Karl Bartos, ex-member of electro-pioneers Kraftwerk (part of Kraftwerk's classic lineup) has announced the follow up to his 2003 album Communication. Bartos' new album Off The Record features 12 tracks that were taken from song ideas he wrote during Kraftwerk's heyday (he kept a secret acoustic diary and jotted down ideas while on the road).
