  • Summary

  • No figure loomed larger over Krautrock, as a genre, than legendary producer/ sound engineer Konrad "Conny" Plank ... and we've been looking for an opportunity to talk about him. Then we discovered the Rastakraut Pasta LP that he and Dieter Moebius recorded and released in 1980. Problem solved!

    From behind the board in Cologne's Rhenus Studio and then his own converted farmhouse in Wolperath, Plank put on tape some (most?) of the best German kosmische and electronic music of the '70s. From there he went on to develop the sound signatures of post-punk acts like Devo, Eurythmics, and Ultravox.

    Gone too soon at age 47, Plank is (and damn well should be) remembered as Krautrock's Midwife. Join us as we explore his life and career and then go track by track through Rastakraut Pasta on Episode 16 of CBK!
