Berlin techno music scene should be protected by Unesco world heritage status, campaigners propose

A group of individuals from DJs, celebration coordinators and fans are battling to get Unesco world legacy status for Berlin's techno scene with fears that the culture won’t survive.
 

 

Music fans from across the world actually travel to the German money to visit eminent clubs like Tresor and Berghain - and a developing effort is approaching the specialists to apply to Unesco to secure the scene.

 



According to Sky News A few appraisals say around 100 clubs have shut somewhat recently in a city which originally took on the techno sound after its rise in Detroit during the 1980s.

The association, Rave The Planet is campaigning German specialists to apply for immaterial social legacy (ICH) status.



Made by Matthias Roeingh also known as Dr Motte, the DJ who established Love Parade, Rave The Planet intends to get techno formally perceived as cultural form protected by UNESCO.

 Detroit DJ, Alan Oldham, told The Observer: “Unesco protection would go a long way towards maintaining that old spirit,

 

“Legacy venues like Tresor and Berghain for example would be protected as cultural landmarks.

 

“So many venues have closed in just the seven years I’ve lived here full-time. In other cities, it would be the natural club cycle at work, but Berlin is a different kind of place, where the club and creative scenes are the currency of the city.”

 

 Dimitri Hegemann, who established Tresor – "the vault" – under a previous retail chain in east Berlin, is another ally

 

Techno is still essential for the texture of the city, as indicated by Peter Kirn, a Berlin-based DJ and music maker . "You in a real sense can hear this music pounding from all corners. It's truly all over," he said.
