Review
Kraftwerk’s Autobahn (2009 Remaster) revitalizes the pioneering 1974 album with crisp, enhanced sound, bringing new clarity to the group's groundbreaking electronic textures. The title track remains a mesmerizing journey, blending hypnotic synth melodies with motorik rhythms to evoke the sensation of a long highway drive. The second half of the album explores experimental electronic landscapes, from the atmospheric Kometenmelodie pieces to the mechanical hum of Mitternacht and Morgenspaziergang. This remastered edition preserves the album’s futuristic vision while enhancing its sonic depth, reaffirming Autobahn’s influence on electronic music and beyond.
