BERLIN Recap -12/10

Hey guys!
Thanks to all those that listened in today! Had a lot of fun with it and I'm really exciting about doing this show!

To start with, here's a list of what I played (will try to list them in order!):
In most cases I've named the album title rather than the song title.


Bonaparte- Too Much

Paul Kalkbrenner- Berlin Calling

Moderat- Moderat

Apparat- Walls

Whitest Boy Alive- Dreams & Rules

Wir Sind Helden- Von Hier and Blind & Reklamation (they're the ones that sing in German!)

Peter Fox- Haus Am Meer

In terms of Berlin: EAST IS BEST! Prenzlauer Berg, Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg are the best districts in terms of clubs, cafes, cheap food. That's where the students live and the atmosphere is liberal and relaxed.

I'll name drop some clubs here: Bar 25, Club der Visionäre, Berghain, Ritterbutzke, Tape, Arena, Maria

Festivals I mentioned: Fusion, Melt!

THE Sunday Activity: Mauerpark in Prenzlauer Berg. Hosts Berlin's biggest flea market, and is also where that Karaoke is held that I mentioned.

Also worth checking out: Kastanienallee, Oranienburgerstr, Admiralsbrücke, Warschauerstr, Helmholzplatz.

INSIDER TIP: look out for the traffic lights in the East! And you can haggle at the Sunday fleamarkets!
