Das Berliner Archiv der Jugendkulturen sammelt alles über Szenen wie Skinheads, Punks, Grufties, HipHopper. Die Bibliothek enthält Zehntausende Bücher, Presseausschnitte, Fanzines, CDs, Videos. [G]

The Archive of Youth Cultures in Berlin collects material of all shapes and sizes: tens of thousands of books, press clippings, fanzines, CDs, videos from the whole motley array of teen scenes such as skinheads, punks, goth and hip hop.

Ähnlich wie die Skinheads fanden Punks einen unmodischen, derben Arbeitsschuh, getragen von Müllmännern und Postboten in England, gerade richtig als Protestkleidung; Protest sowohl gegen die Konsumgesellschaft, als auch gegen die Jesuslatschen (Birkenstock) tragenden Hippies und Öko-Freaks. [G]

Skinheads and punks alike considered a rough work shoe, as worn by England's dustmen and postmen, to be just right for their protest outfits. It represented a protest against the consumer society as well as Birkenstock-toting hippies and environment freaks.

So beeinflussten Teds, Mods, Hippies, Rocker, Punks, Skins, B-Boys oder Raver über die Jahrzehnte hinweg mit unterschiedlicher Nachhaltigkeit das Programm in den deutschen Hitlisten. Unfreiwillig zumeist; basierte doch die Zugehörigkeit zu einem popkulturellen Clan auf der Abgrenzung zur breiten Masse. [G]

For decades teds, mods, hippies, rockers, punks, skins, B-Boys and ravers - some more influential than others - decided what got into the German charts, albeit usually involuntarily, as their membership in a certain pop-culture clan by necessity involved a distance between their world and that of the masses.
