- 1989 might have been the most important year in German history after the war. For four decades, the country had been divided into the west, the Federal Republic of Germany, and the East the communist German Democratic Republic.
In the second episode, DJ Westbam leads us through a vivid music scene that went from Punk to Electronic and united a progressive youth on the dance floor.

vice comments are really weird. like, i've never seen subscribers that are so unhappy with high-quality and varied content. oh boo hoo, vice releases interesting stories about a german dj, trans-folk in china and acid attacks in london and ya'll are demanding a video about how "sweden is being raped by islam". some of you need to log off.
Saoirse Ryan Trolls have infested CZcams and pester people for more videos that confirm their bias...otherwise they go on mass dislikes and flagging campaigns. Its killing this website.
"High quality and varied content". First off, Vice makes, primarily, documentaries. "Variety" kind of goes out the window since what they cover is super predictable (I mean covering a forgotten artist who was important in a dead genre? Vice loves to cover hipster shit).
I mean you speak of Vice like they're AP, RT, CNN, where actual variety in what you report on is required. Vice is pretty much just a Stoners version of the Discovery channel :/
Goodbye Germany hello Germanstan
Herkel Berkel, who voted for Merkel?
But they're turning the friggin frogs gay! >:(
I'm English and even I know who Westbam is. The bloke is a legend.
Yeah I can stand most electronic genres except for techno which I find boring as hell but I know Westbam as well.
Paul Hicks
Yep, Irish here, been listening to Westbam since the early 90s.
That should have been an hour long doco at least
This video is great. German rave culture at its finest. Westbam was a huge influence on me in the 90's. Sonic empire still kicks 2017's ass.
Thank you for this venture into electronic music from this time period. Beautiful frequencies. Much love to everyone.
this comment section is pure cancer
bunch of retards... someone need to remove all the negative comments!!!
On many occasions, in the far past up to now you have reached into my heart and soul, dear Westbam!
Great video, as usual.
"You Need The Drugs " Westbam feat. Richard Butler ////// MOST EPIC TRACK
Westbam, Techno, 90's - awesome memories :)
Great video
Remember people, without techno there would be no Techno Viking.
Techno Viking haha. That guy was on another level. If he points at you during his march of rythm and gives you that stare, you better give him your bottle of water, QUICK, then he's back on the march again, happy as a pig in shit! Of camera, he walked through a building, literally, as in he walked into the wall, broke through the wall then kept walking, broke thru some office tables and interior walls, then broke out the other side, without even slowing down, but without speeding up too.
love this
Very nice words Westbam. Thank you and the Low Spirit crew for inviting me to play Mayday in 1992. That was my first time to Berlin. ***Adam X***
Yeah techno, bitches
I'm from America currently backpacking threw Europe and I'm in Berlin right now so I'm definitely checking out the techno scene tonight at tresor night club!
give berghain a try, too.
go to berghain ut its hard to get in
did you like it?
I will conceive my next child there!
I got in but the lady at the door turned me away when I first walked up but I knew who was playing and said I came all the way from California to see the analog audio cops play a set and she ended up letting me in. The tresor night club was awesome. I did get asked if I was selling mdma the whole time I was there
He looks like Stephan Bodzin
I like how the dude speaks perfectly good english but they still felt the need to add subtitles.
Lol 3 dislikes it's only been up 7 seconds
This was great.
Beautiful! Thank you VICE.
The last song is 'Westbam & The Love Committee - United States of Love'
I remember the time very well! Berlin 1988-1992
Yeah David Hasselhoff concerts, punk, electro. But next to no techno.
chce blogoslawic Pana w kazdym czasie...
Ohhhhhh myyyy godddd
Westbaaaam!! 🔊
Last time I was this early, Sandstorm was still hot.
T-1 Darude is Finnish not German lol
T-1 sandstorm will never cool off.
This song is very cool
WestBam = LEGEND!
Luv that techno baby ! God bless you Berlin !
1:05 even his voice syncs up
🖤
Cool.
I love vice
nice but short
What's the song at 1:05.? =)
Trolls are destroying this site
nah mate, they're funny retards actually.
Marc Acardipane is the real king of german techno.
c'mon why so short????
THANXX! I MADE THIS HISTORYCAL CONNECTION!
More Berlin!
Its cool to live im berlin as a raver
Members of Mayday - Sonic Empire. Name of the track in video:-)
Thanks alot.
What is the last song?
I also wanna know the last song's ID.
I just found it: Westbam & The Love Committee - United States of Love
If you want to find all these soundtracks- just download DREAM DANCE CD`S
I met techno 7 years before i was born.
Berlin's amazing, go there!
please dont tourists are not welcome here you will hardly find any friends
It's very weird how there are zero examples of German techno from before 1992, and zero footage of any Berlin raves or technoparties from 1989, not even the first Loveparade. How can it have all disappeared? Loads of stuff from London and Detroit ca. 1988 though. Interesting.
Bit of a Muppet aren't you? Here a link to the actual birth of techno back in 1970. czcams.com/video/hWUiLJnEYJI/video.html. Enjoy
There is footage of the first love parade
Name of the first Song please :)
thanks a lot!
now this was not a shit post like yesterdays lol i enjoyed it. like that dude has seriously seen some crazy shit
I realize that this was just a glorified commercial for that silly looking Charlize Theron movie-which I probably won't see-but it's still pretty cool to see a part of German culture that had a huge influence on American music.
First track id ?
I miss 1989......but I was not born in this milenium....
I thought the clickbait title was referring to DJ Tanith. Disappointing :-(
1:05
Maybe
Georgio Moroder 1979 with Donna Summer
That was Hi NRG, a type of disco. Nothing like Techno.
isn't there a daft punk song with this guy talking about this same shit with the beat giving examples?
If you want to find all these soundtracks- just download DREAM DANCE CD`S
Dima Balan lol these soundtracks aint even techno
@@nikos208 a) you don't download. b) dream dance and similar compilations were regarded the epitomy of commercial sell out by a lot of ravers when they were released. when that kind of sound took over in 1996 and was mainly prevalent at the love parade in that year, which was also the first love parade to take place at the new route instead of the ku'damm, i clearly remember a switch in atmosphere and audience in comparison to 1994 and 1995. never attended the love parade ever after but became more involved with the hateparade / later fuckparade after that.
Detroit is so electric
Techno was invented in Detroit!
Fact
Exactly, White people are currently trying to erase history by brute force through the media, and people are actually believing this bullshit. This is the same thing that had happened to country music, and now everyone thinks whites created it.
@@Kreedo1110 Don't worry bro anyone who looks can see the truth. It's very weird how there are zero examples of German techno from before 1992, and zero footage of any Berlin raves or technoparties from 1989, not even the first Loveparade. Those vids here on yt claiming to be that, are obviously from the mid-late 90s, one even from a Belgian club. So as they are intentionally lying they know it's not true. If what they claim is true, how can all the original footage have disappeared? How come there are no German techno tracks to be found anywhere pre 1992? A couple of compilations of electro entitled techno, but no real techno. Loads of stuff from London and Detroit ca. 1988 though. Truth is out there and not even all Germans fall for the Berlin myth.
Everyone's complaining about alt-right troll comments, I don't see them.
I only see comments complaining about the trolls.
Vice died when Gavin McInnes left
Ryan was born when his father left.
Techno viking likes this video
After the wall break down.. Gopnik culture and Russian Hardbass DJ and Producers flooding into europe and the world..
🌚🖤🖤🖤
Lmao people are subbed to dislike this channel.
You don't need to subscribe to a channel to dislike a video though
exactly
As a self respecting hipster my goal in life is to spend the night at a Rave in East Berlin
please stay where you are its enough tourists in berlin and they kill the whole vibe
@@originellername3062 Nah it’s purists like you that kill the vibe
@@originellername3062 And you’re just straight up xenophobic
2 seconds
@VICE You are helping whitewash the history of techno and dance music at large. Detroit is not mentioned once in this video, while this video is titled "Berlin's Longest Running DJ on the Birth of Techno in 1989," as if techno was born in Berlin, by Westbam or whoever. Techno is an African American institution birthed by a black musician (Juan Atkins) in a basement in the ghetto in Detroit. So why is the video titled and edited this way? Nothing in this video is about "the birth of techno."
Those african american from Detroit were influenced by german early electronic music(Kraftwerk)
@@ignatrip true, wasn’t techno tho. And these same Germans in 1989 were directly influenced by the house and techno out of Detroit and Chicago in the early 80s
Yes. Came here to say exactly this!
Totally. It's very weird how there are zero examples of German techno from before 1992, and zero footage of any Berlin raves or technoparties from 1989, not even the first Loveparade. If you look here on yt all the vids claiming to be 89 in Berlin are obviously from mid-late 90s, almost as if they're knowingly trying to liey. How can it have all disappeared? Loads of stuff from London and Detroit ca. 1988 though.
Рейв умер, чуваки.
What the is the purpose of this video? Absolutely no techno music, and even the title insinuates Techno was created in Berlin nearly a decade after Techno was actually birthed in Detroit. This is more about Berlin's rave/club culture if anything.
Everyone talking about politics should save it for their late night Twitter rants... like Donald Trump. OH oOoPs, did I sound like a hypocrite? Sorry!
😒😒😒😒😒😒
World's longest running fake news on Berlin's Longest Running DJ on the Birth of Techno in 1989
I don't like this music, love the history though
techno and house music are black culture which originated in detroit and chicago. keep it real.
So much lies in this video. Techno, literally the name Techno was created in Detroit. Why you lyin?
Did the video claim Techno was created in Germany then? I haven't seen all the way through yet.
@@ncshuriken the title is pretty misleading imo
It's very weird how there are zero examples of German techno from before 1992, and zero footage of any Berlin raves or technoparties from 1989, not even the first Loveparade. How can it have all disappeared? Loads of stuff from London and Detroit ca. 1988 though. Any vids claiming to show Berlin raves or the Loveparade in 89 are clearly from the mid - late 90s, often in other countries lol.
There would be no Techno if Jamaican dub didn`t exist, same for American Rap. We Jamaicans influence the whole world when it comes to creating music.
If it weren't for Jamaica, the Chinese would've never invented gunpowder, the USSR wouldn't have been able to go to space, and penicillin wouldn't exist.
Rap is centered around the Skeltonics rhyming scheme, created by a white westerner named Jack Skelton in 1463. Therefore, rap is appropriating white culture by the very logic used by the progressive (aka Marxist) left.
the griots of west africa are the earliest precursor of what became rap, a tradition that existed well before 1463. rap has very little basis in anything european
Nooo nooo noo ita started in jamaoca and you dj learned from jamaica you can only fool the uneducated on music.. The first dj to make techno
If you're a DJ Netherlands is your Mecca not Germany. Even German DJ they took Dutch nicknames like DJ Van bauren.
DJ Kaastehler ond Noekdekuet,hehe
i think you are mixing techno mit edm. there is no better place for techno then in berlin
stop chatting shit, DJ Van Buuren is dutch or wait is the city called ''Leiden'' in germany or holland ? you should know that if you're from the netherlands. oh my salty dutch friend lol
Can't blame you, just take a bit of Tolerance as special Germans have working Methods sorting this Stuff after the Cash - Pervs tried Shit there too often, hehe
Bullshit
How about going over the mass immigration problem that seems more like an invasion?
ladislao whisht, child
Ashley Feawen only people who are complete and utter morons think of it as an invasion
yeah Vice, why do you not only report on what I'm interested in, and while you're at it could you please only come to the conclusion I do and jerk me off on my political views?
ladislao yeah im not into conspiracy theories but i think its plausible. hell after september 11th i guess anything is possible.
yeah why not do that VICE or have you gone completly political correct like 99.999% of all the mainstream media has become?
Just watch sweden and you see how big of a problem it is.
Everyday less interesting this channel
The Illyrian You know you can leave at any time...
I do. Also the retarded too should stay away from this degenerate chan
the video isn't about self-centered america so it's uninteresting
The Illyrian Then stop giving them veiws by coming back again and again... that's how the site works
@@DerGrueneBaron right on!
And I'm from America and all I've ever wanted is to move out for three years now. So much more hate here now... Then again I could leave and wait for the nation to heal again but why?? In a few years I'll be moving to someplace peaceful in the UK or whatever 👏🏻
