Berlin!

 "Summer 1993.... a new beginning. Its 4 a.m. do you know where the party is? Afterhours.... DJ Frankie Bones... goin out to the positive vibe, and the positive people, in the underground. Sunday morning.... here It Is!"
These words opened my favorite mixtape of deep house. I was 18 and living in NYC. There was creative energy everywhere.... people busting acid dance moves on street corners... DJs spinning nightly in prep for that weekends big party under the Whitestone bridge. Art on the walls music in the streets and weed in the air.

 Soon after, the city became a vapid wasteland. Not in a run down sense but in a corporate playground kinda way. Our energy disappeared. Since then Ive often wondered where it up and got the fuck out to..... now I know!
BERLIN!!
Walking around this city is like hardsteppin through NYC in its last true creative era. EVERYTHING is tagged. And the good pieces are unreal. People on bikes and scooters and walking. restaurants and wine bars without the chic hype on every corner. And dont drink your beer all quick like so you can leave your house for 

the bar...... just take it with you and sip it strolling down the street... or even..... sitting on the train!
Ive kinda missed NYC for quite a few years..... but Im happy to say I dont have to now.... cause I found where she went!!!
