Very good interview. I particularly like JS's description of the members of the band;
Christopher Franke was - as before the rhythm man, who also mastered sequencing perfectly, Edgar Froese was the sound designer and catalyst, and I was the conventional musician.

Which is just exactly how I imagined they worked.
hmm and there was I thinking that Franke was merely a good reader of instruction manuals

Hmmm... maybe so - Chris was, after all, a drummer. But a sequencer wasn't and isn't only a rhythm generator.
I would love to hear a Froese, Schmoelling, Baumann collaboration to see what could have happened
