The Copyright Criminals Documentary is about to be released on DVD. Also this Tuesday 19th Jan 2010 it’s showing on PBS and to celebrate both those facts we are playing the launch party at the Brooklyn Bowl.

“…an amazing documentary on the history of sampling” -Rob Sheffield. Contributing Editor, Rolling Stone

USA Today calls Copyright Criminals “…a compelling and insightful documentary illuminating both sides of a hotly debated issue.”

Copyright Criminals features a bunch of interviews with legendary sample/musical cuttery folk like Matt Black, Mix Master Make, Hank Shocklee and DJ Qbert. It also features interviews with some people who have been notoriously sampled like George Clinton & Clyde Stubblefield. Also we did a interview about what we do in terms of video remixing and made a bunch of video remix segments for the documentary.

Here’s one of the mixes we made for Copyright Criminals:
