Krautrock

Krautrock is an experimental and avant-garde music genre that emerged in West Germany in the late 1960s and early 1970s, characterized by its fusion of rock, electronic, and psychedelic elements. It broke away from traditional rock structures with its use of hypnotic rhythms, innovative electronic sounds, and improvisational techniques, often creating a trance-like experience. Notable bands like Kraftwerk, Can, and Neu! pushed the boundaries of music, influencing genres from electronic to post-rock.
