Krautrock (the German progressive rock genre that hit Britain in the early 1970s) has seen a huge resurgence of late, as noted in last year’s BBC documentary “Krautrock: The Rebirth of Germany.” If you like Can, Faust, Popol Vuh, Kraftwerk or Neu! then here’s a playlist to bring you up to date: Afront’s New Krautrock features the new generation of Krautrock-influenced bands, modern songs with that motorik beat and experimental rock-ambient sound.
