One of my favourite Laid Back collaborators – Blast Kid (The Jazz Kid) has done a mini documentary about Belgian Popcorn.
To quote him about the short film:
“This documentary is far from a complete historical overview of Belgian Popcorn. Making such a film would be nearly impossible, as there are many people who have contributed to the movement at different times and in different places. This short documentary puts the focus on the early days of the scene, as seen by two of its key figures.”

You can read the full article on the Laid Back site and if you have 12-13 minutes to spare, please do watch the video below!
And if you like what you hear, you might want to check out Jazzman’s relatively new imprint “Popcorn” that – surprise, surprise – focuses on reissuing exactly this kind of music! You can find all releases on his website or on the Fat City site.
Enjoy :) x
