Kraftwerk - Spacelab (1978) [Cover by Synthfluencer]

"Spacelab" was published by Kraftwerk in 1978 on their 7th studio album "Die Mensch-Maschine" (The Man Machine). The album is one of Kraftwerk's best-known and most successful releases and is considered a milestone in pop history. Alongside the top hits "Die Roboter" and "Das Model", "Spacelab" is also one of Kraftwerk's most iconic songs. The song received special attention when Kraftwerk performed it during their 2018 tour in Stuttgart together with German astronaut Alexander Gerst, who was live from the International Space Station (ISS).
With the cover, I stick to the original version as far as possible. I only added the radio announcements at the beginning and in the middle of the song. The musical structure is not very complicated: I play the lead voice with the Kawai S-100F synthesizer, which is about as old as the song. The prominent pad is played by the Behringer Pro-800. The strings I played with the Waldorf Streichfett. The bass arpeggio is a layered sound I created with the Behringer Model-D, the deep filter bass with the Behringer Neutron. The vocoder voices are self-recorded with the help of the Yamaha MODX. At the beginning you can hear the Behringer PRO-1.
In addition to my own recordings, I use audio, video and picture material from the NASA archive (images.nasa.gov/).

This Spacelab seems "Tardisised"?
I hear Dr. Who influences?
Areth I correct? ;)

[@Xogroroth666]

I love it!
Truly great job there.

😁Not intentionally... I tried to stick to the original. But actually I made a Doctor Who cover using the same synth for the lead voice 😉czcams.com/video/hnJlinHNtQI/video.htmlsi=OiBaSlq9oQ4EkAj0

@@synthfluencer Did you notice the Dr who influences?
Just asking.
Really love the whole, even if unintentional. ;)
Question:
Could you please do an instrumental cover of Gary Numan's Bed of Thorns? :)
