Der Musikladen was a German music television programme that ran from December 13, 1972 to November 29, 1984. Around 90 episodes were aired, with most being made in the period between 1974 and 1979. The show replaced Beat-Club and in turn was replaced by Extratour. All the episodes were produced by Radio Bremen and directed by Michael Leckebusch.
A normal episode of Musikladen usually featured several live performances by guest musicians, and ran around 45 minutes. Some episodes were longer, and a few were shorter. In the 1980s, music videos were shown along with live performances. The show's theme was "A Touch Of Velvet - A Sting Of Brass" by Mood Mosaic.
Manfred Sexauer hosted the show with various others. From December 12, 1972 to September 21, 1978, Uschi Nerke from Beat-Club moderated the show with Sexauer. After she left, Sexauer was the lone host till August 20, 1979, when Auwa (August Wilhelm Thiemann) joined. She left on January 15, 1981, and Sexauer handled the hosting duties alone till June 21, 1984 when he was joined by Christine Röthig. They both moderated the show until its end on November 29, 1984.

Clips from the program can now be seen on VH1 Classic and several DVD compilations have been released.
All the episodes air frequently in an edited form, mostly after midnight, from various German TV Stations, like NDR, RBB and BFS(BR3). 3Sat also airs Musikladen occasionally.

Includes a schedule of 90 shows with complete guestlist.

Bis etwa 1975 gab es Humor-Einlagen:
Einerseits waren das die Cartoons von H. Hoier, andererseits die Auftritte der Insterburgs (später Schobert + Black).
Ein weiteres Merkmal des Musikladens waren Gogo-Girls, die verstärkt ab 1979 sowohl bei Live-Auftritten der Künstler als auch in besonders produzierten Videoclips eingeblendet wurden.
