User talk:Kraftwerk Orange

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kraftwerk Orange is a fictional band featured in the British sitcom, The Mighty Boosh. The name is a satire of both the musical band Kraftwerk and the film A Clockwork Orange. The combination of these two themes can be seen in the band's costumes, which are white jump suits, and the lead singer's face makeup, which mimics the makeup of "Alex" from A Clockwork Orange.

In the episode "Electro", Vince Noir (Noel Fielding) joins an electro band, primarily to impress the female band members. However, Vince offends the male band member, whose departure leaves the band struggling without its keyboard player. His sidekick, Howard Moon (Julian Barratt), joins the band in their first and final performance as a quartet, before he is overcome by "The Spirit of Jazz".

The female members of Kraftwerk Orange are actually played by the British electro-punk band, Robots in Disguise (featuring Dee Plume and Sue Denim).
