‘Foundation (Best Of, Compilation)’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. I am not a real Rock: Electronic music type of person, but i have to admit ‘Foundation (Best Of, Compilation)’ really is amazing. This is one of the best Cd’s Die Krupps has dropped to date. Unappreciated gift to Rock: Electronic
is simply marvelous.
Kuss Den Stahl (Live) is one of the more up-tempo songs on Foundation (Best Of, Compilation). This track is clearly meant to showcase Die Krupps’s vocal abilities. Diese Nacht (Live) actually sounds so joyous, that you can practically see a smile on Die Krupps’s face. Although Alles Verbrennt (Live) is very melodic it is far from sad. Stahlwerksynfonie (Live) is the albums lead single as well as biggest hit. Some call Goldfinger (Long Version) from Foundation (Best Of, Compilation) as a quiet invitation of an artist to sit and listen. You have to get essence of the The Machineries Of Joy (Wahre Arbeit, Wahrer Lohn)’s power, to truly understand this masterpiece. The Machineries Of Joy (True Work Mix) is kind of track that compels you to skip back and drink it in one more time before moving on through Foundation (Best Of, Compilation). Die Krupps must have run out of lyrics on the next track The Machineries Of Joy (Join The Rhythm Of Machine Mix). Put Germaniac (Alternative Mix) into car stereo for your highway driving It’s very catchy and easy to get into which is what you want in a song. In Germaniac (Speed Version) full palet of sound is used by Die Krupps to accentuate the presentation.
