1. It's a stupid argument, I was just giving a little shout-out to ze germans, wasn't trying to kick over a bee hive.
2. Since I originated this argument (on this latest occasion), my 2 cents: It's easy to come up with a lot of techno heavyweights who were influenced by Kraftwerk, we can all agree on that. I think you'll find it extremely hard to come up with any Detroit folks that were influences ON early Kraftwerk, or for that matter, any -other- electronic artists that were influences ON Kraftwerk. They got the ball rolling, the wellspring if you will. Case Closed. Next! -Arturo
