Im Tryna Tell Ya

A documentary of Chicago Footwork and Juke scene In spring 2012 We went to Chicago to document the Footwork Scene When we got home and started reviewing the footage we realised we had just filmed our first full length documentary A scene ingrained in the lineage of the City itself filled with effervescent dancers storytellers and beatmakers It was singlehandedly the most unique and indepth tour we had ever experienced Featuring key players on the scene such as DJ Rashad DJ Spinn Manny Traxman Arpebu The team navigated through the Windy City living with the GHETTOTEKNITIANZ of Teklife They slept on floors sofas and in dodgy motels with their charming hosts All the while managing to obtain unseen footage from the finest Producers Footworkers and the good people of ChiTown Its taken our team a long and painstaking while to put this together We hope to do the people who shared their homes talent and ultimately their lives with us proud
