Eh, I just came back from there and it was great as always.

It definitely seems to be on the wrong track, though... someone had written "ihr hadt die ganzen stadt verkauft" on a wall somewhere, that seemed quite accurate...

Uff, of course it is a great city, just a bit to full of rats, alternative Nazis, and talkers. I was 11 years abroad and hoped it changed, but it feels to me that there are still to many loosers around. Sold out the city? Damn punk alternative looser Nazis they are!!!

Ok, guys. First read then think then write. It's not a film about Berlin in first place, it's about a Dj who's missing his album deadline because of his drug addiction. This can happen in London, in Melbourne and even in Bratislava. So it covers a theme which you might take serious as some blokes start seeing rats and nazis all over the place. Spooky...!

Back on topic, have you seen it yet, Esky? It does look interesting from the trailers, have to say...

Hadt should be habt, but it means "you've sold the whole city"

Exactly, haven't seen the film of course but i r e a d about it and liked the trailer (and the music...!!!) a lot. And the story is a about a dj and musician, that's why i thought it might fit here...

sorry, for the missunderstanding... not seeing nazis and rats everywhere... first of all i don#t mean nazis as such... but those very typical berlin Öko, enviromental, hradliners.. which come close to nazis, just under a different flag... and they are annoying... being very health, enviromental concious myself... and berlin did not sold out, for my taste it could easy use a dash more of style and uppper class attitude. just to keep things in a healthy balance...

but hey, this is going way to off topic... SORRY.

and yupp berlin is great, even it is to hyped.

Bridging the divide between on-topic and off-topic, this slogan is painted on the wall next to the Ableton office on Schönhauser Allee...

I've seen a scene from the movie where the guy sits almost naked at a breakfast table in a fancy hotel and gazes with a frightened look on his face at his hands:
"Meene Hände bluten ja! Ick blute!!!"
Quite funny!

Btw, there is a nice article about club acoustics in the recent issue of Groove.
It kind of really sums it up what annoys me more and more about this city:
Everything's got to be so fancy on the outside, but definitely lacks quality on the inside!

what?!?!?

103 is closing? that's a shame..

I had some very good moments there, especially in the smaller room, seen so many great acts in a front of a few hundred people.

And I can't make it on Friday. shite!

great, a movie about the electronic music scene. no need for another thing to increase the white noise caused by masses of shitty releases.
