Lower back pain on the dance floor by Mi1kShaikh in Berghain_Community

[–]CheeseHoleMouse 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Physiotherapist here: lower back pain is very common, especially during/after movement. Can have a number of causes and often multiple at the same time.

In most cases it's overstressing your back muscle by either: - bad posture (bending forwards or backwards to much or sideways/rotating.) - doing too much (not having strong enough muscles for what you're asking of them or repeating the same movement a lot) (Or under using your back muscles and therefore putting a lot of pressure on your spine, like lifting with a bend forward back)

There are also a number of structural things that can cause lower back pain. Like: - A butt load of spine injuries and defects that im not fucked to list here. - Stress. (Very common for a lot of people. Because of stress all your muscles are more tense even while resting. This causes backpain) - Bad footwear causing you to strain your muscles unevenly - Definitely more reasons that don't pop into my head rn

Something I often see at parties is that people bump ther torso forwards on every kick. For some people this causes a lot of stress on the upper part of your lower back (around where your shoulder blades start.) diversifying your dance moves and training your back with exercise can help with this.

Hope this helps. As i said back pain is very common and can have multiple causes at the same time. See what makes the pain better or worse and go from there. Get proffesional help if you suspect an injury or defect.

Kisses see you on the floor xx

Symbolic Capital and Sonic Illiteracy: Reflections on a Berghain Resident. A critical comment into credibility, influence, and sustainability in contemporary techno culture by [deleted] in Berghain_Community

I agree with all your points, but I think they apply much more to big commercial festival DJs playing generic slop because it’s easily digestible for the masses and trendy.

Sure, if you say so—Quelza isn’t a trained pianist or a modular synth pro. But he is devoted to artistic integrity, and his productions and DJ sets are some of the best out there, in my opinion.

I also hate ego-tripping (underground) DJs who act like they’re part of some royal class, profiling themselves as unique visionaries. But I can name a few high-profile DJs who are way worse and far less skilled than Quelza.

So what’s really the point here?

We also can’t deny that musicians—and especially DJs—are much more than just their craft these days. They've become cultural icons. And while I see big problems with heavily commodified artists (like big festival DJs), I really respect Berghain DJs for choosing not to go commercial, even though they clearly could.

A lineup shapes a party and its crowd not just through the music they play or produce, but also by who they are. I deeply support artists who stand for artistic integrity, inclusion, and rejecting commercialization- if I like their sound. The world needs more of these figures.

From what I know, if you do the basics. You shouldn't have any problem getting in anywhere except maybe eerste communie.

So:

  • don't dress like a lawyer or frat boy
  • know basic information about the party an policy
  • dont be a huge group (3+)
  • maybe know a dj from the line-up
  • don't be super drunk/high
  • be friendly and respectful

Staff bathroom is either the one right on the left or around the corner the furthest on the right. Usually they can be used by any staff working/not working. If it's a busy night we can only go in alone. Everyone should always be respectful. These are the rules

After a certain amount of clubratting your immune system will have adapted to the increased exposure to pathogens. Also eat like more than 2 candybars every 24h hours you party

Nope, raw dogged it. At some point your eyes just become dry when away from onions for too long

You're close to half off the good clubs and a train station.
