I have never heard of a Kraftwerk Roblox stream! What is it?

Eno got paid $35k. That'd be a bit more realistic payment than what Kraftwerk got :)

Yes, I recon it was the whole "PR package", not just the 4 seconds of music,...which actually is not very good at all (I suppose I can say that as I am a big Kraftwerk fan).

Of course; who knows about these artists? Could have taken weeks or months as far as we know!

Yes, I would have to agree with you on that. Kraftwerk name was huge at the time. Still is! Reminds me when Eno of the Roxy Music fame produced the 95 Microsoft sound. He got lot less though.

Nice! How many different edits does it have on it? ...or just the one version?

It was 400,000 DM which was roughly €200,000 in 2000. This is about 220,000 USD in today's money.

It's crazy, man! They did get some neg. feedback from it, so decided to do a full song in four different languages after that.
