KRAFTWERK ANNOUNCE SPRING 2005 TOUR AND FIRST EVER-LIVE RECORDING!

NEW YORK, NY -- Astralwerks is thrilled to announce the release of
Kraftwerk's first-ever official live recording, entitled Minimum
Maximum, on June 7th, as well as a series of live dates.

Kraftwerk is considered one of the most influential bands in pop
history. In a career spanning more than 35 years, the German electro
pioneers have been endlessly saluted and mimicked by each new generation
of innovators. In the 1970s, the post-punk futurists professed their
devotion. In the 1980s & 90s, the leading lights of Chicago house along
with Detroit and Euro-techno paid homage. Possibly the most sampled band
on the planet, their music continues to inspire.

Over the last decade, Ralf Hütter, Florian Schneider, Fritz Hilpert and
Henning Schmitz have toured the world, and in 2003, as rare and splendid
as a returning comet in the night sky, Kraftwerk released Tour De France
Soundtracks. Now in 2005, having already electrified the band's global
army of disciples and following an unforgettable appearance at Coachella
2004, Kraftwerk are returning to perform a short series of shows in DC,
New York, Detroit, Chicago and LA, their first since 1998. Astralwerks
will release a 2-CD live set entitled Minimum-Maximum on June 7th
containing 22 tracks recorded throughout Europe, Japan and the US during
the band's 2004 world tour. Recorded and mixed with Kraftwerk's
legendary precision, Minimum-Maximum features all of the band's classic
compositions alongside their most recent 2004 Billboard Club chart hit
"Aerodynamik".
