In this episode, Sebastian sits down with Alejandro, the leader of Entre Trópicos - an events organising project that is building a home away from home for the Latin American community in Berlin and facilitating concerts for Latin artists that want to come to Berlin to perform. Originally from Colombia, Alejandro moved to Berlin and started working as a barista before starting Entre Trópicos with a group of friends and the project has since grown to have a show on Refuge Worldwide (a Berlin-based community radio station), an ongoing partnership with venue SO36, and concerts happening every month!

In this compelling episode of Unsigned Berlin, we sit down with Lutz Leichsenring, a key influencer in Berlin’s clubbing scene, to explore the future of night culture in one of the world's most vibrant nightlife capitals. With his background as a former spokesperson for the Berlin Club Commission and his co-founding role at VibeLab, Lutz brings a wealth of experience and a unique perspective on urban cultural development. In our conversation, Lutz highlights the importance of inclusivity and safety within nightlife, discussing effective measures like anti-assault signs and the creation of sensory-friendly spaces that cater to diverse audiences. He shares insights into how these strategies not only enhance safety but also foster a more welcoming environment for all club-goers. Additionally, Lutz introduces us to Night School, a fresh initiative by VibeLab started in 2023, aimed at nurturing new talent in the nightlife sector across Europe. He candidly addresses some of the unexpected hurdles encountered by his innovative project, Fluctuations, which seeks to mobilise cultural institutions on a ship traversing European waters.
