This week, we’ve got a Jóhann Jóhannsson listening experience, the Haderlump store opening, where to get mulled champagne, and a new club in Spandau.

This weekend Soundwalk Collective invites you for a sound experience: the complete, spatialized soundscape of Last and First Men, Jóhann Jóhannsson’s only directorial work and a seven-year meditation on memory, architecture, and failed utopias, created with Yair Elazar Glotman and voiced with Tilda Swinton’s narration.

For one night only, Marina Zumi transforms Studio 1111 into a living, breathing landscape, where fabric, light, and movement intertwine with technology and touch. In collaboration with video mapper Multiscalar and light engineer Nazareno Amantek, Zumi stretches textiles into immersive spatial forms, tracing light like gestures of connection and healing. With curatorial support from Nils Petersen / Flipping the Coin, the evening then opens onto the dancefloor with sets by Alys Alys Alys, Chami, Tapefeed, and more, all paired with culinary creations by artist Gabriele Locorotondo.

LA photographer Chris Noltekuhlmann celebrates the release of his book After Glow, with a book launch and party. After Glow was created with over 150 portraits of people in Berlin’s club culture, including interviews and text by Cassidy George.

RBL returns to Orangerie for our annual gathering, where Kimey, Sharon Stoned, Mia Duni, Giacomo Valles, and YTU shape the night with deep grooves, low lights, and drifting textures. Expect warm tones, hazy corners, and the sense of being tucked somewhere just out of sight. Settle in and let the night unfold around you.
