Berlin is a Club!
Between 3 November 2010 and 6 November 2010, the national and international electronic music scene will flock to Berlin: for BerMuDa, the Berlin Music Days.
Dear friends of electronic dance music
After
last year’s successful launch, BerMuDa, Berlin’s new club festival for
electronic music, will once again attract clubbers, ravers, musicians, labels
and music biz pros from around the world to Berlin. The festival’s 2009 debut
already saw 30,000 electronic music fans descend on the city to enjoy more than
100 DJs and live acts at the city’s best clubs (a. o. Weekend, Watergate,
Tresor, Berghain, WMF, Arena Club, RAW, Maria) during the Berlin Music Days.
BerMuDa: clubs, music, art, fashion & business
Known as the capital of electronic music, Berlin has claimed this title for a few years running and its clubs enjoy notoriety around the world. Every week, thousands of music fans flock to Berlin and delve right into the city’s extensive nightlife. By mirroring this eclectic mix, BerMuDa sets out to give the public an exciting glimpse of Berlin’s rich musical melange, squeezed into four November nights and days, as well as the close-knit community of related clubs, art, fashion and industry behind it. At the same time, BerMuDa will serve as a novel, city-wide “music trade fair” for those involved in the (music) business side of things.BerMuNight & BerMuDay
In
2010, BerMuDa will kick it up a notch with an even more comprehensive programme
and line-up. This year, the festival’s club nights (BerMuNights, Wednesday to
Saturday) will be supplemented by several daytime activities (BerMuDays)
scattered all across the city. These varied events will examine and highlight
all aspects of the electronic music scene – from distributors’ meetings and
live PAs to new acts and iconic exhibitions on club photography – and showcase
the city’s love of electronic music in the best possible (day) light throughout
the festival’s duration.
FLY BerMuDa at Tempelhof Airport
With
the stunning setting of Tempelhof Airport BerMuDa found the perfect spot and
stage for the festival’s biggest draws like Sven Väth, Richie Hawtin, Paul Kalkbrenner,
Tiefschwarz etc. Offering plenty of space for expansive shows, on 6 November
2010 the festival will culminate in a large-scale event on the airport grounds.
A collaboration between BerMuDa and FLY Bermuda, this show will provide a great
complement and counterpoint to the varied club line-up.
Who is behind BerMuDa?
The
Berlin Music Days are the brainchild of the Watergate Club crew. Steffen Hack,
Niklas Eichstädt and Ulrich Wombacher thought it was high time for an authentic
festival of electronic music that would take place where the sound gets its
groove – right on the dancefloor of Berlin’s clubs.
At
the same time, BerMuDa thrives on its open concept. Anyone can become part of
BerMuDa one way or another. (Almost) anything is possible: from exhibitions and
international label, club and city showcases right down to special screenings
and expert workshops. So, get involved and join the fun!

Although the BerMuDa line-up is still taking shape, many well-known clubs, media partners and artists have already signed up for the festival, a. o. Tresor, Weekend, Watergate, Icon, Club der Visionaere, Dice, Cookies, Arena, Maria, Horst Kreuzberg, Groove Magazin, RBB Radio Eins, De-Bug, Wordandsound pres.
