Recent house purchases for me; Telefon Tel Aviv - The Birds (check the Ellen Allien mix, sweet bass line and nice acid touch) and Cabinet Records - Cabinet Classics vol. 2. Solid label.

It'd be cool if the Voices from the Lake album was a new Plastikman album. Hawtin would get his street cred back.

Hi. i've been lurking around here for a while now and have a techno related question. Not sure where best to put it so I thought I'd start here.
I’m planning a trip to Berlin in April, specifically to see/hear Dettmann at Berghain. Frustrtingly, I can’t get any information from Berghain about when he is likely to be playing. The listing for the day in question (14th April) says the running order is Orphx LIVE, Mike Parker, Adam X, Fiedel, Marcel Dettmann. Presumably, Orphyx will kick off at 23:59 on the Friday. Do any of you know what time Dettmann is likely to play, based on this listing?

you need to get in the berlin mindset
― the late great, Friday, 30 March 2012 14:41 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah I'm a lurker on this thread and not some major league techno head by any account but o_O at someone going to Berghain wanting to know exactly what time a specific DJ is coming on.

Heh, I'm going to Berlin for the first time in about a month, was sort of wondering about that. How late into the afternoon do things run; i.e. does it make sense to just get up early and make it there for 10 AM?
― EDB, Friday, 30 March 2012 15:42 (twelve years ago) link
i thought the whole point of berlin was that linear clock time didn't exist

Hey neilasimpson-
This was some time ago (2006) but I was able to get the schedule for the performers at Berghain from the Hardwax record store earlier that day. I remember there were flyers available for the night in question. I also asked one of the people behind the counter and he seemed to know all about it.
― llooped, Friday, 30 March 2012 21:03 (twelve years ago) link
maybe if you go to hardwax you can ask dettmann in person
― the late great, Friday, 30 March 2012 22:59 (twelve years ago) link
^^ pro tip
― mh, Friday, 30 March 2012 23:14 (twelve years ago) link
If you want to visit record stores in Berlin, I'd totally recommend Spacehall, they have tons of cool stuff, especially if you want dig into older house/techno/trance/ambient. It's absolutely the best electronic music record store I've ever seen (Hardwax was a disappointment compared to it), everytime I've been to Berlin I've spent like 100-200 euros just there.

voices from the lake is a trip ... it's like four bars of acid house stretched out to six or eight minutes in a way that sometimes sounds like kompakt (prologue is german, right?) and sometimes sounds like pacou
― the late great, Saturday, 31 March 2012 07:26 (twelve years ago) link
at the same time it also has this really awful world music / hippie drum circle thing happening on some tracks and it doesn't help that the background drones sound like digital didgeridoo after awhile

i get the same gross feeling i get when i listen to shackleton's vocal tracks (gregorian chant dubstep)
talking of shackleton, is his fabric mix worth listening to? I found it on the floor outside shoreditch high street overground station last year, nevery put it on yet.
― Blue Collar Retail Assistant (Dwight Yorke), Saturday, 31 March 2012 08:06 (twelve years ago) link
you should put it on next time you are "vibing out" "d-_-b"
― the late great, Saturday, 31 March 2012 08:11 (twelve years ago) link
Berghain posts the lineup (and start times) on their website, but maybe only closer to the date in question? And you're definitely better off trying to get in on Sunday morning (although I haven't tried it personally).
Cosign on Tuomas' Spacehall recommendation, if you're looking for two hundred 90's techno compilations you've never heard of before, that's the place.

ok, thanks! for all of your advice re berghain (and berlin).
"o_O at someone going to Berghain wanting to know exactly what time a specific DJ is coming on."
Basically, I'm well fussy about my techno, plus, I've seen Dettmann a few times now in Glasgow and am keen to see him specifically at Berghain, hence my hunt for specific info. I've heard his sets can be pretty legendary.
I had thought about trying hardwax so will do so if the info doesn't appear on the berghain page.
"Heh, I'm going to Berlin for the first time in about a month, was sort of wondering about that. How late into the afternoon do things run; i.e. does it make sense to just get up early and make it there for 10 AM?"
My understanding is that it runs from 23.59 on the Friday right through to some point on Sunday night. The main room was relatively empty on the Sunday morning but the panorama bar was pretty rammed. Advice from locals when I was there in October last year was that 6am is the time to go.

wait a second ... five DJs play for almost 48 hrs? even given it's berghain that can't be right, can it?
― the late great, Saturday, 31 March 2012 17:39 (twelve years ago) link
That's just the Saturday line-up above. They have another line-up for the Sunday. Not sure when the transition is, however. Doubtful it's midnight.
