Next time you're at a loose end at your local video store see if they've got a DVD called "Scratch". This is a doco on Hip Hop DJ's/turntablists that goes all the way back to Afrika Bambaata and Kool Herc etc and right up to the present with DJ Shadow, DJ Babu, Cut Chemist etc etc. It treats it's subject with respect but there's plenty of fun along the way. My favourite moments are Shadow in his secret underground lair surrounded by floor to ceiling piles of mouldering vinyl and the seemingly permanently etched expression of stoned suprise on Cut Chemists face. CC's certainly squandered a few gazillion braincells but nothing compared to the wreckage on the aging hippie's cerebellum whose name escapes me but who you should recognise as soon as he starts to speak... if you should happen across this little treasure.

I managed to run through it twice and enjoyed it both times... YMMV.
