Krautrock is rock and electronic music that originated in Germany in the late 1960s. The term was popularized in the English-speaking press. Later German media started to use it as a term for all German rock bands from the late 1960s and 1970s while abroad the term specifically referred to more experimental artists who often but not always used synthesizers and other electronic instruments.
