Real Scenes: Berlin | Resident Advisor

[@Rekoner45]

I love the fact there is no mention of Berghain

[@Desiringmachine]

There's a lingering shot on its facade around 5.00

[@jbwarkentin]

massive omission

[@scottend5239]

Why do you love that fact?

[@leonawroth2516]

@@scottend5239 because it's an old meme and overused. Berghain is awesome, but there are many other clubs in Berlin on a similar level. No need to stand in line for over an hour and may not even get in.

[@scottend5239]

@@leonawroth2516 I still think it's an odd fact to love. Whatever your opinion on whether the club is worth waiting to get into or not, it's pretty important in the entire Berlin dance scene.

[@Semiosphere]

Wonderful document that captures a lot of the feelings about techno. I wish you did another one!

This Berlin elitism is so stupid and funny.

[@Herhohu]

"Wow thats so Berlin!" On some days I don´t even hear a single german word on the streets, just french, english and spanish...

[@TastyTherapy]

But isint that a good thing? those people escaped their countries because they fell in love with the culture in Berlin, so what makes you think that they want to change it? foreigners in Berlin embrace Berlin to its fullest.

[@Herhohu]

The thing is, Berin used to be different like 12-16 years ago and because of how it was back then, more and more people came to Berlin (if I would live some where different I wolud also want to live in Berlin). But because everyone came here and wanted to live in the cool city, Berlin changed a lot. All the cool districs are supper expensive and the people living there for 40 years had to move, because of gentrification and now there are living rich hipsters that think they enbody the Berlin spririt. Its not a bad thing people are visiting the city. It is nice to talk with them and they bring money but their behavior is often anoying, they feel like because they are in a cool and hip city they can do everything they want.

[@juStb4u]

‘The dirt the grey buildings...definitely inspiring’ ☺️ oh man I finally got to visit tresor this past December when on my 3rd euro tour...and what a fucking gem that place is. The grit, the darkness, the concrete...all the little nuances and alcoves...the jail bars. So German so amazing 👌🏻

This was a really interesting, well-produced and directed documentary. Thanks for creating this! Really outstanding storytelling here, you captured the "why" which can be elusive. I especially liked the opening soundbites and all the excellent music.

Soy de México, al principio de mi viaje por Europa (Irlanda) dudaba entre visitar Ibiza o Berlín, después de ver este vídeo mi duda quedó desvanecida a medida que escuchaba las entrevistas y el beat de fondo.

[@tifacoba]

Gänsehaut

[@landwirtschaft2116]

Would really like to see a part two - with the scene in the rest of the world around evolving quiet a bit since then, Berlin feels kinda mediocre by now. Would be interesting to shine a light on that fact and challenge the city a little bit…

[@fordeboi]

I fully understand what Berliners are saying as a Londoner some of our clubs are just rammed full of idiots that are not there for the Music, and if they are feel that they can elbow and even punch they way to the front. Mainly southern Europeans they can be a nightmare. Would love to visit some of the Techno clubs in Berlin especially Tresor because of it's impact but really have this fear of being labelled a loud mouthed Brit because of some idiots that have given me a bad name.

[@fordeboi]

very docile person that loves his techno and it's history!!

[@gabriele223]

Better stay home then, so you don't meet any annoying southern european.

[@TheFlush1980]

Yeah I'm Dutch and I go clubbing almost every week. Mostly in the south of the netherlands and belgium. A couple of weeks ago we went clubbing in amsterdam and we hopped into Escape just for a laugh. OMG, what a tourist trap! The music was horrible, it had champagne VIP sections and it was full of tourists who didn't have a clue about a more gritty club scene and alternative club music. It made me appreciate my regular clubs more. I usually like the lesser known, smaller clubs because they have a more cosy feel and cater towards a niche audience.

[@michaelbennett4931]

@@TheFlush1980 yeah same. Me and my friend had the unfortunate thing of going to Melkweg in Amsterdam. such a tourist trap!!! Theres so much more to be discovered here in Adam though

[@sameast3512]

I’m from England and have been to Tresor and other clubs in Berlin, it’s not about where you are from just as long as your respectful and cool! If you get turned away just try again you will get in eventually! I loved it that much I am moving there, so much better than London which is as you say, is full of idiots lol

[@paulofavaretto1]

I would like to know what the berliners have against tourists in eletronic parties? I am from Brasil and a few days ago I was in Berlin. I try to party in two clubs but none of them let me in. I had already readed about the door policy before trying to enter in the clubs and I couldnt understand whats the meaning of it...

[@lsamoa]

It's just snobbism.

[@chesterwig]

Totally. There is a lot of soft racism in Germany. Go to London and you won't experience this. It will fucking cost you though.

[@papafrita909]

Yeah i know, sucks. I went to Berlin in 2014, got without any problem into Watergate and Berghain. Went to Berlin again 2 weeks ago, Friday they were not letting me in Kater Blau, despite I was telling the bouncer every single dj playing that night, luckily I was on guestlist (which I wasn't sure) so got in (and yeah the place was amazing), but the door policy was fuckin annoying. Then tried Berghain 3 times and got rejected, really wanted to catch Tony Humphries (1 girl and guy behind me in the queue didn't have a clue who Tony is and got in without any problem as they were regulars). Went to Tresor which was really good tho, but Berghain is Berghain, and sucks travelling all the way to Berlin and getting rejected at door, as Berlin for me is a pretty shitty city and its only worth for its amazing clubbing scene.

[@Noak420]

They are trying to keep out people who don’t fit in to the club and would ruin the vibe / experience for other people, I think this is very hard to understand for people who are not used to this kinda door policy

[@Noak420]

paulo favaretto I would suggest going to a rave if you can’t get in to any clubs

[@elisavieira737]

Really nice video thanks

[@Monzyboy]

lol they didn't mention the drugs

[@DeBrockGallery]

what difference does it make?

[@maussau9067]

He said we have all done illegal things and we're trying to make illegal legal. so I think he made his 'drug point ' quite clearly.

[@volgin]

@@maussau9067 I think the 'illegality' that he is talking about is more about the parties being set up in an abandoned place and had to be moved every time. Illegal parties turned into those clubs being legal and registered.

[@carinah2212]

Patrick De Brock Gallery The difference is, that all the partys would‘t run 36 hours or longer without people who take drugs. The partys wouldn‘t make that much fun and wouldn‘t give people such a special feeling of freedom etc. Taking drugs makes a big difference in this story. But it‘s ok not to talk about, because there are a lot of people who would‘t understand...

[@jasonevans6590]

Q

[@jazzman5115]

Berlin hates Turks? There's districts where foreigners and their descendants are more than half of the population and a lot of them are Turks. If you didn't get in a club it's most likely because you're a tourist, not because you're a Turk.
