Friedrich Raphael is no stranger in the city of Berlin- you may have spotted him spinning the decks with the Toy Tonics crew in Griessmuehle or whipping out some house in KaterBlau. With his vast involvement of the city’s night culture, we’re lucky enough to have him as a personal tour guide. Following the digital and vinyl release of his Koi EP on Istanbul based Petra Digital/Vinyl Recordings, he’s taken some time away from his studio to give us the all ins on the hotspots of the city.
