It was themed around the first-class rail network that criss-crossed Europe from the 1950s, a manifestation of the vision of a new borderless postwar continent. The network ran close to Kraftwerk’s Kling Klang studio in Düsseldorf, where the four members of the group, founded in 1969 by Ralf Hütter and Florian Schneider, worked. (They said of themselves: “We are not artists or musicians. We are workers.”) \n\nKraftwerk were not universally admired: rock purists, suspicious of anything to do with synthesizers and electronics, denigrated their supposed lack of “authenticity”. But by the mid-1970s Kraftwerk, with their modernist, forward-moving music, were winning admirers globally.\n\nhttps://ig.ft.com/life-of-a-song/trans-europe-express.html", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3584158, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3584158/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-11-28T16:21:34-08:00", "show": 65233, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65233/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "ASCEND", "track_id": "aff091bf-0186-416b-af20-2f4f257c5d8d", "recording_id": "beb65387-7bdd-488f-bcfd-76f61a21a5cc", "artist": "Kelly Lee Owens", "artist_ids": [ "9d88eaab-f90a-4fbe-b84f-20da5518cd26" ], "album": "KELLY", "release_id": "f932c03c-cea9-4c87-a478-308c68b98f19", "release_group_id": "c9fae21b-3a92-4051-ad35-a74f899dd83b", "labels": [ "dh2" ], "label_ids": [ "6bb3e6d6-3655-4014-9a68-eff6df75e450" ], "release_date": "2025-11-21", "rotation_status": "Medium", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "And brand new music from Kelly Lee Owens! From her Bandcamp: \"'KELLY' is her most direct and dancefloor-ready project to date, a tight, urgent body of work designed for the clubs\"\n\nThe club-minded four-tracker is about “embodying sound and those collective, physical experiences we only really have in clubs or at music events,” the Welsh artist shared in press material.\n\n“Sonically, it’s very visceral. I’ve been drawn to sounds that sit on the edge: ominous, uneasy, sometimes even uncomfortable. That’s just where I've been emotionally, and I think the world reflects that too. There’s this constant push and pull between wanting to rise above the chaos, and sometimes, willingly sinking into it.”\n\nhttps://djmag.com/news/kelly-lee-owens-shares-new-ep-kelly-listen\n\nhttps://kellyleeowens.bandcamp.com/album/kelly", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3584155, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3584155/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-11-28T16:15:49-08:00", "show": 65233, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65233/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Go", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "The Chemical Brothers", "artist_ids": [], "album": null, "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": null, "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Extended Mix\n\nWatch the official music video here: https://youtu.be/LO2RPDZkY88?si=Z8Q9UNHtgK0Kf0rK", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3584154, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3584154/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-11-28T16:12:47-08:00", "show": 65233, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65233/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "Welcome to the Black Friday edition of Drive Time w Kevin Cole! \n\nSend us your requests!\nemail dj@kexp.org\ntext (206) 903-5397", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" }, { "id": 3584152, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3584152/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-11-28T16:08:28-08:00", "show": 65233, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65233/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Stayin' In Black", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Bee Gees + AC/DC", "artist_ids": [], "album": null, "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": null, "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Clever mashup perfectly pairs AC/DC‘s “Back in Black” and the Bee Gees classic “Stayin’ Alive” in disco-rock harmony.
