Dense Records by Lost At E Minor
One of the best record stores I've visited in recent times is the centrally located music store, Dense, in Berlin. Their selection is impeccable, their staff friendly and they know their music. I've visited my share of music stores around the world—including Ameoba in L.A., Tower in Tokyo, Kim's in New York, and the recently dissolved Smallfish in London—and I have to say Dense is definitely up there. Their electronic section is very well sourced, they have great vinyl and they don't stock any commercial music. If you ever find yourself in Berlin, make sure you head to this store for music you've probably never heard of.

Two Berlin Boutiques: Lil*Shop and Wood Wood
Comme des Garçons opened their first of their "Guerilla" stores in 2004 in Berlin. It was supposed to stay open for one year, but how can you put an end to such a good thing? So the women who ran the Guerilla store opened Lil*Shop, which carries vintage Comme des Garçons, as well as special Nike products like Nike Vintage Running shoes. It's a...

Anuschka Hoevener
Thanks to the connection to Berlin that Project No. 8 co-owner Elizabeth Beer has (she's a partner at Arratia, Beer gallery there), the shop has a selection of some of the best Berlin lines. In addition to Schiesser, Kwik Shop and Bless, they carry Anuschka Hoevener, a designer who often incorporates sculptural volume into her work, though not in the usual puffed sleeve kind...
