The man behind some of the most original music videos of the year, Adam Bainbridge, better known as the lead singer from Kindness is back with a short documentary charting Trouble Funk's reinterpretation of his song 'That's Alright' which is almost entirely built from samples taken from Trouble Funk's 'Still Smokin'. Confusing, we know. But the short that comes in at just under ten minutes is a great watch. The film captures the meeting between Adam, the band and the collision of these two different worlds, where go-go is now and where it could be going. Taking the angle of an outsider's view into go-go and the DC scene, its importance as a genre and its influence on contemporary music culture... and the overwhelming position of confronting those that inspire you so closely and playing their own song back to them.
