@FissionNonStop Space ship? You're backward. There's a new kind of technology, involving time travel, when we finally discover it,we'll be like happy frogs hopping around the galaxy in no time! Rocket fuel, solar energy etc is really backward technology.

@professor501 A robot dying? where r u from? Sirius planet 7? we don't have such robots in 2012.

@Someguyfrom1973 Don't feel bad, man. I just found out last year. I'd always assumed it was from one of the Emulator disks, as that's where Depeche Mode got the "Enjoy the Silence" choir from.

First dark ambient music style

The best piece from this album is Radiaktiv :3
-
ok, I am going to sound really dumb here, but I have loved Blue Monday for over 2 decades now, but have just learned (thanks Wikipedia!) that this is where this "aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh" sample is from

Like Professor501, I do imagine a robot dying of radiation poisoning, and before it dies, it sends a radio transmission ("Antenna") and warns everybody of the dangers of uranium.

The hyphenated album title displays Kraftwerk's typical deadpan humour, being a pun on the twin themes of the songs, half being about radioactivity and the other half about activity on the radio. More word plays are evident in the track listing: "Ohm Sweet Ohm", and "Radio Stars", which as a title could refer to pop stars, but upon listening is revealed to be about quasars and pulsars.

the first few seconds are like the start of robots by kraftwerk

As do I. A place like Chernobyl, Hiroshima and Nagasaki comes to mind. When I listen to this, I've always pictured in my mind a robot dying (or perhaps I should say a system failure) of radiation poisoning, speaking its final words.

Love this, reminds me of a humanities first space ship traveling outside of the solar system, and heading straight into the void; blackness, silent and vacuous in every direction.
I hope I can be on that ship.....Oh what peace it would bring me, no feeling that I have ever felt would be felt when I pass 90377 Sedna....
