.

@komputermusik And Alkan,Buxtehude, Ravel, Albeniz, Rachmaninoff, Buxtehude, Scriabin, Schubert?

I wonder if the analog synths they mention are the same ones they used when they were I Start Counting and Fortran 5.
-
and Klaus Dinger, Michael Rother ?

This really is such a ripoff of Kraftwerk, they add nothing to the "formula". I found myself rolling my eyes when they basicly rip melodies and riffs straight from Kraftwerk songs.

Beethoven? Hm... no way!
-
this russia attitude, oldstyle thing. totally kraftwerk...not very impressive.

und wolfgang?
I've heard one Komputer CD and it was one of the biggest shit I've ever heard. That was empty, mindless, pointless. This one here is not so bad but I liked Komputer when they used to be I Start Counting. Some of their songs were really great. Here they are Kraftwerk-ish but nothing more. I find Kraftwerk the ONLY genious in the music, after Debussy and Bach.
