I somehow read this as Florian Pilz collection and wondered why all the comments were about Kraftwerk. Either way, an interesting set.
It belongs in a museum. OTOH, I wish they were used to make some more music.

initially thought this is so sad.
but, whoever the collectors might be, they will surely value and preserve his epic equipment a lot more than whoever is selling.

Now we see why Kraftwerk had techno a decade before everybody else. It took a lot of tech to make techno before synths became routine musical instruments.

I wish this was going to a museum in Düsseldorf, it feels like a missed opportunity.
A Kraftwerk museum is exactly the sort of place I’d make a bee-line to as a tourist.
I always wonder how Germans view Kraftwerk, as a Brit they feel as important as the Beatles.
