Vinyl Nation

A warm and loving look at the people who love records. Not the stereotype of record stores and record collectors, but the humans who like to touch their music, is portrayed with care and balance. Also, pretty sure you'll learn something no matter how long you've been collecting. Beautifully shot and a story well told.

Vinyl Nation is such a well done documentary, great interviews, timing, music....it had everything a vinyl lover would want to see in a movie!

We loved that it included an emotional component to collecting and listening. Yet also showed pure facts in the history of the industry, as well as the production and engineering of each record.

Music and vinyl lovers unite and see this film! Kudos to everyone involved!

All of the content has been spoken about again and again before. They chose to feature all the standard new privileged upper middle class hipsters instead of genuine bonafide diggers. Or at least it would have been cool to have some marginalised weirdo's, real cats, authentic figures in this plain documentary. Spice it up with some peppers mayne!!

It's a 101 vinyl is cool and 'look at us being quirky and regurgitating all the clichés ,we are sooo quirky and nerdy' documentary. Something nice for the squares.

If you want to watch and learn something authentic and sincere about diggin in the crates, go watch 'Scratch'. Also there are some other independent docs on Youtube about vinyl and diggin. Like the Fuse diggers vids for example.

Subcultures are being taken over on the daily by the hipsters. Since everything is so accessible nowadays. The privileged take the pro's without having to carry the con's. It's kinda disgusting. It dilutes it all from it's authenticity and leaves it to become a weak plain subtraction. Shame on yall.

This movie has some great information and they really do provide evidence for their thesis that vinyl is back and accessible to a mainstream and large number of individuals. However, it is just a series of people talking- none of them very interesting, filled with generic PBS style music. Including music by various artists that make us love our vinyl, and interviews with artists we know and other interesting people would have gone a long way. This was more a TV special than a film- it really didn't utilize the medium of a movie.

Chris and Kevin break the stereotypes of record collecting. By showcasing women and POC they show that anybody can be apart of this amazing culture.
