FOLK BERLIN LAUNCH

Join us to celebrate the launch of FOLK, the prize-nominated debut novel by Stef Macbeth, at Sound Metaphors’ new Neukölln premises. This fiercely independent Berlin record shop and party crew embodies the underground spirit that runs through FOLK – the DIY ethics and authentic spaces where music culture thrives.
Stef will be in conversation with fellow Velocity Press author Paul Hanford (Coming To Berlin, Lost & Sound podcast), exploring FOLK’s themes of youth, belonging, and what happens when underground communities fracture. Between conversations, Stef and Paul will be playing records that connect to the book’s musical journey – from 1990s UK rave culture to today’s Berlin underground.
FOLK captures a pivotal moment when youth culture met political resistance in 1990s Britain. Set around a youth group that becomes home until everything falls apart, it’s a story about finding your tribe, losing your certainties, and the spaces where we become ourselves.
This intimate evening reflects the record shop culture and underground community spaces that FOLK celebrates – where music, conversation, and connection happen naturally, away from the mainstream.
