Q: What was the first record that made you realise music could become more than just listening — something you would build your life around? And what are your old time favorite vinyls?
A: To be honest with you, I could never name just a single record. It was the love for many different genres that made me realize music was more than just a passion for me. Digging for records and discovering new sounds became a huge part of who I am. Berlin gave me the possibility to actually make a living from this passion and showed me that music could become more than just a “hobby” I could name a recent release that’s probably gonna become one of my favorites Lvpica - How Does It Shine

Q: Bikini Waxx began in a living room, appointment only. What made you want to keep that intimate, hidden feeling even as the shop grew?
A: When my friend Gerd moved Bikini Waxx from his flat into a proper store, the idea was never just to sell records, but to create a cosy space that still felt like home. The experience begins the moment you ring the bell, walk through the backyard, and discover the little yellow house hidden inside.
"After a tea or coffee, you can take your time exploring our carefully selected records and latest releases."



Q: Where do you go in Berlin when you want to step out of the pace of the shop and reset your ears — musically or otherwise?
A: One of my favorite places in Berlin is Salon Christophori, a unique piano salon hidden in Wedding. I try to go there as often as possible for classical music concerts because the atmosphere is incredibly intimate and authentic. During the day, it works as a piano atelier where instruments are carefully restored and repaired. In the evening, the space transforms into a concert salon welcoming talented international artists. What I love most is the vibe: passionate people gathered close to the musicians, sharing a genuine love for music in a warm and almost private atmosphere.
