It is argued that Kraftwerk's 1983 track 'Tour de France' spawned the birth of 80s Westcoast Electro, with artists such as Egyptian Lover, and Dr. Dre's 'World Class Wreckin' Cru' all incorporating the infamous heavy breathing, similar drum patterns and tempo from the Kraftwerk track.

This mix is dedicated to showing the influence of that very track, with its signature breathing (imitating a tired cyclist taking part in the Tour de France) and other percussive elements layered throughout the mix.
Enjoy!
Disclaimer: This mix has more breathing than a Yoga class...
