I don't agree on Tresor. They had quite a strict door policy when I went there in 2017 and had an amazing time. However, on the Matrix you are quite right.
EXACTLY. Reject the people who seem like they just stumbled on a party and wanted in but FUCK a place that only wants "locals" I want nothing to do with that. When I travel I'm about meeting people and my city (Portland, Oregon) is NOT exclusive.
It seems like you don't like having tourists in your clubs. I think most people watching this video won't be from Berlin, so would it not serve your purpose better to promote these clubs and funnel all the tourists into them?
"serve your purpose better " that just ain't what this city is all about. The word tourist is not really about not being from the city here, it's just about the people who have no idea where are they. You can be from berlin and still be seen as a tourist at the party scene when you wear that Prada shirt and a watch as big as BigBen. don't get me wrong I'm not supporting it, just saying it what is it from my pov. Many tourists are in the parties, they are having fun, cool tourists are fun they have stories, they are down for the adventure. People do take care of tourists, will invite them to their afterhours just if they can develop some kinda trust. This sic city is FULL of unwritten rulz that when you don't know what you don't know and insist on not understanding it kills the only comfortzone people have to spend their weekend before going back to the normal life. Too long it was sorry, wonder if anyone will read this far :D . Cheers
@@alirezakhalafi3376 okay sis calm down it’s a free city not a dictatorship .... u have no idea what u talking about. proliferating stereotypes and gatekeeping aint it. try again.
Check's auch nicht wie AboutBlank es in die Liste geschafft hat. Immer nur geil dort gewesen und viele werden auch nicht reingelassen... der Kolleg im Video redet Müll.
well watergate is after berghain the best club in berlin (especially the waterfloor)! no matter how many tourists is there. it is about the music. open your mind. we are at the end all tourists somewhere.
You are talking about Techno clubs... Everyone should get the Chance to get in. This is what techno is all about, that erverybody and I mean erverybody can be who ever she/he wants to be. So you're the snobbiest Person and the last one who should get into those Clubs. Sorry man
Bigtownplayboy Honestly it’s not as simple as that, it’s a complex issue and there’s good points on both sides. Whilst “techno culture” is meant to be all-inclusive, it is also special to many people because it is also a community and the atmosphere on the dance floor matters a lot, which can cultivate a cliquey and pretentious mentality. If you bring in too many people who are not necessarily there for the music- but there because they heard they should do this while in Berlin or generally going for more touristic reasons, they can potentially ruin the atmosphere by having no club etiquette, as a result making it a less inclusive space for those already there. In other cities it’s probably a bit ridiculous to have such door policies but Berlin is a bit different because it’s often viewed as a tourist activity, as “techno culture” is ingrained to a greater degree within the overall cultural fabric of Berlin and can easily run the risk of being over-commercialised, compromising the community.
Everyone does get a chance. Only some get rejected and some get in but everyone gets a chance who ever goes to any club. So I dont know what are you talking about.
I went to watergate 3 weeks ago and it’s the typical crowd you find in any club anywhere. People spend more time starring st each other than enjoying the party. It sucked.
I confess that I have great difficulty in understanding how many people support these policies of entry into clubs that are totally arbitrary - and often even prejudiced - even more so in a city where most residents love to talk about "integration" and take a stand against any prejudice. I also can't understand your criteria in finding it bad that clubs simply let customers who are in the mood to enjoy the place just walk in and enjoy it. I mean, I wonder how arrogant a person can be to think they're good enough to be in a place and think it's bad that the establishment is open "to anyone".
Exclusivity is important if you're trying to cultivate a specific environment and vibe. If you're not willing to put the effort in to add a desirable flavour to the mix then go somewhere else where perhaps you are wanted.
Tresor ain't so bad, Watergate I agree with, suicide circus I was curious about but now I know nothing missed out by skipping it. I find club der visionnaire quite nice / cool
Lolol I was with a few people I met at a hostel in Berlin, and they couldn't get into any of the hip hop clubs or suicide circus. I got in just fine though. So they were strict at the door. (Tip: don't wear flannel, and be cool) I think Watergate was that really cool outdoor club I went to with some Germans I met. We sat on the river and chilled just fine. The Matrix was trash though. Totally agree with you for the same reasons you mentioned. 100% difference from the other clubs.
Matrix is sort of a running joke at this point. If a friend says they went to Matrix, it was for a laugh. ://About Blank is actually really cool, especially in the summer. And it has two dance floors so there's always something good.
Best raves happened in country side of Berlin! Because techno tourists (club goers) are not there.. Attended one of the best rave at lake side yesterday at kulturpark Strauseberg! Having tourists is not a problem, the people who don’t understand techno and start talking loud on the dance floor or do not understand the personal space is the real issue!
Us Berliners are, for some reason, quite snobbish about tourists in nightlife. Which is strange to me, because, well, they spend money here, and that's a good thing, isn't it? Sure, some are annoying, but so are lots of Berliners. On top of that, those that complain the loudest are usually the ones that only moved here a few years ago themselves. Also, there's so many expats here that you could hardly ever tell who is a tourist and who isn't. And playing the "no door policy" card is, quite frankly, ignorant of Berlin's clubbing history. It doesn't help anyway. Berghain still has one of the strictest doors in Berlin (frankly, well past it's heyday and hugely overrated), and lots of tourists get in as well. It'd worry me if the door policy was "Berliner or not", to be honest. I fully agree that Tresor is boring and Matrix is crap, although that's hardly a tourist problem.
jimboblivesforever That’s the thing, it’s not about the money, it’s about the community and the music, which makes it authentic. If the clubs are in it for the money they’re doing it wrong in the first place and will have a very basic, commercialised and diluted venue. Places like this tend to have VIP areas and overpriced bottles of Grey Goose with sparklers with pop music in the background...
Mi experiencia en Berlin ha sido muy mala, no he podido entrar a ningun club. Llevo escuchando techno desde pequeño, tengo 29 años y porque soy Español no puedo entrar (?). ¿Acaso los berlineses no viajan? ¿Deberiamos hacer lo mismo con ellos? Es triste y va en contra de la cultura Techno.
Agree with ya, and I don't understand how someone could be proud of gorillas being judgy on your appearance and what they perceive from you to decide if you can't/can enter. In Argentina we avoid those places since they are clearly discriminating
totally agree, Berliners dont give a fuck as long as you are not some posh uber asshole type. folks who stay here for 2 years claim their Berlinhood like they are something fucking special. happened to me when standing at 6am rosenthaler platz with friends half drunk taking pictures, a lady passes by and yells - "kuck mal, ein touri". yeah, touri my ass. turns out she was from Brandenburg and just moved to Berlin.
@@MokojonI don't think being spanish is why you didn't get in at any club, I've seen quite a few spanish guest and resident DJs at almost all the clubs i go to. Living here for a few years, I usually have no trouble getting into most clubs (except Berghain) and in my experience its about how you dress and carry yourself. If you dress too flashy (exceptions for themed nights) or too casual (way too many people show up in street clothes), you're probably not getting in at any good club. More importantly, unless its a gay night or a gay club, don't show up as a total sausage party. Also don't show up as a massive group of 20 or something, most clubs will be already at capacity when you do and its up to the bouncer whether he lets some of you in, or no one at all.
Ihr müsst ihm ja nicht glauben. Das Schöne am Internet ist ja, dass man alles, was man nicht mag, einfach ausmachen kann. Er muss sich nicht rechtfertigen nur weil ihr zu dumm seid um auf das X zu clicken, wenn euch etwas stört.
Why all the hating comments? He is talking about the clubs that are too touristy for Berliners. If you are not from there, but you wanna party like the locals do (that's why one goes to an other city after all), you should listen to him carefully. Of course, if you just wanna get wasted and pick up a whatever person (except for a local) at a whatever venue, it doesn't matter where you go, in Germany you can be inebriated 24/7. :D
im a foreigner but i wear techwear all the time to techno clubs in my country. Do u think im too cool for berlin? Do they accept me in berghain? Because ya all look like peasants if u aint wearing techwear to techno.
Dude, you really have no idea what you are talking about. Aboutblank is really not a touristy club. Only the main parties like Buttons or Staub are very touristy as they are very famous but the smaller, less-known parties are A) not that full and B) not really that touristy.
As I am from the Bavaria and only have the oppotunity to go to illegal raves (and the extremly rare good Rave that is in an actual Club) i don't really understand what's so Bad about loose Door restrictions and what's so great about standing in line for a long time. I mean shouldnt everybody be welcome? The people that only Listen to Schlager and Charts wouldnt Go there anyways, would they? Someone from Berlin pls explain
Berghain for instance would be just a tourist hotspot at this point. Only a fraction of the people who want to get in even fit, so they select those who seem like they are there for the music and have a suitable attitude.
Long ago joining the army they ask what 3 places you want to be stationed I wrote " Germany , Germany ,Germany " and got Texas. But every soldier I met that was stationed in Germany comes back loving Techno. Maybe I got lucky. The country clubs in Texas are something Ill never forget.
I don’t understand why you are essentially not allowed to be a tourist and go to a decent club. Why do I have to lie and say I live there in order to be accepted? It’s just ridiculous.
You are so pretentious, except for Matrix and Suicide Circus, all the other clubs are really good, and you have many places to chill in the watergate (Outside Next to the water)
i cant tell if this is comedy or sarcasm or serious but i found it hilarious i love tresor, chinese with a flashlight hahahahaa and watergate btw how can you not chill on that balcony
You forgot House of Weekend (most overpriced), Bricks, Soda, A7, Havana (least authentic 'Latino' music and only tourists), and 808 (unless you wanna hear 2015 generic rap).
Watergate was cool in the beginning, they had some great acts and djs in the James Holden years. It changed though, expensive drinks and tourists. Matrix, hmmm....lets just say i remember the early Loveparde days and a giant gas canister outside while you waited in line, kept the whole line amused. :-) don't remember much else, other than that I never went there. Suicide was pretty ok the first year or two. So this is all awhile ago.
Suicide was actually cool back in the days (around 2010-14). Until they start kicking out all the regular customers and only let in tourists and closing at 6-7am. Because tourists spend more money and leave earlier then Berlin people. And I don’t know why you mentioned matrix here. Matrix is a disco and not a club. Nothing to do with the techno scene here. And for all tourists planning to go to Berlin: Go to Kater Blau oder Sisyphos for the best Berlin techno club experience. Don’t be a tosser and go to Berghain. It’s just a waste of time.
Im going to Berlin in 2 weeks. Maybe I should just avoid the clubs.. either they suck in some way, or I have to wait in line for hours with the probable conclusion that I won't be let in anyway. Radical Living should suggest some nice German Bierstube where I can relax with my friends (joke). I want to experience Berlin at it's core, but that's just not possible for every tourist... depending on who they travel with offcourse. Big question stands. How to best experience Berlin nightlife without visiting popular clubs?
You will get the best experience if you actually go to a club with a lineup you actually enjoy and not for the sake of "getting into a techno club in Berlin".
but you have said in other videos that Matrix is one of your favorite nightclubs. I would go wherever there is a techno party. I don’t like Matrix, they play too much mainstream. I don’t go to clubs to hear that or hip hop.
Why all Berlin "underground" places MUST be dirty, nasty and doomie spaces? Poor to ultra cheap architecture, no decor, nor theming? What's the point to pay am admission fee to get in my dog's shelter?
matrix is a hole, I like about blank and tresor but for sure not my favourites. I just moved in-between Renata and about blank. best clubs in my opinion at sisyphos, Renata and chalet ( think chalet is closed now)
lol funny.. i lived in Berlin from 2016 to 2018.. in that time about time About:blank was quite hard to get in.... just remembered once i was with a gorrrrgeous friend from Brazil.. and she never had a acess denied to any place in her life, they ask her for the line up and she couldt answer... so they blocked us !! she cried so hard lol... that was a shit in Berlin a lot of times!! we ended the night at Wilden Renate!! very good place and party!
I'm also a tourist and the answer depends on what you are looking for and what are you interested in. Of course I'd feel bad when rejected just because I'm a foreigner, but at the same time I would probably understand the reasons why, and I'm more angry to the previous tourists who are the main culprits for strict door policies, than to locals who just want to preserve good things in their city.
I would go to suicide circus on a tuesday , and yea, they let anyone in; but still had so fun; mostly men... tresor might be the best option on this list; watergate I love thou
don’t complain you guys he is right just make some local friends and go to berghain with them you guy will all love it berghain is the best trust me they have many good and famous dj all the time

As far as I know, it has changed.

Exactly. Most people who call themselves locals from Berlin are import anyway

As a former club goer from Smartbar in Chicago. We always welcomed people who were from out of town. We met so many people from all over the world.

I love how he openly has an issue with Chinese people 😂😂😂😂
Bin zwar kein Berliner aber hatte unglaublich viel Spass im About Blank. Moodymann live (outdoor) zu sehen war super :D
A relaxed door policy is better I think. It's stupid when bouncers don't let you in because they don't like the way you "show yourself" or whatever.
Totally agree. I don't like discrimination on clubs and basically that's it
If you follow the DJ and not the venue, then you will be fine.
Tresor ain't so bad, Watergate I agree with, suicide circus I was curious about but now I know nothing missed out by skipping it. I find club der visionnaire quite nice / cool

I’m surprised Tresor is on the list
Yea but its True. Was there last year in Summer and was pretty disappointed
It used to be bad, but they changed the door and their events. It's quite good now.
Exactly. Was at the Herrensauna last friday and had a blast. There weren't any tourists at all. It really got better recently, I totally recommend it.
especially on Ansome + Paula Temple night i saw a lot of people rejected (and some of my friends too)
Matrix is sort of a running joke at this point. If a friend says they went to Matrix, it was for a laugh.
://About Blank is actually really cool, especially in the summer. And it has two dance floors so there's always something good.
In the summer about blank has up to 5 dancefloors: Lobby, MDF, tent, front garden and back garden. Always depends on the weather and party of course.
I've never been to Berlin, what's so tragic about Matrix? Is it just an EDM for everybody type of club?
I've never seen a Chinese girl in a club with a flash on, this kind of discriminatory and racist language makes people feel very uncomfortable👎
I think for tresor it depends on the night, when there is a good party they might not accept everyone
I also never understood why Watergate is so renowned. It's a room with a cool led ceiling. That's it
Anything to do with Nixon?
the sunrise on the balcony pretty cool

Im going to Berlin in 2 weeks. Maybe I should just avoid the clubs.. either they suck in some way, or I have to wait in line for hours with the probable conclusion that I won't be let in anyway. Radical Living should suggest some nice German Bierstube where I can relax with my friends (joke). I want to experience Berlin at it's core, but that's just not possible for every tourist... depending on who they travel with offcourse. Big question stands. How to best experience Berlin nightlife without visiting popular clubs?
You will get the best experience if you actually go to a club with a lineup you actually enjoy and not for the sake of "getting into a techno club in Berlin".
migrant who was also a tourist some time complains about tourists
we are all tourists somewhere
Bro tourists are not a problem! Problem is when the commercial music listeners enter the techno scene!
hahah tresor delivers no true clubbing experience? man, you know nothing about techno & berlin 😂
but you have said in other videos that Matrix is one of your favorite nightclubs. I would go wherever there is a techno party. I don’t like Matrix, they play too much mainstream. I don’t go to clubs to hear that or hip hop.
wich video?
"They let in everyone" Why shouldnt they??
yannikakapralli exactly, This guy thinks he’s got some special techno rights 😂
Because there is a lot of people who destroy the Vibe with themselves, especially tourists. Thats why.
@@petar1008 to be honest i think Berlin as a whole is pretty boring.As for techno clubs-try Fuse in Brussels
thanks mate
I got bounced at About Blank because it was a +21 nigh, but Suicide Circus was great.
Hi!
Long time watching your content
Well after visiting Buttons past weekend, I strongly disagree with the inclusion of about blank in the list....
SoundSelector same here!!
Same here Buttons was one of the best parties I've been to
I wanted to give matrix to tourists but I think I wasn’t badass enough… now I will certainly do it!
Bunker Berlin 1998! :( This was a real club
I personally think kater blau is worse than about blank. Drunk british bachelor parties ahoi
Thanks cant wait to go there
Stimmt alles außer about blank!
The word for this guy in Greek is malaka
hahaha!
Why all Berlin "underground" places MUST be dirty, nasty and doomie spaces? Poor to ultra cheap architecture, no decor, nor theming? What's the point to pay am admission fee to get in my dog's shelter?
To support the dj to play, the place to stay open.. Besides you aren’t going to art gallery you are going to techno lol
0:36 "with her fleshlight"? That's gross
Thanks for the tip man! If only your immigration policy had the same exclusivity as your best clubs
i agree on suicide circus, but tresor was really cool
This guy's like a friendly, handsome Warlock.
I thought matrix was one of your favorite clubs?¿
😂
@@RadicalLiving not based on the movie?🙂
What about Berghain. Just the blond long haired dealer on the upper toilet is German
matrix is a hole, I like about blank and tresor but for sure not my favourites. I just moved in-between Renata and about blank. best clubs in my opinion at sisyphos, Renata and chalet ( think chalet is closed now)
Totally agree on sisyphos, and kinda on renata
Avoid tresor ? Why you make video abaut this club and its sound cool
Thank you for an opinion that nobody needed and which is outdated as you are obviously not part of the scene
Wenn’s keine Touristen magst, dann sprich wenigstens deutsch 😂
Alda, dein Backwarenverkäufer-Englisch ist einfach nur peinlich....
Dann muss ich wohl mein Fleischwarenverkäufer-Englisch auspacken^^
No knowledge...but: let´s make a video!
I guess you must be a fan of the Matrix then^^
Shit... The wife and I are off to the Matrix for Halloween 🎃
Fuck it, we'll make it fun!
lol funny.. i lived in Berlin from 2016 to 2018.. in that time about time About:blank was quite hard to get in.... just remembered once i was with a gorrrrgeous friend from Brazil.. and she never had a acess denied to any place in her life, they ask her for the line up and she couldt answer... so they blocked us !! she cried so hard lol... that was a shit in Berlin a lot of times!! we ended the night at Wilden Renate!! very good place and party!
A bit racist of you, and i am from germany
hahahah went to berlin once and the only club i went to was matrix hahhahahahaha
we went to matrix yesterday (with my school lol) and it was literally so chill there, I really liked it
About Blank sounds interesting.
Watergate? Wtf is that 😂
he’s so damn right about about-blank
Sounds like I’d like to avoid you
Do you know every Person or how do you know about their iq Level? What should i think about your iq Level?
Tresor really suprised me on this list. I think he is really wrong about that...
Tresor is the biggest tourist club of em all, with Watergate
Make sure you only go to clubs you wont get into, because only those are cool.....
Ein scheiß
german jez from peep show
a bit racist innit
you are amazing we have the same perception of how we see the clubs !! completely omg
hey man, i like your videos! Im moving into berlin next year! do you have a instangram to follow?
+Juan De La Colina that's great, Berlin is awesome to live in! Y my name on instagram is radicaliving ;)
You! You start to really grow on me, mann :D THAT was a surprise haha. You have your thing. subscribing to see more
Heyyy, glad to hear that! Welcome to my channel!
Bit wait… I am a tourist 🤔 would I not have more fun with other tourists? Rather than with hostile natives?
I'm also a tourist and the answer depends on what you are looking for and what are you interested in. Of course I'd feel bad when rejected just because I'm a foreigner, but at the same time I would probably understand the reasons why, and I'm more angry to the previous tourists who are the main culprits for strict door policies, than to locals who just want to preserve good things in their city.
The key is to nail the vibe so hard everyone think you’re a Berliner
por favor este hombre cuando se jubile y venga a España que no le dejen entrar en ningún bar
Haha is hilarius you hate tourist but you are a tourist too
I would go to suicide circus on a tuesday , and yea, they let anyone in; but still had so fun; mostly men... tresor might be the best option on this list; watergate I love thou
Watergate reminds me of Nixon.
kennst dich aber gut aus mit dem matrix ,erwischt mein lieber!
Chillig ich war im Matrix
don’t complain you guys he is right
just make some local friends and go to berghain with them you guy will all love it
berghain is the best trust me
they have many good and famous dj all the time
