Celluloid Records is one of the most revered, open-minded and influential labels of the 1980s, with foundational releases spanning the genres of hip-hop, disco, post-punk, electro, world music and more. Filmed in Paris and New York City, this two part series features key players in the history of the label including producers and musicians Bill Laswell and DXT (formerly Grand Mixer DST) and founder / owner Jean Karakos. A double-disc retrospective of the label, Change The Beat: The Celluloid Records Story, is out now on Strut.
