Unrelated to the ongoing pandemic, Neukölln’s beloved club Griessmuehle had to close a year ago for reasons which you can read here. This was a big blow to Berlin’s nightlife as it represented the disturbing recent developments in the city of Berlin and the ongoing club closures we have witnessed for a decade and more. The city is full of nightclubs, but oddly enough, the popular Neukölln district doesn’t really have that many, so it was a major loss for the neighborhood revelers.
Fortunately, the club creators from Griessmuehle were able to move their exceptional lineup to Alte Münze last year and also found a new location in Schöneweide at Revier Südost. But with the permission of the outdoor raves coming relatively late last summer, there wasn’t much to be raving about.
Plus we are happy with the upcoming Griessmuehle One More Time digital event created in collaboration with LiveJar. The digital rave collective has recreated the iconic Minecraft club to allow fans to experience their party base one last time with a realistic sound experience and real DJ sets from Griessmuehlen regulars and residents such as Ellen Allien, Spencer Parker , Discodromo, Anthony Rother, FJAAK, Regal and many more.
If you are a Minecraft Java Edition user, you can access the virtual club experience for free. It is a multiplayer environment, so you will meet other users there, there will be drinks and other items with special effects, a live light show, a virtual record store and a chill out area hosted by UNRUSH. Otherwise, if you are not a Minecraft user, there will be a live stream to follow on the Griessmuehle Youtube channel. The sound is fun! Here’s a little trailer to give you an impression:
Believe it or not, but Griessmuehle isn’t the only Berlin club rebuilt in Minecraft. There is also a virtual Berghain in there which you can preview here. It would be fun to see other places there, such as Sisyphos, KitKat Club or Wilde Renate.
