Kraftwerk to perform 3D retrospective at the MoMA

German techno pioneers perform eight albums at New York's Museum of Modern Art in April.

That Kraftwerk are a revolutionary band has never been questioned. However, something often missed out of the accolades is the sheer breadth of their music – the same band that helped created electro hip hop with Trans Europe Express also contributed to ambient’s birth with ‘Ralf Und Florian’.

So, it’s great that they’ll be performing 8 of their biggest albums in order at New York’s MoMA gallery in April. The performances will, intriguingly, be in 3D, and tickets are $25 each.

Tuesday, April 10, 8:30 p.m – Autobahn (1974)
Wednesday, April 11, 8:30 p.m. – Radio-Activity (1975)
Thursday, April 12, 8:30 p.m. – Trans Europe Express (1977)
Friday, April 13, 10:00 p.m. – The Man-Machine (1978)
Saturday April 14, 8:30 p.m. – Computer World (1981)
Sunday, April 15, 8:30 p.m. – Techno Pop (1986)
Monday, April 16, 8:30 p.m. – The Mix (1991)
Tuesday, April 17, 10:00 p.m. – Tour de France (2003)
