This is a totally random thought...but it would be curious to see
if somebody could make a comparable documentary kind of thing about
the current "diy/idm" electronic scene. Although it would probably
come off as much lamer, and with much different concepts of culture,
you could probably make an analogy to the different cultural
elements of hiphop (graff, dj, mc, breakin) to something...
Even if there's not quite as much too it, i'd be curious to see it done.

The Soundlab crew gets ambitious with Represent, a two-day celebration
of music and film (also Sat 9.21). Tonight (Friday) it kicks off with a
20th-anniversary celebration of the classic hip hop documentary Wild
Style at 8pm. The director, Charlie Ahearn, will be on hand to introduce
his chronicle of early '80s NYC hip hop culture. A pre-screening concert
at 6pm features legends Grandmaster Caz, Busy Bee, and the Rock Steady
Crew dancers. Hosted by Fab Five Freddy, the event is at the renovated
outdoor East River Park Amphitheater, the site of the closing festival
in Wild Style. (JP)
