Hi synthpoplovers, perhaps you'd stumbled over my profiles or posts in the web - now I am thankful to have the chance to discuss this simple question into this famous blog. What do you think about my music? Is it typical "German Synthpop" or "German Electronica". It would not be wondering, because I grew up near Duesseldorf in the 70s. But I was no really big Kraftwerk fan. But hear yourself: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCme9rAVwXZiEk_jSNfMsmZw
(There are also several music examples on Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Amazon, iTunes, Beatport...) I'm exited to hear from you! Bernhard aka The Boy Called Hedge

Thank you for the first chat.
This is a very interesting subject.
I hope so, John :-) On one side, bands like Kraftwerk really set an early benchmark - on the other side, musicians like me - of the 2nd or 3rd generation (DAF, Propaganda, Krupps, Liasons Dangereuses) wanted to changed it. And there were also some other unknown German electronic influenced artists like Michael Rother, GinaX, Supermax in the 70s or later the first Electronic/Techno Music DJs like DJ Hell, Väth, Westbam or Anthony Rother in the 80s. I think, it was a long evolution in sound parallel to the technical revolution of music production - although British Synthpop musicians had much more success with it and perfected this music style in the direction of Pop = Popularity, So in some way, Germany seems to had been the laboratory for this music style.
@The Boy Called Hedge Spot on! Time for rework in the lab
