Made by the better Berlin

030 Magazin

“Sometimes it’s all too easy to forget that there’s more to Berlin than the stuff that comes out on labels like Kitty Yo, Tresor and Monika Records. Much more. Beyond techno, Berlin pop trash and all the stuff that even readers of English lifestyle magazines are now familiar with, there are even the really exciting things happening in this city. The merit of this compilation is to have collected and documented them, so to speak. Suddenly, pearls from acts like Planet 9, Ström or Montag are unearthed that no one really knows who isn’t Tarzan in the Berlin underground jungle. And all of them are great. Whether on the campfire guitar or on the cheap synth, in the end there is always pop of the somewhat better kind. Made by the better Berlin.”
