kraftwerk Über Alles

for some reason i was reading kraftwerk’s wikipedia page, and found this quote:

‘So you see another group, like Tangerine Dream, although [it is] German, [it has] an English[-language] name, so [it creates] on-stage an Anglo–American identity, which we completely deny. We want the whole World to know that we are from Germany, because the German mentality – which is more advanced – will always be part of our behaviour. We create out of the German language, the mother-language, which is very mechanical; we use it as the basic structure of our music.’

i think it is good to get some european perspective. it may help us become “more advanced.”
