Can the classic Kraftwerk track Autobahn be done using only 'analog' instruments?
I wanted to give it a try and here it is. Guitars, bass and drums (these are from a box, but it's the idea that counts).
I have to say I was ready to give up halfway through, after recording the first part and taking ages for it. The second part was recorded in about an hour and is much better I think, probably because I just let go of doing a faithful cover. Anyway, enjoy it for what it is.

Feedback appreciated. As always please be gentle

Very beautiful sound!!! I love it!
I was listening around on youtube of various covers of AutoBahn, and yours is the best! I wish it was the whole thing!

Not a shock that this translates so well to summery 60s sounds....Kraftwerk were inspired by the Beach Boys, and Autobahn is the clearest example of that.

@mikiexz Point taken, you're right. I should have said 'conventional' instead of 'analog'. Thanks for the compliment, I appreciate it!

You know because of the very surfy sounding guitar you could try a surf beat feel in the drums and a real drummer, but overall really cool.

Very good version my friend. I recognise those drum sunds. I'm sure they come from a keyboard called Yamaha PSS680, 780 or other a like as I used to have a PSS680. Do you do any other Kraftwerk covers? I'm in the middle of doing a version of autobahn track by track as I've done with Neon Lights & others. You're welcome to visit & subscribe to my channel, to hear my version of Neon Lights with quite a bit of wrapping,  R F Elecric & others I've done & about to up load. Cheers!

Not bad, but it might sound better in swing time with this instrumentation. Also, the vocals need to be brought out a bit more.

"Can the classic Kraftwerk track Autobahn be done using only 'analog' instruments? " - yes because it was and infact yours is more digital. - but good cover all the same
