Their music embraces punk, hip-hop, disco, '60s pop and rock from France, the UK and the US, as well as electro and new-wave elements. Title album: Musique automatique; Label: Cherry Red; Release Date: 8 Oct 2001; Catalogue No.: ANALOG 007CD. Stereo Total fanpage http://www.geocities.com/shusti/stereototal/musinfl.html lists Kraftwerk among band's influences. Official page http://www.stereototal.com French band The Youngsters has issued not long ago an album called Lemon: Orange (F-Communications, 1 Oct 2001, Catalogue No.: F 144CD) which comprises plentiful Kraftwerk reminiscences. http://www.fcom.fr/youngsters British urban-folk trio Hefner have just published an album named "Dead Media" (Too Pure, 24th September 2001, Catalogue No.: PURE 115LP) with many Kraftwerk influences in it. The following is quoted from their official webpage http://www.hefnet.com/: "The band were also (and still are) listening to a lot of electronic music at the time. (Current stuff like 'Mouse on Mars' and 'Plone' but also 'Kraftwerk', 'Human League' [Louise, a cover of the Human League song, is included in the album], etc.), and we had been starting to buy up old analogue synthesizers. We knew this factor would inform much of the sound of the next album."

However, all those other albums have a number of bonus tracks on them (TT has 7, KB has 6, JT has 2), so is it too much to hope the same is true for The Man Machine ? Well... I doubt it, but possibly it has been digitally remastered or something -- it's always sounded terribly hissy on CD. I'd also certainly appreciate the Man Machine track carrying on a couple of minutes longer -- it fades out far too quickly IMO.

But like the creation of "Faith in the Future", Wiles' expertise didn't appear overnight; rather, it's been developing gradually since he first heard Kraftwerk's "The Man Machine" as a kid growing up in Anaheim across the street from No Doubt's Gwen and Erik Stefani. "Back in the early '80's, late '70's, that sort of music was like, alien" says Wiles. "You can't think of it now, because you've got so used to hearing electronic music and synthesizers for the last 15 years. It just sounds commonplace, but back then it was really peculiar. And I'd been kind of weaned on rock music all my life, and then I heard that. It was such a sharp contrast tonally and timbrelly. When I heard it, I was laughing from nervousness because it was so different . So I took the tape home and I listened to it a couple of times, and I was like, "Wow, I really like this". " Then "Computer World" came out, and it really summed up a lot of my ideas and my personality traits. I've always been pretty much into futuristic themes and science fiction and it really fit me to a T. [...] Tim Wiles, a.k.a. Uberzone. I had the fortune of seeing him (accompanied by an amazing drummer) live last night. His concert was unbelievable. I even heard an unmistakable sample of "Boing" (from you know where) in there somewhere. He kicked off an amazingly long and enjoyable night of music at Phoenix Nita's Hideaway which it was then followed by DJ Adam Freeland and after him, the icing on the cake: The Crystal Method, whom unfortunately didn't had much of luck because of technical difficulties throughout their gig, up to a point where one of the duo grabbed the mic and yelled: "does anybody know where fucking Freeland is so he can play some fucking tunes while we try to fix our shit up here?" It was a fun night, to say the least. I didn't get to wear my Man Machine t-shirt to the concert, only because it hasn't reached its destination yet. It's only been a month since I've ordered it. I only hope it gets here before Christmas. Cheers!
