Kraftwerk bracket: Everything in its Right Place (1) v. Idioteque (2)
Everything in its Right Place
(1)
Kid A
Fun Wikipedia "fact": Thom Yorke and guitarist Ed O'Brien have both cited "Everything in Its Right Place" as the moment their frustrations with a year of contentious recording sessions began to give way, and they felt they were actually getting somewhere with their experimental approach, which had initially been worrisome to O'Brien.

VS
Idioteque
(2)
Kid A
Fun Wikipedia "fact": "Idioteque" contains two credited samples of experimental 1970s "computer music." The first is several seconds of Mild und Leise, a piece by Paul Lansky, forming the four chord progression repeated throughout the song.
