And an interesting fact is how Kraftwerk influenced Afrika Bambaata among many other hip hop artists. Why not, everyone enjoys good beats. But Kraftwerk's origin story is even more interesting.
They wanted to create a new sound, because just listening to english music was surrender. And you could say that electronic music is the contemporary european music. So hip hop has a bit german music DNA in it.
