00:00
the infamous burger some people love it
00:08
and some hate it but how exactly did
00:14
become burger and the most famous club
00:16
in the entire world well you're about to
00:20
find out but first let's have a look at
00:22
the history there are kind as it is
00:27
today exist since 2004 but the brand for
00:31
what it stands is much older than that
00:34
broken story begins in the early 90s
00:37
when techno was still young and being
00:40
gay was not really accepted yet in our
00:42
society the gay club promoters Michael
00:46
Tuohy Flay and Norbert Foreman have been
00:48
throwing their snacks parties in various
00:50
locations around Berlin those next
00:53
parties were mix between a hardcore
00:54
techno race and a sex party at that time
00:58
there was not really a proper space for
01:01
young gay men to indulge their desires
01:03
so they created this event for them to
01:07
do as they like without being judged of
01:10
course it was all happening on the
01:12
ground and unofficially then came 1998
01:16
and they were offered to move to a
01:18
permanent location on a vast industrial
01:21
lot they moved into a factory building
01:23
that has been used to repair trains
01:26
before the name of the new club was
01:29
Austin and even though they kept
01:32
organizing snakes parties most evenings
01:34
revolved around offering quality techno
01:37
to an audience that was both gay and
01:40
straight a school was an immediate
01:44
success being at the epicenter of the
01:46
underground techno see over the next few
01:49
years they expanded the brand and
01:52
created the panorama bar on the upper
01:55
floors which focused on software techno
01:58
and house that drew somewhat of a more
02:01
mainstream crowd at the same time the
02:04
club
02:05
Oratory which was run in the very same
02:09
space came into existence it was focused
02:12
on gay men whose sexual activities were
02:16
a bit too extreme to coexist with the
02:20
mainstream crowd taylean vang a resident
02:23
DJ at the time said there were dark
02:25
rooms chains swings and corners where
02:30
men explored each other sexually I
02:32
remember one night when an entire room
02:35
was filled with mud naked guys were
02:38
dancing around had sex with each other
02:40
and acted like pigs it took a month to
02:44
clean up in there and then came 2003
02:49
Osgood's hit make space for Berlin's New
02:52
World Arena the owners were forced out
02:55
and had to look for a new location and
02:57
did they find one after the closing of
03:00
us food
03:01
the makers had to take a choice techno
03:04
now slowly became a business the
03:07
underground got more and more
03:09
professionalized the foreigner Club
03:11
Osgoode was born out of need to find a
03:15
place for young gay men to do whatever
03:18
they want it was always an illegal
03:20
undertaking even at Osgoode there was no
03:23
company and no rent contact now was the
03:27
time to get serious on a lot not too far
03:30
from the old Osgoode there was a power
03:32
plant owned by Swedish energy giant
03:35
battle pod the plant had been taken out
03:37
of service and what was left was a raw
03:40
concrete structure from the 1950s that
03:44
had everything toy Flair and torment
03:46
were looking for a new legend was about
03:50
to be born
03:51
the infamous Bergheim
03:54
vine room with with 20 meter high
03:57
ceilings became the main Birkin floor
03:59
that combined with the Industrial and
04:02
baiance and the powerful best created
04:05
something very powerful that didn't
04:08
exist anywhere else today
04:11
Berlin is considered the world's most
04:13
legendary club there have been surely
04:16
many contributing factors getting it
04:18
there but the most important one in
04:20
addition to the location is that they
04:23
created a space of absolute privacy and
04:26
no judgment and that is exactly what the
04:30
people outside the door are for that's
04:32
why they have such a strict door policy
04:34
and that's why you need to put stickers
04:37
on your camera when you go in because
04:40
not everybody is open-minded and not
04:43
everybody understands without a strict
04:45
door policy Berlin couldn't be what it
04:48
is today with all of this in place
04:51
Perkin can be known by everyone and
04:54
still be underground this is what it
04:57
makes it so special
04:58
if you run a business like that for many
05:00
years and it's successful of course at
05:04
some point it will become a mythology
05:06
that's how broken got where it is today
05:09
and that's why there are free are long
05:12
queues every weekend Burke and Shirley
05:17
did the right thing at the right time
05:18
but its fame is well-deserved
05:21
anyone who has ever been inside can tell
05:24
you that and believe me all the rumors
05:27
are true
05:28
