The results and reactions are sometimes surprising...
This week I decided to take a trip to Kreuzberg's sloping Viktoriapark to embark upon the second instalment of ETFP. The weather looked a little schizophrenic with the midday heat still lingering, distant dark clouds threatened an early evening thunderstorm. However, despite these early warning signs, finding people relaxed enough to lounge around care-free on the precipice of a downpour was surprisingly easier than I had first imagined...
Cameron - Ireland
Showing off some impressive (shirtless) juggling skills right in the heart of Viktoriapark, he seemed in the zone. I waited for him to finish hurling his balls around to ask him the vital question...
What are you listening to? - Count Nine Lives - "Planet X"
"It's not what I usually listen to..."
"It's not what I usually listen to..."
Paul - England
Very welcoming, friendly, chilled out guy. Currently working in a call-centre to pay the bills but has big aspirations to push his Bass record label Risin Sound.
What are you listening to? - Kiyoko - "Shinigawa"
"I'm hangin"
Nicole - Germany
Enjoying a few beers in the hot summer heat, she was happy to answer questions but asked that I took a picture of her refreshment and headphones instead of her face - which was a shame because she had a pretty sweet blue mohawk!
"Schönen Tag noch!"
Kirill + Penelope - German
These two were sitting under a tree (pre-empting the storm perhaps?) playing their music through a portable speaker whilst enjoying a few cigarettes. Turns out the music was of his own creation but unfortunately he hasn't unleashed it upon the internet yet.
What are you listening to? Kirill Chepets - "Zidanee" (no link available)
"It doesn't have a name yet so I just called it "Zidanee!'"
Fabian - Germany
The last one on the list and again, like last week, is an audiobook listener (maybe this will become a theme?). Seemed the most suspicious out of this weeks five but after the ol' trusty business cards came out his suspicions waned and was happy to talk with me.
What are you listening to? - Christopher Clark - "The Sleepwalkers" (Audio Book)
"Who do you write for?"
