This Metro Times article [via Burnlab] makes me long for Berlin again, it's such an amazing, vibrant city. You can literally feel the creative energy in the air. I've never felt so full of possibility as I did when I was in Berlin.

Photo taken last year outside Berlin's pre-eminent electronic music store, Hard Wax. Even if you can see the sign (outlined in red) you have to find your way through the courtyard and up a couple flights of decrepit stairs to get to the store, but once you do you'll be in electro-techno heaven.
