schlager,
krautrock,
Neue Deutsche Welle, the Frankfurt hip-hop movement, Berlin trance, a.o.
with mentions of the importance of
Kraftwerk,
Wolf Biermann,
Can,
Rammstein's
connection with Slovenians
Laibach, and ending with
Trio's "
Da Da Da." - all of this
in the last 20 minutes of the show. It turns out that the woman he was interviewing
was originally from Britain, but moved to Germany for the "scene."
The woman was
Robyn Hitchcock's daughter,
Maisie.
