Berlin

new wave · 1981–1986

Berlin is an American new wave band known for their synth-pop sound, originating from Los Angeles. Active since 1978, they quickly made waves with catchy tracks like "The Metro," "Sex (I’m A…)," and the unforgettable "Take My Breath Away." With Terri Nunn fronting the group, their music features a blend of electronic beats and memorable melodies that defined a slice of the 80s. After reaching commercial success, the band went on hiatus but returned ten years later to keep the retro flame alive. Berlin’s infectious tunes continue to evoke nostalgia, reminding us of a time when synths and catchy choruses ruled the airwaves.
