Electronic music from Germany is famous all over the world. Party tourists from all over the world come to Berlin because of it. The starting point is Sven Väth's legendary club Omen in the 90s. A lively techno scene emerges throughout Germany. In the east, Leipzig develops into a center. Away from the metropolises, legendary venues emerge, such as Nature One, one of the biggest festivals in Europe. Sven Väth, Monika Kruse, Paul van Dyk, Anja Schneider, Matthias Tanzmann and many more tell us why techno and house are so successful in Germany.

Directed by Tilmann Kuenzel, and finished only at the end of last year, Sub Berlin tells the story of Tresor. It is about discovery and development in the time following the fall of the Berlin Wall. A time capsule, where so much was unresearched and nobody knew who owned pieces of land and certain buildings in the former East Berlin. A time in which cultural activists threw themselves into these abandoned and unidentified spaces, and transformed them into their own developing mircrocosms. Among the highlights will be how this music and its scene spread in the 90s in Berlin, to a massive phenomena and by 1998 lead to a gathering of 1.5 million people at the Loveparade dancing around the Victory Column. As pioneer and precursor of the era, Tresor Club was a focus point in the history of electronic music.
