Underground Techno in Berlin

The whole point of underground events are that they aren't supposed to be publicized and spread on the internet so no I'm not going to tell you that, it would defeat the purpose. Underground events are in general made for locals in the know to have a party without tourists or the mainstream crowd. I think it's a little arrogant to expect to just be able to show up in Berlin with no contacts and get into the hottest underground events with no effort whatsoever.

What I will tell you is to go to clubs nights where the Germans are (example: Tresor on Saturday can be very touristy, but go during Herrensauna on a Sunday and you're gonna have a much cooler experience), and get talking to people and you'll surely hear about something. Or just walk around Kreuzberg and look where people are heading and listen for music and dont be afraid to just show up to a random party. On a good Saturday night there are parties everywhere.

Besides, door policies are very different in Berlin than anywhere else if you've never been. Even if you find a spot, if you just show up as a non-German speaking tourist, there's always a very real chance you won't be let in.

That being said resident advisor will list a huge number of clubs that are all very good choices even if they aren't the big ones. Places like Kili Club, Paloma Bar and Ohm strike a good middle between underground and accessible.
