The nominees for the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame class of 2013 have been announced and alongside Public Enemy and NWA, this year, electronic music is being recognized. Having laid the foundations for four decades of computerized Techno and Dance music,
Kraftwerk, led by founder Ralf Hütter, has influenced generations of artists in all genres, mapping musical futures yet to come. From Bowie to Daft Punk, New Order to Depeche Mode, Afrika Bambaataa to Björk, Dr Dre to Jay-Z, Radiohead to LCD Soundsystem and almost everyone in between, the mark of Kraftwerk is seemingly without end. The German electronica pioneers received a nomination this year for one of music's most prestigious awards, and if inducted, they will be the first purely electronic recording artist to join the Hall of Fame.
