Beat Mining With The Vinyl Hoover – BBC Crate Digging Documentary

Release date: 28 March 2009

Broadcaster Toby Amies digs into the archives to discover the value and significance of old vinyl.
He uncovers a network of dealers and buyers, supplying a community of 'crate diggers' and 'beat miners' and a world in which samples from records bought for a few pence in a car boot sale can provide the basis for a million-selling hit.

Crate digging and sampling culture is examined in the 45 minute BBC documentary entitled Beat Mining With The Vinyl Hoover.  Notable interviewees include Steinski, 45 King, Tuff City’s Aaron Fuchs, Mr. Scruff, and more.
