It was at Wilma Bar sometime last year that I first caught sight of the River Rats. Wilma’s bare walls, the candlesticks overflowing with wax and the cigarette smoke which perpetually hangs in the air, all evoke the spirit of some arthouse film. That evening was no different, the sound of live gypsy jazz seeping … Read more These Gypsy Jazz River Rats Roam Our Streets and Infest Our Ears

OmNom Chocolate: It’s SO Berlin Yet You Can’t Get It Here

by
BERLIN LOVES YOU OmNom Chocolate Assorted

Do you ever see something and say to yourself: that’s so effing Berlin? Well, this Icelandic chocolate brand is more Berlin than a septum-pierced, black-jeaned, Fjällräven-bagged girl stubbing a rollie into an empty Club Mate bottle whilst complaining in English about all the tourists we have now. And do you know what? You can’t even … Read more OmNom Chocolate: It’s SO Berlin Yet You Can’t Get It Here

Adam Fletcher On “How To Be German: Part Two”: This Time, Even More German

by
BERLIN LOVES YOU Adam Fletcher Featured

Adam Fletcher isn’t German. But his time in Leipzig and Berlin–two cheap cities that allow mad exploration into this loved, but very–erm–“different” culture, perhaps makes him an expert in How To Be German. Which is why he wrote not one, but two books on the topic. And now, with the introduction of How To Be German PART … Read more Adam Fletcher On “How To Be German: Part Two”: This Time, Even More German

by
BERLIN-LOVES-YOU-Twin-Atlantic-Musik-Featured

Before conducting this interview, I was lucky enough to be able to watch Twin Atlantic sound check. It was, I thought, a rare spectacle. Not only because I was privy to the nuts and bolts of live stage performance, but because Twin Atlantic displayed the same frenetic energy while adjusting levels and acoustics that they … Read more From Glasgow to Berlin: An Interview with Twin Atlantic

Break the Rules of Fashion with Berlin Upcycling Label tHERAPY

by
BERLIN LOVES YOU tHerapy Featured

As much as people rant about how the Berlin fashion scene is dead after each and every Fashion Week, I say you have to dig deeper. You have to dive in, to find the vein through which the blood is pumping. There are many amazing brands in Berlin, many style anarchos who just rebel against the … Read more Break the Rules of Fashion with Berlin Upcycling Label tHERAPY
