More Kraftwerk

After listening to the track over and over again:I concluded that there where about 8 sounds that where repeated that I could hear. I created a timeline for this song and marked on the timeline when each sound appeared in the song. The results can be seen below. Hopefully you should be able to see a pattern created for the music

  1. The º green dots represent a big electronic type symbol sound.
  2. The smaller dots represent quieter/smaller symbol sounds – that are almost background
  3. The “/” represent a sort of wavery background repeating beat.
  4. The pink represents voice:

  5. [ – expo
  6. a – english voice
  7. Eszett (B shape) – german voice. Eszett are german characters which represent “ss” e.g schloss can also be written with an Eszett on the end instead of a double ss
  8. The ⊿ – triangle shape represents a swoshing sound that starts quite quiet and then gradually increases in pitch
  9. The W – represents a sound at 1:04 – 1:22 to me the sound looked like a repeating WWWWW shape. To me this sound makes the music and is important. Hence the box surrounding it to help make it stand out

Please note: I’m not a musical buff!

I found this poster was a bit tooo busy and needed some breathing space, hence the above image.
