The Catalogue (German title: Der Katalog) is a proposed forthcoming box set consisting of eight albums by Kraftwerk that were released from 1974 to 2003. All albums have been digitally remastered, with most of the cover art redesigned, including rare photographs in the liner notes that were not part of each album's original release.
