Join Dr. Jonathan Weatherill-Hunt as we revisit the stories and sounds that shaped the city’s early acid house and techno culture.The route will trace the sites of former and influential electronic dance music venues in the west of Berlin during the 80s and 90s, illustrating how electronic dance music has reflected and influenced the city’s identity since the late twentieth century. Though today it is the east of Berlin that is more closely associated with its clubbing culture, this was not always the case, especially when the city was divided by the Berlin wall. In the late 1980s and even the early to mid 1990s, there were many venues in the western districts of Schöneberg, Tiergarten and Kreuzberg that held early acid house and techno parties, or even acted as after-hours venues for people to continue dancing as the sun came up. These include the historic locations of:UFO Dance ClubTurbine RosenheimFischlaborMETROPOLQuartier Latin90 GradThis journey through Schöneberg and Tiergarten will give participants a detailed overview and description of what the early electronic dance music scene in west Berlin would have looked like during the genre's earliest, most formative years.Your guide:Originally from the outskirts of London, Dr. Jonathan Weatherill-Hunt has been passionate about electronic dance music since the early 1990s.
