DJ Documentary

[K-Bee]

I've heard rumours that somebody are making (or has made) a documentary about the late 70s - early 80s US Dj scene featuring interwievs with Frankie Knuckles and Larry Levan (among others). I don't know if it is to get a theatrical release. the movie may be called "Maestro" but I'm not too sure about this.

Has anybody heard of this??

Hi K-Bee,

The documentary has its own website. I just found it myself after visiting Nicky Siano's website so I can't tell you good, bad or otherwise.

Thanks Nicknack. I'm really looking forward to this. It's time these people get the credit they deserve outside specialists circles.

I am, too. The list of worldwide DJ contributors looked extensive. Hopefully that will make it more attractive to those outside the Garage, Loft, Gallery circles. Not that I'm complaining --- I'd like to see anything acknowledging the Gallery as one of the starting points for early underground music.
