Completely Genius! Vintage Vinyl and a Caffeine Fix.

11/7/2011

Berhampmore, a small suburb in Wellington, has recently hatched a new shop. I’m not sure whether to call it a record store with a caffeine addiction, or a cafe with masses of vinyl, retro tee- shirts and posters on the side. Whatever it is, the premises is so cunning you could put a tail on it and call it ‘Evil Genius’.

Matt (local DJ) and the gorgeous Miri took me on an urban adventure to experience this unique cafe. The owners, Apa and Benjamin are both vinyl and coffee connoisseurs. A few months back they decided to combine their passion for tunes, coffee and great company, and decided to set up this funky HQ.

Matt was attracted to the Atari game in the corner like a flying insect to flame, and he couldn’t help trolling through the stacks of records. Miri just smiled and together we soaked in the vintage posters and reminisced about our adventurous younger days. 

Somehow, in Evil Genius you can get lost in the music, it feels like time travel back to the memories is possible, and the world outside has been put on hold. Just another small slice of heaven in the world’s best little capital city!

Nowadays, who hasn't dreamed of finally booking that awesome dream vacation to far off, exotic lands once thought to be unattainable to the average person? Luxury vacations are becoming an increasingly available option for many more people than in the past. And corporate travel, which after 9/11 took a major hit, seems to be making a minor comeback. This is probably due to the desire of people for a bit of luxury travel, and luxury travel agencies seem willing to take on this additional task.
