My tribute to a classic!  Kraftwerk's Computer World was one of my "go to" albums during the 80's.  I spent many hours writing code on my TRS-80 as a teenager while listening to the original vinyl version. 

Now, 35 years after its original release, I found myself with the urge to feed my own interpretation into the soundbox, trying hard to keep it true to the original English language version (in most places).  

I haven't gotten my hands on a Stylophone (yet!) so the sounds are all made from digital synths that I tweaked the best I could to simulate the analog.  

I started with a 4-bar drum machine loop, and played everything into Logic on my Axiom keyboard layer by layer.  Then edited like mad and mixed it.    

This is best experienced with headphones, so grab a pair if you have 'em, and enjoy!  

And remember, It's more fun to compute!
