Uwe Schütte worked as a Reader in German in British higher education until Brexit. Now based in Berlin, he is Privatdozent at the University of Göttingen. Schütte has edited some ten volumes and written more than fifteen monographs on contemporary German-language literature and German pop music, with a focus on W. G. Sebald and Kraftwerk.'The Cambridge Companion to Krautrock is a valuable resource for both scholars and fans of German music of the 1970s, offering rigorous and historically grounded analysis of the kind that this supremely rich and intoxicating era of experimental rock and electronic music deserves.' Simon Reynolds, author of Rip It Up and Start Again: Postpunk 1978–84

'An absorbing and entirely readable study.' Shindig!
