great movie, it takes you in schratching, says a lot about history, i would recommend to all begining djs, that they know what its all about.
It mainly consists of interviews with a little show footage. It's starts from Grand Wizard Theodore and Grandmaster DDT through to DJ Premier and Q-Bert. It's great to see the history of DJ-ing and how it's evolved throughout the world. While this documentary is almost 10 years old, it's still a great window into the DJ aspect of hip-hop. (For those who don't know hip-hop consist of rap, DJ, breaking, and graffiti).
Beastie Boys have impressed me much more after taking the time to listen to the layers behind their clever lyrics and listen to the scratching being done by mix master Mike. The documentary was very informative and did a great job at displaying the roots of hip hop and deciphering the difference between hip hop and rap. I have a new found respect for the turntablists in the game.
I think anyone and everyone can enjoy the catchy beats and styled rhythms that make this movie more fascinating. I saw this movie once and I knew I had to own it. It was well produced and that is why I say Well Done. It has a good flow as well, it is not a quick watch but after you see it a couple times through, I will play it in the background because of the music. It is a very clear and sequenced movie about the art of Hip Hop and turntables. I love this culture.
Most people don't know much about the scratch DJ, but it's definitely a legitimate art form. Hehe.
A lot I didn't know. But honestly, this DVD is really interesting.
I really liked this DVD. I'm a little biased cause I've known him since middle school.
Check it out yourself. The world of the scratch DJ opened my eyes.
Loved the interview and profile with DJ Qbert.
