Coachella '08: Aphex Twin, Goldfrapp added to lineup; Kraftwerk plan warm-up dates



Goldfrapp and Aphex Twin have been floating around the rumor mill for a while as possible adds to this year's Coachella festival. Well, now the debate is settled: The U.K. acts will join the thousands of heat seekers in Indio next month.   Kate Nash, Serj Tankian, Redd Kross, and Adele have also been added to the line-up. I don't know about you but I'm so stoked to see Aphex Twin.

In other Coachella news electronic pioneers Kraftwerk, who are one of the most sampled bands in pop history, have added April tour dates in select cities. These pre-Coachella shows are Kraftwerk's first U.S. dates since the 2005 release of their first ever official live CD/DVD Minimum-Maximum. The German quartet, who put on a stunning state-of-the-art performance at 2004's event, have helped create genres like electronica, dance, and even hip-hop.

Kraft services:

Sat - 4/19 Minneapolis, MN @ Myth
Sun - 4/20 Milwaukee, WI @ Eagles Ballroom
Wed - 4/23 Denver, CO @ The Fillmore Auditorium
Sat - 4/26 Indio, CA @ Coachella Music Festival
