Just got back from Berlin and all in all had a pretty good time.
Theo was really rockin it hard at the Weekend club, making love to
the turntables and the eq. Nothing better than hearing Theo and
seeing the sun come up over a 12th floor view of Berlin, really nice
stuff.
To tell you the truth, I wasn't ready for what I was about to see at
the Sunday night Panarama bar (Rhythm & Sound label party). Turned up
around 7pm to hear Ricardo V banging it out to what seemed like a
crowd of Saturday night drug fuelled leftovers. Went searching for
the outside courtyard where R&S were supposed to be playing, to no
luck. Bouncer said that they had to move them inside and weren't
going to start until 8 or 9pm. Maybe i'm getting old, but I just
couldn't put up with the Villalobos bang bang and the chem'd up party
people at Panarama Bar for another two hours, so unfortunately I
missed out. Personally, just didn't seem like the right venue for R&S.
Maybe next time I get to Berlin, I'll be more used to the party vibe
there.
Peace,
Patrick.

was there too and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere at berghain/
panorama sunday afternoon. You'd just stumble accross Theo Parrish
and Carl C and Buzz Goree (who'll promote a truck at the
next Love Parade btw; which lost dr Motte as director, something i
didn't seem to have caught through 313)
for another few tips; I enjoyed being at the Tacheles spot too
(where A Guy Called Gerald has his own studio) it's something like
a worn-out building full of alternative art/goa scenery,
and graffiti rebellion - alas their terrace features Coca Cola
parasols (which is really sod if you criticize and take a stand
against majors through art at all of your four floors i
guess)
(read more about the site and the link with Gerald on http://
super.tacheles.de/cms/kuenstler/abfrag2_detail.php?id=37)
Next to Wee12kend Club (which featured Theo Parrish and Dixon
saturday night and is located on the twelveth floor of a building
overlooking the Alexanderplatz) I heard great comments on
Watergate too, it's down Kreuzberg (Falckensteinstrasse). Their
party listings impressed me anyway. I only found it strange and odd
that two third of the Wee12kend club just didn't take
too much notice of the music and its deejays - the place is a
little ill-designed for that too as the speakers surround just a
small part of the floor
And close to Watergate, at the same street, you got a gallery
called The Aquarium (a spin-off of its London's homeground) that
features Jimmy Cauty's slightly subversive art for another
few weeks from now.
I passed by Tresor's former address too - the whole place's
devasted by a massive building project which erases anything it has
been - for which i would like to question www.3leipziger.de
if they'd plan to eventually leave a marking spot for memorizing
the club - in their basement or something. I think that's something
Tresor would be appropriately memorized with, though i
don't know if the Bauwert building experts really (would) take
interest in that - i'd only hope so. Anyone who'd follow me for
that at www.3leipziger.de? ;)
