And while the stories of the rock imprints are fairly well known, the hip-hop side is less examined. Slowly that imbalance is being addressed, and it\u2019s fitting that one of first labels to get the filmic treatment is LA-based Stones Throw Records. For more than 18 years, the label has put out an eclectic mix of artists and records, and the documentary <i>Our Vinyl Weighs a Ton: This Is Stones Throw Records<\/i> (Galtling Pictures) examines the story of the label and its impact.<\/p>\n<p>In general, music documentaries must strike a delicate balance when it comes to approach. You can\u2019t go too in-depth because that could alienate the general public. But you can\u2019t go too broad because that might put off the heads that want more than a shallow overview. It\u2019s even trickier for a label like Stones Throw because while they are a well-known name in the underground, they\u2019ve rarely crossed over to the mainstream. It would be easy to cater to the cult audience, who, to be fair, hold the most interest, but it\u2019s also a good time to introduce the label to a world that may have missed out. <i>Our Vinyl Weighs a Ton<\/i> generally hits that sweet spot.<\/p>\n<p>However, a linear biography <i>Our Vinyl Weighs a Ton<\/i> is not. Named after a record by label founder and curator Chris Manzik\u2014better known as Peanut Butter Wolf\u2014which itself was a play on Public Enemy\u2019s \u201cMy Uzi Weighs a Ton,\u201d the movie starts out at a house party thrown by Wolf. It sets up the loose community vibe as a number of Stones Throw artists and affiliates are just hanging out while Wolf spins records and Dam-Funk gives an impromptu performance. While there\u2019s nothing groundbreaking about watching people hanging out, it does show that Stones Throw isn\u2019t just a business\u2014it\u2019s more than that. It then leads in to Wolf\u2019s youth, examining his early love for music and collecting records and then meeting the friends who would become the core of his foundation. It also leads into the meeting of Charizma, who became Wolf\u2019s fast friend and musical collaborator. As Wolf\u2019s interest began to lean more heavily toward hip-hop, he and Charizma began to focus on making it. Unfortunately, the combination of a lousy record contract and the death of Charizma while being car-jacked in 1993 seemed destined to stop the story before it began.<\/p>\n<p>After taking an extended break from music, Wolf became determined that his work with Charizma would be heard. But after being unable to find a label to release the record, Wolf formed Stones Throw in 1996. From that point, the movie drops the linear approach for the most part, dividing into chapters that each play like mini-documentaries in the midst of the larger story. In the second chapter, the film focuses on the current Stones Throw artists and then goes backwards to the \u201cMadlib Invazion\u201d, the integration of J Dilla (a.k.a. Jay Dee), the MF Doom collaboration, and then the lean years at the label to its rebound. Practically speaking, there\u2019s no reason why a linear progression couldn\u2019t have been used. All of the chapters are so self-contained that it doesn\u2019t detract from the overall narrative of Stones Throw as being a place that is, in the words of ?uestlove, \u201cembracing the unembraced.\u201d The later chapters return to a relatively clear timeline, but jumping from the past to the present to the past to the present again may be off-putting for the casual viewer because if you don\u2019t already know some of the story, you\u2019ll be lost to what happened when. There are some dates in the movie, but once those drop, it\u2019s anyone\u2019s guess as to what year it is.<\/p>\n<p>But where <i>Our Vinyl Weighs a Ton<\/i> succeeds with no question is in the sheer amount of archival footage of performances and studio sessions, as well as candid behinds the scenes shots, that show that the Stones Throw tribe is just a bunch of fun to be around. Even the \u201cmysterious\u201d Madlib is revealed to be as goofy and personable as the more gregarious members of the label. There is some discussion on how the changing music landscape has affected the label and how sometimes they\u2019ve put out records with little to no commercial appeal. As such, the message is clear: the money isn\u2019t the point. The label has embraced sounds beyond hip-hop, which is something of a continuation of Wolf\u2019s teenage years, when anything counter-cultural perked his ears. Through interviews with everyone from Kanye West to Ariel Pink, the film also shows Wolf to be a tastemaker as well as music maker.<\/p>\n<p>Still, there are some unanswered questions. Why is there no recent interviews with Jeff Jank, Wolf\u2019s childhood friend who everyone considered to be\u00a0both the nuts and bolts guy behind the label\u2019s day-to-day operations and the creator of the visual look of the early releases? Why did Madlib take a break from the mic? And for heavens sake, why is Peanut Butter Wolf called Peanut Butter Wolf? But if you don\u2019t mind a few loose ends, this is a worthwhile look at both a label and an era of hip-hop that\u2019s nearly forgotten.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As much as artists drove the alternative movement, the influence that labels had can\u2019t be underestimated.
