Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The late Conny Plank turned out to be the right man in the right place at the right time to help midwife krautrock – to enable that era's experimental innocence to bear such disparate fruit, from early Kraftwerk, Neu! and Cluster recordings, to interested parties like Eno, Eurythmics and Ultravox.
Among other things, as Moebius & Plank's “Conditionierer” demonstrates, he was a crucial component in the creation of the classic krautrock motorik beat associated with Neu!. This engrossing 4CD set features two discs of Conny's productions, alongside a disc of remixes by such as Fujiya & Miyagi, and a fourth disc of his final live recording, with Moebius and Arno Steffen in Mexico in 1987.
