Hi,

I am off to Berlin at the end of the month for a few days.......anyone got any suggestions for deep house clubs??

I am also looking for records shops ..... selling deep house, soul, funk etc.

Thanks,

Tom

not sure about the styles you listed but I managed to go to tresor when I was in Berlin and had a FANTASTIC night of techno in this wicked concrete bunker. I heard they were closed down or something, but if they're not and you like good techno check out Tresor.

Tresor (finaly) closed last week

gutted

but, by some coincidence - check out the most recent Breezeblock on radio1 http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio1_a ... reezeblock

I just logged onto it to see what was on this week and it just so happens it's a berlin special!! Syncronicity I think! - you've got about 7 days to listen to it.

Bit of a coincidence - as I'm listening to the breezeblock show that I just happened to tune into right after I read this question of what to do in Berlin......

it's EXACTLY what you want to hear - listen to this show, I think you'll have a pretty good idea where to start by then I would imagine!.

When you arive in Berlin, get a Zitty or Tipp straight away. They have the weekly party agenda inside, only one of the two has it for one specific week.
Most clubs are in there, but some aren't. For those you'll have to use your social skills.

record shops:
Space Hall
Hardwax

[edit]erm, soul, funk? not in those shops, deep house maby[/edit]

Most recordshops employees I've encountered in Berlin are assholes, because they are fed up with tourists or something. Also they know about the unlisted parties, so you'll have to be really nice to them before they'll even tell you IF there is a party, let alone where and when...
