A Russian-Latvian team of filmmakers is working on a documentary for the last two years, tracking the history and the rise of dance music culture that emerged in Riga, Latvia around 1986 and spread to the entire USSR after the fall of the Berlin Wall. It is the story how The West and The East became connected by the musical revolution. We follow German DJ and musician Westbam visiting Soviet Latvia as he remembers it back in the day.
"In the USSR that was the beginning of a new era. The Era of Dance. The first story of the Soviet Techno Revolution. The invasion of western electronic dance music in Soviet Union."
According to the film makers, “the film could become the first documentary in the world on the history of the Soviet techno-revolution”. Partly crowdfunded after a successful campaign, the film is expected to hit the Russian cinemas in March.
