THIS MONTH'S MOJO magazine features an exclusive interview with Kraftwerk's Ralf Hütter - co-founder and master controller of electronic music's legendary pioneers.
Celebrating the imminent reissue of their remastered back catalogue, Hütter guides MOJO through 40 years of technological experimentation and musical barrier-breaking.
"We worked like a theatrical company, like craftsmen," reveals Hütter. "Not the usual teenage boy group". Their peerless run of albums, from 1974's Autobahn to 2003's Tour De France Soundtracks, has seen the German collective rocket pop music into the future. Throughout it all, Kraftwerk have maintained their status as relentless innovators and conceptual trailblazers, mesmerising the likes of David Bowie and Iggy Pop .
Now, after years of silence, Kraftwerk are one of the few true legends you can still catch in concert. "Before we were the outsiders from Germany and now we are sampled everywhere," says Hütter. "We're with Jay-Z, Fergalicious, with Coldplay..."
Head back to the future by checking out our 13-pages of exclusive Kraftwerk programming (including a star-studded guide to all their classic albums) in the new issue of MOJO magazine - on sale Tuesday, September 29!

Kraftwerk: The ONLY band to ever make me cry at a concert. They were simply catastrophically wonderful in Dublin last year.
Their song Europe Endless is the most beautiful song ever written. Long live Ralf!!
