Vinyl Nation

The documentary is about the return of the vinyl record. Sales of vinyl have risen over the past decade. New listeners have come to the format. The picture of who collects records has changed. Collectors are younger. The number of women listening has grown. People from different communities have entered the field. But the revival has another side. Buying music has become more expensive. Pressing queues favour established bands. Independent musicians lose out. Whether vinyl really sounds better is also disputed. The film does not close that question. The documentary talks to listeners and to record sellers. KutMasta Kurt and Patrick McCarthy appear in the ninety two minute documentary. It is an American production Kevin Smokler and Christopher Boone finished in 2020.
