Radio-Activity (German title: Radio-Aktivität) is the fifth studio album by German electronic music band Kraftwerk, released in November 1975. The band’s first entirely electronic album is also a concept album organized around the themes of radioactive decay and radio communication. All releases of the album were bilingual, with lyrics in both English and German. The album was accompanied by single release of the title track, which was successful in France and Belgium.
Background
Following the success of its 1974 predecessor Autobahn, an album based on Germany’s eponymous motorway network, Kraftwerk embarked on a tour of the United States with the “classic” lineup of the band formed by Ralf Hütter, Florian Schneider, Karl Bartos—who joined in February 1975—and Wolfgang Flür in April and May 1975.
Album title and cover art
Radio-Activity’s album title displays Kraftwerk’s typical deadpan humour, being a pun on the twin themes of the songs, half being about radioactivity and the other half about activity on the radio. Bartos revealed that the title was inspired by a chart column in the American magazine, Billboard, which featured the most played singles under the title “Radio Activity”. According to Wolfgang Flur, the concept arose as a result of the many radio interviews that Ralf and Florian had given on their American tour.
The album’s cover depicts a Volksempfänger radio which was produced in Germany during the Third Reich regime.
