I went to Youtube for the Radioaktivity vid and someone commented this: "Genious 
lyrics. It's a pun between pop radio and power plants...," (which would make 
the song's spoken-word intro morbidly hilarious!). Anyone know if there's 
any truth to it all being a sly pun?
I also noticed that in this video, the band members look like Ricky Gervais, 
Vince Clarke, and the short one looks like Eminem! Bald Hook-nose (j/k) also 
reminds me of someone but I can't recall.
 
anyway..

A bit Power Station trivia: 
Giorgio Moroder is the only artist I have ever heard/read is not at all 
impressed by Kraftwerk.  He calls them simplistic and clearly dismisses them. 
Only cuz he's GIORGIO MORODER have I not sent him hate mail.

This KFK/U96 amv might interest you, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B5bWy4ui-4

Leftfield and Lydon: that (great) combination prompted a mate of mine to buy me 
Leftism back in the day.  The rest of the album was, of course, fantastic.

Kraftwerk were amazing - so far ahead of their time it's almost hard to believe.

Early Chemical Brothers rocked.  Also Fat Boy Slim at times.

Does Afro Celt count as electronic?  They were incredible live (also incredible 
on CD, but something else live...)  Of course, Jamie Reid (artist for God Save 
the Queen) did their artwork - lots of punk/electronic crossover.

Listening to Radioactivity right now.

I love a pile of electronic music, notably all things Kraftwerk, Underworld, 
Orbital, Leftfield, Coil (if they 'count' as electronic) and a clutch of others. 
Kinda appeals to a different side of the brain than does, say, The Misfits or 
The 'Pistols or, for that matter, Killing Joke, but that doesn't make it any 
less engrossing. To my mind, anyway.
