I’ve generally been in good spirits lately so I was wondering when my soul would get kicked in the fucking teeth.

Florian Schneider passing deserves own thread rather than just mentioning it in a Celebrity (???) Deaths thread....

This forum is about electronic music thanks to him.

I always liked his friendly but reserved personality 

Kraftwerk in general always had this sincere face value to it - what you hear is what you get - and this comically efficient interview with Florian reminds me of that

 

[iococoi]

godspeed

 

[MaartenVC]

rest in peace Florian ♥
