THE BOOM BAP ARCHIVE


I meant to post this awhile back but I lost the link and just rediscovered it this morning. A cat from the UK started up a Youtube channel called BoomBapArchives and dude is posting analog goodies from the foundation like Henry Chalfant's "All City" (1983), Euro hip hop documentary "Big Fun in the Big Town" which features some amazing live footage, West Coast b-boy doc "Breakin N Enterin" (1983), Dick Fontaine's "Beat This" (1984) (check out a sailin' Bambaata in full zulu gear) and "80 Blocks from Tiffany's" a 1979 doc that looks at the gangs in the South Bronx, among others.

Great Find!!!! Brings back sooooo many memories of B-Boying back in the early 80's.
