The three hundred and seventh album: #307 Kraftwerk - Autobahn

Especially when covering classical tracks, it feels like the words "inspired by" can be a bit overused. There's some allusion, but you need to know what the work is referencing to actually get it. Autobahn, on the other hand, gets you into it. The 22 minute track isn't exactly driving music, but its mostly instrumental setting creates and imitates a lot of the sounds you here while driving and builds it enough in your mind to put you in that mindset.

There's something intriguing about the electronic style of Kraftwerk. For a modern listener, they're somewhat retro, with the style having evolved massively since then, but going through the list, there's also something unique about their reliance on almost just electronics surrounded by mostly still conventional bands that use synthesizers more as a novelty than a craft of its own.
