Thread von FRAKTUS - Deutschland's great lost experimental cold wave band

Truly the greatest of lost German media!

So experimental that even Blixa Bargeld admits Neubauten would have been nothing without them! They invented the drum machine! They pioneered sampling! They revolutionised music with homemade intruments combining the flute and the hair dryer! More extreme German synth weirdness than Kosmischer Läufer!!!

When I first saw this, for about a minute and a half, I genuinely believed I was watching the greatest 80s band I'd never heard of. It's just SO lovingly recreated. The hairstyles. The uniforms. The theremin. The RANDOM FLUTE SOLOS. The futuristic interweb spaceship made in the shape of a BICYCLE HELMET.

There are so many in-jokes, someone has really truly done their research with this. I don't even want to chase down the film; I just want to enjoy the attention to detail in the pastiche:
