An unassuming store that I had a flick through and was about to leave when… I saw a little sign pointing downstairs. From first impression it seemed off limits as a bar style door had it closed. After leaving my bag with the nice shop owner I took the drop to an underground oasis! So many records, I didn’t know where to start.

I got lost down there for a good long while amongst the ridiculous amount of 12″ disco maxis, with conditions varying from horrific to VG+ and all at 1 Euro a pop. The back room had a really interesting collection. Heaps of rock, large German representation (as expected), kraut, ambient, library, new wave etc. Big funk and soul contingent also.

Prices were fine all over and I left with some hot items. A mobile with internet would be a great advantage as there is no listening spot.

From outside (or even in the store) you would not know what is bubbling underground… you gotta see for yourself!

Music, Friedrichstraße near the corner of Oranienburger Straße. Mitte, Berlin.

Sorry to be so vague with the store location, I was staying around the corner and passed it on my travels, but this map is pretty much on the money.
