Secondhand Sureshots: an experiment in creative sound recycling

A new documentary by the always innovative, if lowercase, dublab, entitled Secondhand Sureshots: an experiment in creative sound recycling, will be pre-screened at the USC Annenberg Auditorium on November 14th, at 6pm. Presented by The Norman Lear Center's Popular Music Project, the documentary centers around four L.A. djs (Daedelus, J.Rocc, Nobody and Ras G) who are given a mission: to use their expertise at finding obscure album treasures in four different Out of the Closet Thrift stores and make new songs out of their finds:

"Secondhand Sureshots takes the audience from the shopping experience to each producer’s home studios, bedrooms and living rooms crammed with wax and wires. Documenting the first needle drops and reactions, the film watches as the treasure hunters compose new songs from scratch and make one fresh, original song using only these mystery grooves."

Sounds pretty damn good to me. You can check out the trailer and other clips from the movie on the dublab page. The screening is free but make sure you rsvp at enter@usc.edu.
