WHOLETRAIN

 

Florian Gaag tells the story of a crew of four “writers” – David, Tino, Elyas und Achim – who observe the hierarchies, the values, the rules and the codes of the graffiti scene. Night after night they make off for the subway stations of the city, intent on leaving opulent images behind. But as another crew appears on the scene, and the four feel challenged, a creative battle ensues, one that will change the lives of these young people for ever.

We are confronted with life taken to the limit. Constantly on the edge of legality. Always on the run from the law. Urban space must be reclaimed. Friends are made and lost. Unbridled creativity and doing things for the sheer love of it are watchwords too.

 

WHOLETRAIN is an exciting and emotionally gripping drama, one that explores for the first time the secret universe of the graffiti scene. The protagonists exist in a breathless state, suspended somewhere between two worlds: their day to day life, and their existence within the crew. Florian Gaag manages to recount a tale coloured by tension and aggression. The result is a many-sided portrait of characters whose world has never been documented in this way before. Their subculture remains authentic and realistic. Edgy editing and grandiloquent camerawork, a pulsating soundtrack and an excellent ensemble of actors, make WHOLETRAIN a film experience not to be missed. With this fantastic cinema debut

 

The soundtrack was written and produced by Florian Gaag, who worked with legendary figures like Hip Hop greats KRS-One, Freddie Foxxx, O.C., Planet Asia, Afu-Ra, Grand Agent, Tame One, Akrobatik and El Da Sensei. Florain Gaag also managed to convince internationally renowned graffiti artists to work with him, writers such as Neon, Won, Cemnoz, Pure and Ciel, who were responsible for the artwork.

One of the best instrumental funk LP's i''ve ever heard. I highly recommend this fresh, funky, mind and soul-enhancing full lenght LP on "soul fire records" coming straight outta NYC. Heavy vinyl and indeed a must! So, if you are into this kind of music and if you want to make yourself some pleasure also gather some information about El Michels Affair's release "Easy Access" also appearing on "soul fire records". And as i'm talking about El Michels Affair, i definitely have to point to their shaolin series instrumental live edits of wu tang classics like cream, glaciers of ice, bring the ruckus and duel of the iron mic and the shaolin series. And there is another great El Michels release called "The PJ's ... from afar" with Raekwon on "truth & soul records". You already have this one? get more information about the recors in here www.truthandsoulrecords.com

it would be saturday may 26 and the following part of history wouldnt have happened yet.

Hit the BUTTON for “One In The Jungle” with Kemistry (R.i.P.) and Storm feat. MC Flux, hosted by MC Navigator back in 1996.

thx to breaksblog.biz for tracklist and diggin back in time.

enjoy the long weekend

peace
