Really not a great job on the music for this documentary, because it's mainly house that came out and was heavily influenced by music of the Garage era that preceeed it by years and years.

@ElAlexxis Some of don't see the connect based on their wording in this film. I'm grateful they made this but again I'll say the quality control and accuracy left something to be desired and improved upon the next time someone makes a related flim about NYC's place as the international center of dance musics then, that to a large extent still applies to today's most prominent musics played on American radio.

@hardcorehouse im sure is has to do with the damnation of corporations owning culture.
