DJ Shir Khan - Berlin

Poised to take over the international DJ scene, Berlin-native Shir Khan made a name for himself by wrangling best-of-pop songs from Kim Wilde, Donna Summer, Madonna, Nico and more and finessing them into something more left-field: a mixture of pop, disco, electro and hip hop.

His inspiration? Berlin. “Born in the city. Raised in the city. Still here. Still there. True love all the way through,” he tells Unlike, which makes sense that the Levi’s Unbuttoned Tour would scoop up the DJ for their showcase Berlin concert. See Shir Khan long with other red-hot acts like Amanda Blank, Boyz Noize, The Subways, Crookers and Esser on July 2nd when they play an exclusive show from the denim-brand at Astra by applying here.

    Apart from Wohnzimmerbar, this is my favorite bar in Prenzlauer Berg. My favorite thing to drink here is a Aperol sour. The DJ doesn’t play a club-set and the ambiance is great.

    Kreuzberg has Videodrom. In P-Berg there is Negativland. I would like to think that my entire film education is due to the existence of this shop.

    Raumerstrasse is my old ‘hood. The people always say that the “little Eiszeit” on Stargarder Strasse is the shit. I don’t really care—I give all my old streets their due respect. Therefore, I buy my ice cream at Eislabor. Word up!

    Always totally booked, but for a good reason—this place is excellent. Reserving a table is sensible. I chill with my homies and business-dudes here. Absolutely my favorite Japanese restaurant.
